Why Post-Op Massage and the Right Faja Are the Ultimate Recovery Duo

Why Post-Op Massage and the Right Faja Are the Ultimate Recovery Duo

If you've recently undergone a body contouring procedure, the quality of your final results depends heavily on your post-operative care. At My Faja in Minneapolis, Minnesota, we specialize in the two most critical components of that care: medical-grade compression garments and post-op lymphatic drainage massage.

The Role of Post-Op Lymphatic Massage

Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) is a specialized massage technique that manually stimulates your lymphatic system, helping your body flush out waste and reduce massive swelling. It accelerates healing, prevents fibrosis (hard lumps), and reduces pain.

Why Your Faja is the Missing Link

Massage therapy moves the fluid out, but your faja stops it from coming back. Immediately after a massage, you put your faja back on. The high compression acts as a physical barrier, holding the tissues tightly together so the fluid cannot rush back into the empty spaces.

Because massage reduces swelling rapidly, you need an adjustable faja. Our signature Stage Two Faja allows you to tighten the garment immediately after a session, locking in your massage results.
