Fajas Shapewear Compression Garment After Liposuction Tummy Control Body Shaper Lifter for Women

Not the worst shapewear I’ve bought
This shapewear was a little tricky to put on at first. I’d recommend hooking the bottom 1-2 hooks before putting it on as it’s hard to see the little buggers well enough to maneuver them together when you’ve got a belly in the way! It’s also easier to hook if you hold the zipper flap out of the way while you’re hooking. I recently had hand surgery so maybe it was more difficult for me because of that. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do it even a week or two ago. Once I got the rhythm down it was fine: exhale, squeeze, hook, breathe. Zipping it was easy after that. It was relatively comfortable — as comfy as these things go, anyway. I didn’t feel constricted or like I couldn’t move or breathe naturally, but I did get a bit of a wedgy and that was with undies. It would probably ride even higher without. The straps are a little uncomfortable. They rub against my arm a bit because they’re rather widely positioned to the outside of your bra straps. As for the shaping… it didn’t work any miracles but it did smooth out the belly rolls. I noticed creasing at the back in a few places – maybe bra strap/back fat areas. I’ll have to try it again when it’s not 1am to see if I can smooth it out better, and also if the chafing of the straps goes away when I put clothes on over it.

Tummy Control
To give a little context, I am 5’ 6”, wear a size 10 in pants, and I ordered a size XL. I got this shapewear bodysuit because I have lost a substantial amount of weight and have some loose skin that I would rather not have jiggling about when I am out. While this bodysuit did not provide a snatched look like it advertised, it did smooth out my tummy and keep the skin in place. I am a larger chested woman (36G), so getting to wear my bra with this is a lifesaver. One issue I did have was with the eyelets and hooks. They did not want to stay hooked. I was able to quickly fix the issue with a pair of pliers. Just squeeze the hooks together a bit to get a more secure connection. While this bodysuit does not accomplish the “snatched”/hold everything in place look, it does an excellent job of smoothing out problem areas while still allowing you to breathe all day. I highly recommend.

Good compression and support, but fit can be a bit snug
This shapewear provides great compression and really helps smooth everything out. The material feels firm yet comfortable once it’s on, and it gives good tummy and waist control without feeling overly stiff. It’s definitely supportive enough for post-surgery recovery or everyday shaping under clothes.The only downside is that the sizing runs a little tight, so getting it on can take some effort the first time. Once adjusted, though, it stays in place well and gives a nice, contoured look.Overall, a solid compression garment that does what it promises supportive, shaping, and high quality, just be sure to double-check your size for the best fit.

More 1950s girdle than compression shapewear.
If you like 1950’s style girdles, this is for you. This shapewear reminds me more of an old-fashioned girdle than modern compression wear. (I can’t speak to its effect for after liposuction but it’s not the best for everyday shapewear.)The fabric has very little stretch through the torso – the material is a dense, tightly woven nylon and not a soft, flexible blend. It features multiple closures (hook-and-eye, zipper, and even a swimsuit-style clasp at the top) which make it feel like it won’t come undone but it requires a lot of energy to put on.Definitely allow extra time to get dressed. I have a true hourglass shape and it took me about 5 minutes to work it up over my hips (I suggest moisturizer before trying that) and another 10 minutes to inhale, hook, zip … inhale, hook, zip … inhale, hook, zip…I followed the size chart and ordered an XL. I’m 5’4″ and it was way too long through the torso – the crotch was way too low – so not the best for petites. While it did smooth out my silhouette and prevent muffin top or rolling at the waist, I didn’t actually lose any inches. Plus, movement was restricted because of the lack of stretch.If you’re looking for something with heavy-duty control and don’t mind the rigid fit, this may work for you.
