Like in any cosmetic surgery, it is very important to take special care and follow all the instructions given by the surgeon for the healing process (post-operative bandage, incision care, drain medication use, etc.). The hospital stay (overnight) is one day unless there is another medical necessity.
After discharge, there will be post-operative visits on the days to be determined by the surgeon. Drains are removed after the control of the surgeon or if necessary, they are left for the next control.
During this period, it's normal to have a feeling of pain, tension, some bruises, and edema in the operation areas. “Is The Brazilian Butt Lift operation dangerous?” or “Can my body reject a BBL?” are among the most asked questions. It's not a dangerous surgery because of the fat being ejected and injected. It's performed with the own fat of every patient.
The patient should not sit on the buttock for two weeks after the surgery and should lie on the side or face until the area heals completely. It may take an average of a week to return to the daily routine.
It is recommended a little bit amount walking right after the surgery. After a few days, walking and other movements can be done more easily.
