Grace and Emily, founders of Belayan

Created by Grace & Emily, sisters — physiotherapist & new mum

Emily is a physiotherapist. For 8 years, she's been supporting mums through postpartum recovery.

And every week, the same question comes up: "Why won't my belly go back?"

Grace, her sister, had just given birth. She'd lived the same frustration — girdles that dig in, belts that slip, solutions that never deliver on their promise. Together, they discovered bengkung, a circular compression technique used in Malaysia for centuries.

They didn't build another gadget. They took knowledge that already worked and put it into a pair of pants you slip on in 10 seconds.

Why it's different

Others compress the front. Nemuvia wraps all the way round.

Just like Malaysian bengkung has done for 500 years.

Ordinary belt vs Nemuvia

✕ Ordinary belt

  • Only compresses the front of the belly
  • Rides up and slips within the hour
  • Shows through your clothes
  • Zero lasting results — everything drops back the moment you take it off

✔ Nemuvia

  • 360° — front, sides and back
  • Slips on in 10 seconds like a pair of pants
  • Disappears under any outfit
  • Visible difference from week 2–3

Inspired by Malaysian bengkung — a criss-cross compression technique used for 500 years to tighten the abdominal band after childbirth.

The exclusive Nemuvia mechanism

The silhouette you want to see in the mirror. In just a few seconds.

Adapts to the tummy and supports it 360°, not just at the front like a classic shapewear garment. And it allows you to breathe..

X support

Two bands cross over the tummy and keep it in place through a gentle traction effect, like two hands placed specifically on an area that needs support.

Three distributed zones

The tension is distributed across three areas rather than a single elastic band. More gentle, more uniform, and designed for sensitive skin.

And you breathe

No concentrated compression: no creases, no marks, no discomfort. All day long.

Frequently Asked Questions

As soon as you put it on, the effect is immediate: the tummy is supported and appears flatter. The 360° crossover band does more than provide temporary compression: with regular use, it gently guides the abdominal muscles into the correct position, day after day. Most customers notice a difference within 3 to 6 weeks, although this varies depending on individual body shape and frequency of use.
Absolutely not. The seamless fabric sits smoothly against the skin without creases, and its completely smooth surface fits discreetly under any clothing, even skinny jeans or a fitted dress. No visible lines, no bulges.
Absolutely not. Contrary to what you might think, time does not cause the separation of the abdominal muscles that can occur after pregnancy to automatically close. The 360° circular compression works on the abdominal wall regardless of when you wear it. Whether you gave birth 3 months or 10 years ago, the internal Velcro waistband supports your body's recovery in exactly the same way.
No. This is precisely the problem with traditional shapewear: it compresses in one area and pushes the skin upwards or downwards around the elastic, creating the dreaded "sausage effect". The Nemuvia Women crossover band distributes pressure across three areas simultaneously (front, sides and back), rather than concentrating it in one spot. The result: no bulges, no lifting, a more defined silhouette from morning to evening.
Yes, it is designed to be gentle on the scar, with seamless fabric that never compresses the sensitive area. However, if your C-section was recent, it is important to wait until the scar has completely healed and get approval from your doctor or midwife before wearing it, usually after a few weeks, to allow the skin and tissues to heal properly. If in doubt, always consult your doctor before wearing it again.
Choose your usual clothing size, then check our size guide to confirm the correct size: simply measure your waist and hips and compare your measurements with the chart. If you are between two sizes, always choose the larger one: comfort comes first.
No. Unlike traditional shapewear that slacks and compresses, our crossover band supports you without limiting your natural movement: it supports your posture rather than doing the work for you. You can wear it whenever you want: it is not a garment that will make your body dependent on it.
Yes, it is actually recommended to wear it every day for the best results. The fabric is specifically designed for this purpose: breathable, invisible and comfortable from morning to evening, so nothing stops you from making it part of your daily routine, just like any other item of underwear. Many of our customers order several so they can wear one every day without even noticing it.

They fit very well and do what they are supposed to, although I ordered a size M and, even though it is my usual size, they are a little large. I'll order a size S to see how it fits...

It's really excellent. Other products couldn't support my lower abdomen and were too loose, but this one provides great support. I'm eight months pregnant and size M fits well. I really like it.

I bought one and liked it so much that I bought another five. I was pregnant and had some abdominal discomfort, but size S provided firm support without making it difficult to breathe, so I think I'll be able to use it comfortably after childbirth too. It's a bonus that the material isn't cotton and that it can be worn like a support band over underwear.

Lovely briefs, they provide good support. They run large, so you need to order one size smaller.

If you order one size smaller than your usual size, they seem to fit a little better.
