Stage 2 Faja with Bra for Women - Colombian Post-Op Shapewear

In this review of the Stage 2 Faja with Bra, the bottom line is simple: this is a high-compression Colombian body shaper that delivers a true hourglass silhouette, making it a strong pick for women recovering from surgery or anyone wanting firm everyday shaping. The reviewer found the garment's construction and Powernet compression to be the single biggest reason to buy, since it combines a built-in bra, adjustable straps and a bathroom zipper into a garment trusted by surgeons for stage 2 post-op support.

Key Features

• High-compression Powernet: Provides firm, consistent compression that helps mold curves and support recovery after lipo or tummy tuck.
• Built-in bra with adjustable straps: The non-padded bra and adjustable straps create a customizable upper fit without adding bulk under clothing.
• Three hook levels: Multiple hook rows let you fine-tune the cinch at the waist for a more personalized hourglass shape.
• Bathroom zipper: A practical zipper makes restroom access easier without removing the entire garment, preserving compression and convenience.
• Seamless finish and no back darts: Smooth construction reduces visible lines under clothing and aims for durability and comfort.
• Made in Colombia: Traditional Colombian faja design that lifts the glute and emphasizes shaping.

Who It's For

The Stage 2 Faja with Bra is best for women around 6 weeks post-op from procedures such as liposuction, tummy tuck, lipo 360, or BBL who need reliable compression and mid-level recovery support. It also suits everyday wearers who want a strong shaping garment that creates a noticeable hourglass silhouette under dresses and fitted outfits.

Women who consistently need more relaxed or lightly compressive garments, or those who find firm crotch or shoulder pressure uncomfortable, may prefer a gentler shapewear option. Be prepared to check sizing carefully, since customers report mixed fit in the crotch and shoulder fit can feel tight for some.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Trusted construction and high compression that effectively molds the waist and lifts the glute.
• Thoughtful practical details like a bathroom zipper and three hook levels for adjustability.
• Seamless under clothing with durable Powernet that aims to last longer than lower-quality pieces.

Cons

• Fit can be inconsistent; some customers report tightness in the crotch area and shoulder strap discomfort.
• The non-padded built-in bra may not suit those seeking extra bust shaping or padding.
