Benefits of using a belt after a cesarean section
Support and comfort during recovery
One of the main reasons some women choose to use a belt after their C-section is because support and comfort that it provides. In fact, the belt maintains the abdominal muscles and helps support the weight of the stomach, which can reduce the feeling of tightness or pain in the area of the scar. Furthermore, the support offered by the belt can also help improve posture and relieve back pain.
Improvement of the silhouette
After a cesarean section, it is normal for the stomach to take some time to return to its original appearance. The belt can help shape the silhouette by supporting the abdominal muscles and slightly compressing the stomach. This compression can promote better distribution of adipose tissue and improve the aesthetic appearance of the stomach during convalescence.
