MARIAE FAJAS Tummy Control Shapewear Bodysuit - Colombian Open Bust Body Shaper for Women | Slimming Waist Trainer for Postpartum, Workout & Everyday Wear

This is going to be a thorough review since I’ve tried a million of these garments and hope to help someone who may have my same problems.Im 5’0, bust 39, waist 32, hips 47. I bought a 3x. I had liposuction of pretty much my whole body as well as tummy tuck and could not tolerate all the swelling. I’m three weeks post op and I just thought I wasn’t drinking enough water which is why my swelling was not subsiding but turns out I was using the wrong garment this whole time. Now swelling isn’t just an issue for aesthetic reasons, I was always hunched over in pain because my belly was always distended and my lower back was sore. I also had hard lumps of fluids accumulated along my groin from not being compressed enough. Whenever I compressed my belly, the water would shift right to the inner thigh area. I did lymphatic massages but they were too painful and the lumps would just come right back. Most garments do not compress all the way to the groin due to being crotch less which caused a lot of problems with fluid shifting in weird areas. Marena garments are comfy but ineffective for aggressive liposuction I’ve found. The material for this garment is stretchy but still thick and great at really compressing. The thigh portion REALLY gets up in your groin area, leaving no gaps for fluid to shift to which is one of the best things about this garment.Another great thing is the waist trainer style top which allows you to adjust it according to which stage you’re in so you don’t have to keep buying more garments. I bought a 3x because my hips are 47 inches and it fit perfectly around them. My waist is smaller, 32 inches but because it’s adjustable I just fasten it onto the tightest clip and it works great. I will say though, I have a pretty short torso so the top actually covers my boobs when it’s supposed to stay under them. But this is just due to my body type, however, I’m able to remedy this by just leaving the first top clips undone and it works out fine. My recommendation is to stick to the sizing chart exactly according to your hip size and you should be fine.What I also like about this garment is that you can access and cover up your crotch easily. I hated other garments where your business would just be exposed all the time. The opening is perfect for using the bathroom and the flap allows you to completely cover up everything easily again.This garment hits right below the knees which is good if you had knee lipo like I did. Also the bottom has a lace detail which is cute but is also great because it doesn’t roll up.Getting on the garment wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be. When you first put your legs in and look at the waist trainer portion you’re like how the hell am I gonna do this but the trick is to lay down and it makes it much easier. I was able to do it by myself in about 5-10 minutes. If you’re earlier in the post op stage you may need a second person to help you since it could be a work out.Overall: if you need good inner thigh and tummy compression this is for you. Follow the size chart according to your hips, not waist.
