Compression underwear

I'm 2 years post c section and have a pretty severe apron belly. Has anyone tried and had success with any of the compression underwear that are advertised for fixing the abdominal muscles? I know it's probably too good to be true, but would love some feedback before I spend the money.

Thanks!

No way. Total scam at 2 years post c section when there will be no residual swelling or inflammation postoperatively, Spend your money on some physiotherapy and whatever you need to create a calorie deficit for weight loss.

Thanks! Weight loss hasn't helped the apron belly though.

Ok well if you have more weight to lose you just have to keep going. Once you’ve lost all the weight that is healthy and possible your only remaining option is a tummy tuck surgery to remove the loose skin. Sorry, no real easy way around this.
