So my doctor said to wear foams PLUS ab & back board under my faja for 6-8 weeks but idk why that just seems unreasonable. I feel like i see most women transition to fajas only after about 3-4 weeks

Answer: Postoperative protocol Dear hdaanouni,every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients.

Answer: Faja for 6-8 weeks if your surgeon has a significant experience in this procedure he may be saying that because he wants to avoid loose skin afterwards and does not see much contraction in your skin. If that is the case massages can also help as well. I would recommend you stay in close contact with your surgeon and address these concerns. If you don't feel your questions are being answered then I would get a second opinion by a board-certified plastic surgeon by the American Board of plastic surgery who has significant experience in this procedure.Best of luckDr. Michael Gartner
