I went to the DR to have tummy tuck and bbl. To drain fluids theyd put a needle in one of my back insions and drain my fluid like that. Ever since those massages Ive been in some crazy pain! Especially when I take my faja off I feel like my back is breaking and my belly is ripping!!!
Im 2 months post op of a tummy tuck with lipo. I stopped wearing my faja at about 6 weeks because Id just had enough of it and I feel comfy without it now. Is this going to effect my overall result or are they purely just to reduce swelling? Thanks.
I will be one year post op on May 6, 2022- I am still experiencing extreme tightness in my abdomen when I take off my faja- I am literally stuck in my faja 24 hours a day (its either that or endure pain all day and night) and I don't know what to do about it- when i put the faja on its instant relief and i can move around normally.
I have been following several women post op tummy tuck and lipo360 on social media to get a feel for recovery. Some women say that their doctors forbade them from wearing faja past week 6 so that the body could repair its own lymphatic channels and learn to drain itself. Others wear their compression garnments 2 weeks and some longer than 12 weeks. Im curious on the general consensus- is it true that you shook f stop wearing faja at 6 weeks???
Next week I am having an extended Tummy tuck with Lipo 360 and Body Tite, lipo and body tite in my arms and inner thighs, as well as a breast lift, and BBL. I do not feel like I was well educated on my post-op care, so I will ask here. 1. Do I need to wear compression socks? If so, shall they come below the knee, or up to the thigh (considering I'll be having lipo in my inner thighs.) 2. Do I need to wear an ab board and lipo foam under my faja? Thank you for your answers!
Hello I had a Tummy tuck, my swelling goes up and down I love my results but does it look like I need more lipo or Should I just continue to using faja & boards to compress? Im exactly 6 months post Op extended tummy tuck with lipo to flanks
I had lipo 360, arm lipo and a bbl in November 2020. Despite post-op lymphatic draining massages and wearing my faja and boards, I still have quite a bit of fibrosis. I recently went back to my surgeon and he suggested a tummy tuck to help with my elasticity. Id like to have a more snatched waist and breast augmentation but want to make sure that Im getting the right procedure(s) based on my fibrosis and with another surgeon. Thank you in advance and looking forward to your expert opinion
Hello I have a question I'm soon getting done a tummy tuck and bbl. What's the aftercare like I know for a tummy tuck I need a binder and for a bbl a faja stage 1 . so if I'm getting both done which one do I choose to wear? Also would I need to get lymphatic massages after my procedure but wouldn't that be dangerous to my tummy tuck incision?
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?
I am in the Dominican Republic getting a tummy tuck and lipo from the States. Here, they use a faja for compression after sx. My concern is they claim the faja is what gives you your permanent shape. They insist that I wear a 2 stage faja that is so tight, it indents my skin, and makes it so I cant breath. I refused. I will wear my 1 stage garment that is still tight, but not to the point of feeling faint. I have read NO WHERE that supports tight faja's being beneficial, in any way.
