I would like to know about fajas worn for BBL, tummy tuck and lipo to the back and flanks. Shouldn't you wear nothing but something to support your stomach and wait for 4 to 6 weeks to then wear shapewear?
Answer: Why are fajas recommended post-op when the can squeeze the butt even if it's loose around the bottom? This is a very contentious question and ultimately each surgeon will do what works best in their hands. I personally agree with you and only have my patient wear waist binders so there is no pressure on the butt and hips. I find that even the garments with completely open areas still cause lines and ridges along the edges.

Answer: Why are fajas recommended post-op when the can squeeze the butt even if it's loose around the bottom? Hi and thank you very much for your question. In my practice, my patients wear fajas immediately after surgery for 4-8 weeks depending on the procedure. Every surgeon is different in regard to their preferences so I recommend you meet with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to to discuss you concerns further and decide the best treatment for you. I hope this helped. Best wishes! Dr. Aydin

Answer: Why are fajas recommended post-op when the can squeeze the butt even if it's loose around the bottom? Hello and thank you for the question. Compression garment is typically placed immediately after the surgery. I have my patients wear compression garment for 3-4 weeks postoperatively, but other surgeons may have other preferences. There are special compression garments for BBL that many plastic surgeons use, that are contoured around the buttocks for a more customized compression. Please discuss your concerns with your surgeon. Best,

Answer: Compression Compression garments and type used will vary by surgeon. They are intended to help support tissues and control swelling during healing. It is best to speak with your surgeon on what is recommended for you and the rationale behind it.

Answer: Post op garments I usually suggest wearing a compression garment that does not compress any area that has had fat grafting for at least 6 weeks. After this there may not be a need to compress the area but this is on a case by case basis. I do suggest wearing a compression garment for the areas where the fat is taken from however as this will help with swelling and final shape.

Answer: Why are fajas recommended post-op when the can squeeze the butt even if it's loose around the bottom? More about Tummy Tuck The PS you have selected to perform your TT, 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.
