So I keep hearing people comment on fajas giving you a “chicken butt” if it’s an open bottom garment. As well as if you get fat transferred to your hips, that the faja will kill the newly transferred fat in hips. I’ve attached a picture of the “chicken butt”. I’m having my BBL and Lipo in 3 days and I’m worried. However, my Dr does not put me in a faja until my 1-week post op visit. He’s going to have an abdominal binder around tummy.

Answer: Compression after BBL Hi and welcome to our forum!Different surgeons have different philosophies regarding the type of garment to wear after BBL. Some prefer evenly distributed compression, some expose the buttock cheeks, and some advocate no garment at all!In our practice, we recommend that a uniform buttock covering compression garment be worn during the first 4-6 weeks after BBL. It is utilized to prevent bleeding and to control swelling. It does not move the fat from its transplanted position.Best wishes...

Answer: Bbl and Faja Thanks for writing,We typically do not like tight garments, esp around the fat grafted buttocks. We use garment from Veronique that are designed for fat grafting. I find them to fit nicely, they don't overly compress the grafted buttocks and the material is soft and comfortable.Good luckStephen M.
