Bioflect® Compression Leggings with Bioactive Raised Massaging Knit - for Support and Comfort

These compression leggings were recommended by my physical therapist for my lympho/lipedema knees and legs. I was hesitant of how the upper part of these leggings would affect my gut issues from several surgeries, but I’ve found the high waistband and lighter compression on the tummy area to be quite comfortable. Update: I’ve worn this pair and another pair almost daily for over a month. They seem to be very durable and wash up nicely. These are thicker leggings. Great for cooler temps. As far as getting these on, once I figured out how to do it (definitely do not use the “scrunch” method recommended on the package) I find these go on relatively easily and without pain. Tip: fold them inside out until you have a lower leg amount about the length of a knee high. Pull on up to your knee (like you’d put on a knee high sock). At this point the rest of the legging should be folded back over your calves so that the crotch is inside out at your ankles. Now begin taking about 4-6” and unfold above your knees. Do this again until the legging is about mid-thigh. At this point you can just unfold them the rest of way up over your belly and make any minor adjustments you need to. Reverse the process when you take them off and they’ll be ready to go the next day. The whole process takes me less than a minute and is pain free. Hope this is helpful for anyone with painful legs.

I LOVE these compression leggings. I ordered one pair to try them out. After trying them out, I just placed another order for more. The suggested sizing works well for me. Using the included instructions, I was able to pull them on with no problem. The fit is comfortable for me. I frequently wear yoga pants and do yoga, and these fit in very well with my wardrobe. I really like that they are so comfortable, they allow me to go barefoot, and that the compression covers a lot more than just wearing compression socks. What a great find that meets an important need for me!

I was happy that the size I normally wear fit! I’m 5’2 140lbs. I have lipedema, and wanted something compression during the day. So far they seem to work well. The indents make my legs look like a mermaid when I take them off. I also see that they’re made in Italy! Which is almost always good quality. Getting them on is a common struggle, but they have to be snug. They are pretty comfortable once you get them on. They stretch really well. I don’t feel so much soreness before bed.

Good compression. Took getting used to the seams before I stopped noticing (maybe it was stretched by then?) Great relief post-surgery for Lipedema when I was ready to switch to normal compression. Will say: it's super long (like covering 2 thirds of my feet) and insanely high waisted (came almost to my bra). Plus, kinda wish they'd knock several inches off the waist (length). For ref: 4"10 162lbs Considerations: trying the capri version, should be good for my height.

These are very comfortable kinda massages you when you wear them. There good quality. I would purchase again.

5”4”/270/3x Love the fit. The texture keeps your legs lightly energized. I’m not sure about reducing swelling, as that is not my condition. But I’m in less pain, and I can move a little better. A bit too long. I like the high waist- and it is all the way up to my ribs. Will buy another pair: trying the 2x capri

I could barely hold the fabric in my hands without feeling the heebie-jeebies from the texture of the fabric and was wondering how in the world I would even be able to try them on. I got the pants leg as far as halfway up my calf then I was like, nope can’t do it. I can’t wear them. They are super small, but look like they have a lot of stretch, but there is just so much texture on the pants and the fabric is not soft at all. It’s rough.

I'm just 24 hrs into these & am starting with a 4 star rating. New to the whole compression gear as I'm working to self-manage loose skin from significant weight loss (work in process) & searching for a practitioner to diagnose my lipedema. My goals are to reduce swelling in my ankles, have moderate compression & provide some relief to my lower body. I say manage your expectations because I read reviews about how compressed these are (or are not). The description clearly states MODERATE compression. With these, expect to have some firmness & hold but nothing that a high compression garment would offer. I chose this brand due to the sizing: if I went based off measurements w/ other brands, I fell between 3 sizes ranging from a L to a 4X. That was too confusing. Being 5'7", I just went with an XL which is close enough (I wear 14/16, hourglass shaped w/ hips 46", waist 35"). I was NOT happy with the price (>$60) but thought I'd give the massaging aspect a try vs my compression athletic leggings. Putting these on requires that you pay attention to what you're doing. Anyone of a certain age who lived in pantyhose knows this: nails are not your friends. I put on gloves at first because I didn't want to create any holes on 1st try in case I wanted to return them. They went on alright: you have to work section by section, slowly, attentively. You can't just start pulling them up. You have to watch where your fingers are at all times. They reach high above my waistline, just under my breasts, which works fine for me. They do not roll down at all. After wearing them for a few hours in the evening, I took them off so that they'd be good to wear all day for work (remote desk job). The massage lines were gone within a half hour after removing them. Next morning, I did not wear gloves the 2nd time and didn't have any issues. The stretchiness was fine. I was able to get everything in place. You have to be very mindful when you up past your thighs to get things in place behind your butt so that the crotch lines up. Shorter people may have an easier time with this. There was not enough material to pull down over my heels. I do find that the crotch does drop, especially with a lot of up/downs during the day & when you have to use the bathroom. They do bunch in the back of my knees a bit but am able to smooth everything out when I go to the bathroom which helps w/ the crotch drop (lol). I can see if I went a size smaller that they'd be more sheer but the thickness of the material based on the size I have is right on point: they are not sheer (do not show my underwear). I could wear these like regular leggings if I so choose (& that was my goal). I would never order a legging that isn't black. I took a walk in them at lunch & there is no chafing or wear showing between the legs. They should have pockets to make them more functional. Huge miss if you're trying to combine everyday wear with function! Time will tell on how well they are in quality & sturdiness. Given the price, material, quality & anticipated sturdiness, these are NOT worth the high cost. I would not pay more than $30 for these. It's terrible how companies think it's OK to basically extort customers with expensive items ... seeing compression over $100 is just ridiculous! I will have to see MAJOR improvements for me to purchase these again (& see pockets on them). I'll handwash them tonight & plan to wear them a few times each week. For the most part, I'll plan on sticking to my $25 compression athletic leggings WITH pockets. I will update my review if there are any issues or improvements! Good luck

Lovely so comfortable, I wear these all day instead of gym pants. 178cm tall 115kg. Size XXL These are the best compression tights Ive every bought, although I haven't bought compression pants in about 15 years. These fit well land are easy to get on/off and the fabric ribbing seems to massage the legs. I feel like these are working as my legs are feeling better. If only they had pockets.

Fit: great Effectiveness: excellent Comfort: perfect I love these, they really help with my heavy leg lymphadema . Definitely would recommend, even at the price (though would be great if cheaper).

Too expensive for what they are.

Fit well, according to size chart. Very comfortable and breathable. Legs feel like they are getting a gentle massage all day. I love these and will buy another pair. They are challenging to apply and it does help to use gloves to smooth them out at you pull them up. There is rather a prominent seam on the inside of each leg but it does not affect the comfort. They are quite a thick fabric and I suspect they might be very warm in summer. It would be ideal if the company could make a more sheer pair for summer wear. I really do notice a beneficial difference between these infrared leggings compared with my more expensive compression stockings. I highly recommend these leggings to anyone who experiences tired, aching legs.

I bought these to help manage swelling due to lipedema. I find them to be comfortable and they do help make my legs feel lighter or more supported. I wore these on long flights and for days with lots of standing at amusement parks, etc. I’ve had these a few years now and they’ve held up well.
