Do these have real benefits with exercising or lasting waist slimming?
I used to have a flat tummy with abs but always consciously stood up straight and "held it in".
Working an office job alone behind a desk and just slumped and relaxed, we'll definitely not a flat tummy now.
I bought a simple Velcro waist trainer and it certainly helps with the silhouette and and makes me more conscious of my posture. It also helps for a bit after I take it off.
Does anyone have long term experience or suggestions?
Im thinking of trying a corset too.Do these have real benefits with exercising or lasting waist slimming?

Tight lacing absolutely does work. I have a natural hourglass shape but in my early twenties rigorously tightlaced with a steel boned corset and saw a difference. Ten years later no matter how much weight I gain there's usually a 15 inch difference between waist and hips. I wear a waist cincher to work and it protects my back. It forces me to stand tall and I can't slouch. If I don't wear it I'm crippled by the end of the day as I naturally slouch0 -
If you naturally slouch it's because you have a weak core. Wearing a cincher doesn't improve it, strength exercise does.I wear a waist cincher to work and it protects my back. It forces me to stand tall and I can't slouch. If I don't wear it I'm crippled by the end of the day as I naturally slouch

I've just seen you on your other thread
Someone in your profession really should understand physiology much better than you seem to ...if you "naturally slouch" it means your core needs to be strengthened not weakened with support
Remember what happens to muscles when limbs are put in plaster? Yes they atrophy ...muscle wastage ...it is important for your core to be strong
I would strongly recommend ditching your elastic and hitting the free weights section of your gym for a decent progressive resistance programme6 -

This.
Tightlacing does work. But only if you continue to tightlace. I have the same proportions as you and I have never tightlaced for more than the odd day here and there.
Your waist cincher is compensating for a weak core. I have underdeveloped lower back muscles from being an overflexible gymnast back when we didn't know to keep imbalances in check. If I stop strength training and stand on my feet for an extended period of time I get sore and slouchy. It's muscle weakness.
Your lack of knowledge as a medical professional is astounding.5 -
I thought it was progress for women to leave the Nineteenth Century and along with it, abandon clothing that was more torture device than anything else.6

Ah now a nice corset can be really good fun
But as a body modifier I am completely with you3 -
SO not healthy. Doctors do not condone this because of the strain it puts in your organs.0
