Why is it that some doctors use a faja and some don't?

Hello dear!!Thanks for the question. But, like everything in life there's always two sides. Most of plastic surgeons use faja because it helps the body shape, the swollen, stick the skin back again, avoid the fluids from building up, and other aspects. And, in the other hand, there are some plastic surgeons that says the faja will flat your buttocks, they can burn the skin or even cause some minor traumas.All depend on the results each doctor has seen in their work experience.Hope this could help and good luck :)

Hello and thank you for your excellent question. We do not use a Faja, per se, but rather a garment that is specifically used for BBL patients. Of course, you will need an in-person consultation to evaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. Any treatment plan should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon.    Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation in person with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
