I am 5'3" 165 and ordered this in a XL because I needed room for the abdominal board and some padding. This is the short version, and since I'm short I thought it would work. However, the straps really rub in and after half a day it felt like a sunburn. My husband had a genius idea of cutting a shirt and putting it under and has worked perfectly. The opening at the crotch works really well, even though I was concerned at first, there has been no issues so far ( underwear for discretion:)). The compression is nice, not too tight at all and the fabric has more give because it is a step one recovery and not a daily worn faja for shaping. I normally wear a size medium clothes for reference. Legs are not too tight and are like spandex shorts. Overall it is nice, but even if you are short, I would consider the taller version because of the strap rubbing issue. If not, a shirt under works fine. Review: Comfortable and quality product. - This was good support for surgery recovery. I especially liked that the crotch was gusseted. Better than the one I left the hospital with, for sure. Was a little too large, however, but that was on me not the brand. Wish I would have gone smaller in size.

Go for the Marena!
I am absolutely thrilled with my MARENA SFBHS Stage 1 Short Length Girdle with High-Back and Hook-and-eye Front Closure – Tummy Control. This surgery girdle has truly been a game-changer in my recovery process. First and foremost, the high-back design provides excellent support and compression to my entire back area. It has helped alleviate any discomfort or pain that I was experiencing post-surgery, allowing me to move around more freely and comfortably. The added support has also improved my posture, which is an added bonus. The hook-and-eye front closure is incredibly convenient and easy to use. Unlike other girdles I have tried in the past, I don't have to struggle to put it on or take it off. The secure closure ensures that the girdle stays in place throughout the day, providing consistent compression and support to my abdomen. Speaking of compression, the tummy control feature of this girdle is exceptional. It has helped reduce swelling and inflammation in my abdominal area, promoting faster healing and a smoother recovery. I have noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my tummy since I started using this girdle. The short length design of the girdle is perfect for me. It provides the necessary support and compression to my midsection without restricting movement in my legs or hips. I can wear it comfortably under my clothes without feeling restricted or uncomfortable. The quality of the MARENA SFBHS Stage 1 Short Length Girdle is outstanding. The material is soft, breathable, and durable. It doesn't irritate my skin or cause any discomfort, even when worn for extended periods of time. The girdle has maintained its shape and compression even after multiple washes, which is impressive. Overall, I highly recommend the MARENA SFBHS Stage 1 Short Length Girdle with High-Back and Hook-and-eye Front Closure – Tummy Control to anyone undergoing surgery or needing extra support and compression in their abdominal area. It has truly made a difference in my recovery journey, providing the comfort, support, and compression that I needed.

Soft with great compression, but not made for tall people
I wanted to love this product. First, it arrived with the seal on top broken, which made me suspect that it had been tried on. Since I purchased this as a medical compression garment for post-surgery use, this made me uncomfortable. I did try it on, and the material was amazing—so soft, with the perfect amount of compression. Unfortunately, if you are taller than 5'6" (I'm 5'8"), this will be too short for you, and the straps will dig into your shoulders, causing discomfort over time. If you're on the shorter side, you'll likely love this garment. Unfortunately, I will have to return it. Update: I ordered a Large (previously a Medium) hoping that the straps would be longer and the new straps would fit better. Unfortunately, there is no difference, and the straps are still too short. I'm so disappointed because this is by far the best quality and softest garment with perfect compression, but the straps literally cut off circulation to my arms and cause pain.

Great product
I highly recommend this product. I bought it in several different sizes now as I’ve sized down since my surgery it was by far the most comfortable.

Regret that I bought this
I really paid over 150 for this garment. It’s the thinnest, most unflattering compression garment I’ve ever bought (and the most expensive). It did absolutely nothing for me. It gives no shape, and did not give me any compression. I regret this buy 100% and don’t understand why it’s so expensive. Could’ve gotten the same thing for thirty dollars elsewhere.

Fit is too large based on measurements
Bought this post lipo. Based on measurements, bought a Small, which was much too large and provided no compression even on tightest setting. Of course, can’t return once its been tried on so that was $147 wasted. Ordered XXS and it provides sufficient compression on middle hooks, but within a week when the swelling has started to go down, it will also be too large. The material is stretchy which makes it more comfortable but also means it doesn’t provide much compression unless its very tight. The material is also very smooth which means its easy on the skin, especially where there is swelling. However, the straps hit right at the crease of my armpit and rub/chafe. I had to unhook them after a couple hours because I had red blisters where the hook rubs. It seems like the straps are set very wide compared to normal placement of bra straps and as a result, they are very uncomfortable. Overall, I don’t think this is very well designed for post surgery.

This faja was the best one out of several that I tried. It was the one recommended by my surgeon for my mommy make over. Would definitely recommend and have ordered the size smaller as well.
