My surgeon only provides a compression binder after his BBL surgery, but I see numerous doctors and patients using a faja after a bbl. In theory, I like the idea of the binder because it guarantees no pressure on the butt, unlike a poorly fitting faja. But since the faja is so popular, there must be some evidence of its effectiveness over a binder. Can a doctor please confirm if this is true?
Answer: Is a faja better for BBL results over a tummy compression binder for the typical BBL patient? The PS you have selected to perform your BBL, and lipo should provide you with post operative instructions, one of which will be the type of compression garment and length of wear. Based upon his/her experience not all PSs recommend a compression garment as each patient is unique. Our office provides our BBL patients with an adjustable compression garment manufactured by Clear Point. The patients like the support it provides to the back and to the abdomen. The only complaint I have heard is related to the "itchiness" of the fabric which can be remedied by wearing a soft t-shirt under the garment. The patients who tend to have healing issues with larger volume liposuction procedures tend to be the ones who do not wear the compression garments at all, wear them very inconsistently, or do not wear them snugly covering all areas of liposuction. I prefer adjustable garments with multiple bands so that tension can be adjusted. The key here is the size and the ability to tighten the garment, not the brand or make.

Answer: Compression after BBL There is zero scientific evidence that using compression garments has any impact on Liposuction or fat transfer results. In my opinion they had nothing to the results and I’m not all that important at all.
