How Much Does Ksl Hair Transplant Cost In Edinburgh

I have a six-week break before starting a new job that requires me to sit for most of the day. Would I still need a BBL pillow during this period?

I recommend my BBL patients to refrain from sitting completely for the first 10 days following surgery. After that, they can start using a BBL pillow for the next 3 weeks. At 6 weeks post-op, there are no sitting restrictions. It's important to discuss specific post-operative instructions with your plastic surgeon for personalized guidance. Best of luck!

The most accurate answer regarding sitting after a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) will come from your plastic surgeon, who performed the procedure. In my practice, I advise patients to minimize sitting, even with a pillow, during the first two weeks. If sitting is necessary, I recommend getting up and standing every 30 minutes to an hour for a few seconds to relieve pressure and reduce the chance of fat necrosis. I typically recommend waiting about 6 weeks before sitting without a pillow, as by that time, the fat has revascularized and patients can better assess their final results.

The recommended duration for using a bobby pillow after surgery varies, and it is best to consult with your plastic surgeon for guidance specific to your case.

Post-operative instructions after a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) can vary among plastic surgeons. Consult your plastic surgeon for their specific recommendations. Some surgeons may advise avoiding sitting or laying on your butt or hips for 10 days.
