If you just had liposuction, a BBL,mommy makeover, or a tummy tuck and any plastic surgery, you’ve probably heard your surgeon mention “Stage 1,” “Stage 2,” or “Stage 3” compression fajas, and you might be wondering…
What’s the actual difference? And when do I switch?
Don’t worry, we’re breaking it down in a simple, real-life way so you feel confident choosing the right post-surgery faja for your recovery.
Because wearing the correct stage at the correct time can truly impact your healing and final results.
This is the faja you wear immediately after surgery.
Your body is swollen. Tender. Sensitive. Healing.
Stage 1 is made with super soft fabric and medium compression so you get support without overwhelming fresh incisions.
Why it’s perfect for early recovery:
Light, tailored compression to reduce swelling
Four-way stretch fabric that adapts to your body
No bra attached (great for post-op or postpartum use)
Closed straps for comfort
Includes foams for a smoother, softer fit
Space for ab boards and recovery aids
Hourglass sizing (hips slightly larger than waist)
This stage isn’t about aggressive sculpting. It’s about protecting your results while your body begins to heal.
Pro tip: Order it at least 10 days before surgery so it’s ready for you when you come home.
Stage 2: Where the Sculpting Begins (Around Weeks 2–3)
Once your incisions are fully healed and your surgeon gives you the green light, it’s time to move into Stage 2.
Stage 2 offers higher compression designed to mold, define, and refine your new shape after liposuction, tummy tuck, or BBL.
At this stage, you have two options depending on the level of structure and compression you’re ready for:
Serena vs Powernet
Designed for the early months post-op and for sensitive skin, Serena offers firm but gentle compression without rods. It’s ideal if you’re not ready for structured corset compression yet.
This is where you start refining your shape, with comfort.

Focused support on abdomen and fupa

So… When Should You Switch?
Here’s the simple version:
Just had surgery → Stage 1
Incisions closed (2–3 weeks) → Stage 2
2+ months post-op & used to compression → Stage 3
Always follow your surgeon’s instructions first, but now you understand what each stage is actually doing for your body.
