Perfect after surgery recovery
I'm a 2X breast cancer survivor and have had 5 breast surgeries (among other surgeries). I say that so it's understood that I have had to wear my fair share of compression garmets. I originally bought this for use after diep flap surgery (breast surgery #4) but it didn't seem right when I attempted to put it on. It seemed too small and too hard to put on. I felt it would have hurt the healing incisions on my stomach just trying to get it on. Also those incisions required daily care and i had drains to deal with at first. Fast forward 3 months later to my revision surgery and it is perfect. This surgery involved fat graphing to the breast using fat liposuctioned from the abdomen and saddlebag area. 1 day after surgery I am comfortable and i feel well compressed in my whole abdomen area (I have a long torso).Going to the bathroom hasn't been too bad either. I just unhook the clasps and go. I have been hooking only 2 of the 3 clasps down there. The only thing that makes it a little difficult for me is I don't have all of my arm range of motion from prior surgeries but I still make it work. After using the restroom, I pull the back flap forward as much as I can and then hook it to the front flap.With all my other compression garmets usually I become uncomfortable somewhere or I don't feel properly compressed where I need to be. A couple of my good ones seem to cut into the top of my inner thigh after a few hours. This one has been so comfortable. The nurse told me to bring my compression garmet to surgery and they will put it on me afterwards. So I woke up from surgery with this garmet on yesterday morning. I noticed the right side shoulder strap was on twisted on both my compression garmet and bra (most of the work was done on the right side). I was starting to correct it and straighten them out but thought it might have been done on purpose so I left it that way. After seeing some of the comments complaining about straps cutting into their shoulder, im starting to think it's why they did my straps this way. The whole strap cannot cut into my shoulder now. I don't know for sure if that's why they twisted those straps but i thought i'd pass it along in hopes that it helps someone else with that issue.Before and after diep flap surgery I was 5'6 and 181 pounds. My measurements before yesterday's revision surgery was 40-35-43. I was on the border of both size large and XL but I'm really glad I had the large for this surgery. Luckily it was a perfect fit but if it was any tighter it wouldn't have worked.I hardly ever write reviews but as I'm sitting here comfortably 1 day after surgery (with nothing else to do lol) I felt i should share my experience with this garmet since it's not rated 5 stars. That held me back from purchasing it for months and then when I did it wasn't right for the first surgery 3 months ago but it was perfect for this surgery. I'm glad i didn't rate this back then. Sometimes a garmet isn't the right one for certain situations but it doesn't mean it isn't perfect for others. If after washing and wearing this again it holds up well, I will be purchasing another one. As of now this is a 5 star item for me

Size M for senior woman 5'7" 165 lbs with extreme edema after 5 way heart surgery, kidney failure, and 3 brain surgeries, so body in ugly shape. Dress for son's wedding required taming buldges from severe edema and getting old. Researched a TON and appreciated reviews, which I relied on. Overnight delivery, minimal packing. As others said my first thought is no way this is gonna fit. Bottom went on easily and I lied down to close each hook as i pressed my body in, graphic but the only reason I am leaving review is to help others. In short order hooks closed, zipper easily up, straps over the shoulders, and boom badda bing, all good. Other reviews stated it did not have firm tummy control but I disagree. This garmet restored my hour glass shaped figure from pre health issues ( curvy/not thin) and seriously changed the look of the dress. Pic in garmet and dress, of an old beaten woman who took a leap of faith and this garmet delivered. True to size, well made, once on body not too uncomfortable, and did it's job beyond measure. Give it a try if you are on the fence. I was suspect, but it delivered.

Almost A+
I really like it, but I’ve got problems with the adjustment strap at the front. Using their photo as an example, the silver piece on the adjustment strap digs into your skin. I have a short torso so not sure if that’s the reason, but I have to wrap it to avoid irritation. Other than that, amazing fit. Easy to put on. No bone which makes for a comfortable wear.

Great product if it fits. Size up.
This faja fits tighter than others so I had to do a return—but they had me keep it.After I lost about 20 pounds I tried it again and it works great, really gives me a shape but I’m able to breathe. What I don’t like is the hook and eye crotch so I’m gonna revise the suit with Velcro or something easier and I’m ordering one in black now because I like it so much. I had bought the first one on sale and this is substantially more so it was a good investment for them. But it works better than those pull on spandex shapers so ima keep using these for a shaper.
