The Jobst compression stocking collection includes medical legwear for women that offers high levels of compression in fashionable designs. UltraSheer support hose looks similar to regular stockings and is barely distinguishable by most people. The Petite UltraSheer Medical Legwear Thigh High compression stocking comes with a lace silicone band.
Unlike regular stockings, support hose uses elastic to create pressure that wraps your leg with graduating support stemming from the ankle. This reduces swelling and increases circulation. However, the elastic does not dampen the look or feel of the hosiery. The nylon and spandex yarn is combined with a silicone blend to make Jobst stocking easy to put on and comfortable with extended wear.
Jobst medical stockings can be found at ContourMD. The site offers various women's styles, including maternity hose. You'll find a variety of styles and designs that fit your budget.
