It's been 3 months since my tummy tuck and liposuction. I still wear my faja day and night because I don't feel comfortable without it yet. However, while sleeping on my back at night, I experience a hot and burning sensation in my lower back. I have to loosen my faja, remove the blankets, and sleep on my side to alleviate the pain. This sensation is minimal during the day when I'm standing, sitting, or walking.
Typically, it takes about 6-8 months for swelling, sensation issues, and skin retraction to fully resolve. Gentle massage and gradually reducing compression can help in the healing process. If you have concerns, it is recommended to follow up with your surgeon for further evaluation and to address any specific concerns you may have. Best of luck to you.
Hello dear! Thank you for the question and providing information. It seems that you may be wearing your faja too tightly at night. I recommend loosening it a bit. If the sensation persists, please closely follow up with your plastic surgeon. Good luck!
After liposuction, it is normal to experience a burning sensation and some swelling for several months. Consult with your plastic surgeon about post-operative gels or creams that can aid in healing and alleviate the burning sensation. - [Doctor's Name]
Wearing a faja (compression garment) as loose as possible at night is recommended to avoid overheating the skin. Wearing it at this stage is primarily for comfort and won't impact the final result. If concerns persist, it is advisable to consult with the plastic surgeon.
