Does wearing one help lose belly fat? Simply wearing shapewear alone will not have a lasting effect on your amount of belly fat. The purpose of shapewear for daily use is to help hold in your tummy, making it appear flatter so that your clothes fit better.

Latina women, aspiring for an hourglass-shaped and curvaceous figure, noticed the remarkable effects of Fajas Colombianas on their bodies. They embraced these shapewear garments, appreciating their ability to accentuate their curves. From there, the popularity of fajas skyrocketed!

Contrary to popular belief, fajas have no relation whatsoever to losing weight. They might give you a slimmer look and motivate you to go on a diet and exercise, but not more than that. Some compression garments also help tighten the skin, preventing the undesirable flappy skin look.

The first time you wear a faja colombiana you might have to wear it for a few hours at a time and keep increasing the time until you get use to it. Do not wear your everyday Colombian girdle while you sleep. When you sleep you want your body to relax and rejuvenate without the compression.
