A Mexican woman in her 20s is garnering attention after she revealed how she reduced her waistline from 15 inches to 11.8 inches by wearing a corset. The woman has reportedly been wearing the corset for years due to a rare ligament-joint condition.

Mexican woman Ruth Lujan, 26, recently posted on her TikTok account that she had shrunk her waistline to 11.8 inches, according to the New York Post on Nov. 24 (local time). Lujan’s actual waistline is 15 inches, and her photos and videos show her wearing a corset to trim her waist to an ant’s waist.
The former ballerina was referred to a doctor by her coach, who noticed a problem with her movement. After examining him, doctors diagnosed him with joint hypermobility syndrome. Joint hypermobility syndrome is a rare condition in which the ligaments that support joints become abnormally stretched.
The syndrome causes symptoms such as muscle and joint fatigue, pain, and stiffness.
“I was devastated when I was first diagnosed,” says Lujan, “I was so sad that I would never be able to do ballet again.” Her doctor recommended that she try a corset to protect her muscles and ligaments and alleviate her symptoms, and after some deliberation, she began wearing a corset under her clothes with underwear.
The actual corset helped her maintain good posture and alleviate her symptoms. Lujan explains that wearing a corset has also given him back his confidence. “I was empowered by the fact that I could shape my body the way I wanted,” he says, “and I’m proud of the way I look.”
Lujan is now an influencer with over 1 million followers on TikTok, Instagram, and more.
