I can't believe it's only been three months since Ninel Conde and her baby daddy, Giovani Medina, welcomed their little boy, Emmanuel, to the world. She's in such good shape you would never guess she just had a baby. Not only is she significantly slimmer but the girl's stomach is as flat as a board–and trust me, it's not thanks to a tummy tuck! You're not going to believe what she's been doing to bounce back!

Ninel posted a picture of herself that literally blew my mind. She's seen posing in a sports bra showing off her super flat stomach. What the hell is this woman's secret, you ask? Well apparently Ninel's been using an old-school Latin trick to slim down. She's been wearing a faja day in and day out and using a weight reduction cream to help cinch in that tiny waist, Insolidus Crema to be exact.
"As promised … for all who asked me which reductive cream and what faja, here is the combination and the result in less than one month after giving birth to my prince. Without diet or exercise, breastfeeding alone, faja and reductive cream! They really do work. And drink plenty of water," Ninel captioned one of the faja pictures on Instagram. A few weeks later she posted another update with the caption:
The best thing we can do after giving birth to our baby is to wear a faja, breastfeed and use a reductive cream that helps lift and firm tissues. At a month and 5 days since the arrival of my #BbEmmanuel I have lost 11 kilos and I'm missing the last three I need to exercise. Soon I will give you details of where I got my faja and cream and DVD with all the tips that helped me during and after my pregnancy.
Wait, so you mean to tell me that Ninel lost almost 25 pounds and reshaped her waist JUST from wearing a faja and using a firming cream? That's what she's saying and you know what? I believe her. Before you call BS, let me tell you that I've met a number of moms who have slimmed down after pregnancy all with the help of shapewear and corsets. She's also not the first celebrity to try this traditional stay fit method either. Jessica Alba wore a double corset for three months straight after giving birth to her second daughter, Haven. She literally wore it day AND night! Kim Kardashian is another one who's constantly using fajas to shrink her waist. It seems like this thing actually works. How about that?
