3. How does shapewear work?

The waist cincher/waist trainer/corset: Shapes your waist into an hour glass figure by applying compression on the middle section reducing your waist and enhancing it into an hour glass figure. Waist trainers are not recommended for cardio training and conditioning, they are recommended when doing strenght training or weight lifting. They will increase water loss by making you sweat more because of the thermal action that latex provides.

This is NOT a garment that will make you lose weight by itself. The waist trainer does not make you burn fat but it rather distributes the fat off you waistline and help you enhance and contour your waistline. Wearing the waist trainer while working out and eating healthy is the secret to obtaining a great body.

Faja/Girdle: Women in Latin America have been wearing these garments mostly for the health benefits. For back support, to correct posture, to regain figure back quickly after giving birth, to control appetite, etc. After wearing it consistently, women have noticed the body shaping benefits as well. The traditional faja/girdle has come a long way in its design and functionality. We offer a more modern version of the traditional faja.

4. What are the benefits of wearing compression garments?

Compression garments are pieces of clothing, such as socks, pantyhose, sleeves, etc., that provide support that is especially useful for people who have to stand for long periods, or people with poor circulation. The garments can come in varying degrees of compression. The higher degrees require a doctor’s prescription. Compression garments worn on the legs can help prevent deep vein thrombosis and reduce swelling, especially while traveling.

Knee-high compression stockings are used not only to help increase circulation, but also to help prevent the formation of blood clots in the lower legs. They also aid in the treatment of ulcers of the lower legs.

Unlike traditional dress or athletic stockings and socks, compression stockings use stronger elastics to create significant pressure on the legs. By compressing the surface veins, arteries and muscles, they force circulating blood through narrower channels. As a result, the arterial pressure is increased, which causes more blood to return to the heart and less blood to pool in the feet.”

Post-operative compression garments are frequently utilized following cosmetic surgery. These devices minimize swelling, decrease pain, decrease discomfort,  help remodel tissue and increase blood flow.

In addition to the health benefits mentioned above these compression garments are also designed to make your entire body look better by enhancing and squeezing in the right areas to make you look slimmer, firmer and curvier.

5. How do I know my size?

 We have created our own size chart to help you select the right size when placing an order. We recommend that you follow the waist measuments rather than going by weight and height for a more accurate size selection.
