The dangers of tight underwear

Every woman has a love for beauty and hopes to have a devilish figure with a protruding chest and a curved back. For this reason, many women buy tight underwear to wear in order to shape a more perfect body shape and make themselves look more attractive. Nowadays, there are many kinds of body-shaping tight underwear on the market. These underwear have become the "close confidant" of many beauty-loving women. After wearing them, they feel that they can shape cleavage. However, if this kind of underwear is too tight, it will bring many harms.

The dangers of tight underwear

Female breasts are mainly composed of glands, ducts, adipose tissue and fibrous tissue. The size of the breasts is related to the glands and adipose tissue. When the glands are well developed and fat accumulates more, the breasts will naturally be plump. "Shaping bras can create cleavage instantly like magic. They actually use the elasticity of the bra to push the existing fat tissue in the breasts toward the middle of the chest, temporarily giving people the visual impression of fuller breasts.

But what most women don’t know is that long-term compression will not cause the growth of glands and accumulation of fat. On the contrary, it will reduce or prevent the return of lymph fluid in the breast, causing poor circulation of local qi and blood, which may lead to the occurrence of various breast diseases. ”

Body shaping underwear often has the problem of the lower circumference of the bra being too tight, which will affect the blood circulation and supply in the lower part of the breast, cause breast ischemia and spasm, compress the lymph glands in the breast, and make breast hyperplasia more likely to occur. "If girls in puberty dress like this, it is likely to affect the future shape, size and health of their developing breasts."

In addition to posing a threat to the breasts, long-term wearing of body shaping underwear may also affect the body's normal blood circulation and sweat excretion. If it is a one-piece body shaping underwear, it can easily cause the vulva environment to become moist and breed bacteria.

How to wear underwear in a healthy way?

In addition, experts point out that whether it is shapewear or ordinary bras, only correct wearing can be beneficial to breast health. The guidance method is as follows:

Lean forward 45 degrees, put on the bra straps on your shoulders, position the bottom edge of the cup under your chest, and fasten the back hook.

Keep your body tilted, and use your palms to help move the fat on the outside of your breasts from your back to your armpits into the cup. After adjusting both sides, stand up straight.

Pull the back piece down until it is at least level with the bottom edge of your décolletage.

Adjust the strap length so that your nipples are centered in the cups.

Keep standing upright and repeat step 2, making sure the cups completely cover your chest. Shake your hands and move your body around until you feel stable and secure.

Things to note when wearing body shaping underwear:

When choosing shaping bras, you should pay attention to the material, because the material determines the quality. The emphasis of each shaping bra manufacturer lies in the special material and unique cut.

In terms of materials, there are space fiber, Lycra fiber, etc., which indicate their comfort. However, when purchasing, you should pay attention to its elasticity. Some adjustable bras only have 180 degrees, that is, elasticity on the left and right, but no elasticity on the top and bottom. Some are 360 ​​degrees, which can be stretched freely up and down. Since the muscle movement force is greater up and down, if the adjustable bra only has elasticity on the left and right, it will be less comfortable to wear.

In terms of tailoring, you can only find out whether it is suitable for you by trying it on. Adjustable underwear is more close-fitting and has a shaping function. It must be worn for a long time every day, so whether it is breathable and sweat-absorbent can only be known by trying it on.

In addition, there are many styles of shaping bras, and their functions are even more different, so a reminder is still given - be sure to try them on before purchasing.

If you fully understand your needs and the functions of shaping bras, you may want to try this more functional bra. However, shaping bras are not a panacea for a beautiful figure. A balanced diet and exercise are the only way to maintain a slim figure!
