EdemaWear® stockinet utilizes a new textile technology
Fuzzy Wale Elastic Compression (FWC)
Wales (fuzzy corduroy-like material) create a fuzzy nexus with the skin to deliver effective compression of the subcutaneous fat and to move water back to the heart
Between the wales
medical Lycra®® spandex elastic yarn provides compression
There is non-compressed skin between each wale with patent lymphatic vessels
Over time
the wales impresses into the skin creating a “cornrow%XE2%X80? furrow
In each cornrow furrow
tissue compression is high enough to be physiologically useful
