After cosmetic surgery ( like Lipo , BBL or Tummy tuck ), your body needs support to heal properly — and that’s where the right post-op girdle makes all the difference. 💖
🔍 Why is it essential?
Helps control swelling
Reduces the risk of seromas and fibrosis
Aids in fluid re absorption
Supports healing tissues
Helps shape and define your curves.
🔄 Not all girdles are created equal
Here’s the difference between a post-op girdle and a regular shaping girdle(Faja) :
Type | Purpose | Material | Compression |
🩹 Post-op girdle | Healing & drainage | Softer, breathable | High (stage 1 or 2) |
🔥 Shaping faja | Cosmetic shaping | Firmer, tighter | High (stage 3) |
💥 Compression stages:
Stage 1: Soft compression with front hooks. Ideal for first days post-surgery. Helps drain fluids without over-pressure.
Stage 2: Medium compression for gentle shaping and continued healing.
Stage 3: High compression to sculpt and maintain results.
✨ Remember: a good faja not only sculpts, it protects your recovery!
