Answer: Are compression garments necessary following the BBL?
We always apply a compression garment following the BBL. The purpose is to try to minimize psotoperative swelling. It also provides a level of comfort. We generally recommend wearing the garment for 10-14 days following which we start a couse of massage and ultrasound sessions to the fat donor sites.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Normal To Wear Compression Garments After Fat Transfer to Butt? Hello dear!! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. Each doctor has their own protocol. It is very important that you talk to him and follow his instructions. I suggest my patients to use a full body compression garment, 24/7 for the first 3 months, and after that, for 12 hours a day for 3 more months, to get the best results. It is important for the compression garment to be very tight, for it to help with the swelling, after surgery. I ask my patients to change to a smaller garment as soon as the first starts feeling loose. If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon. Good luck :)

Answer: Do I Need a Compression Garment after my Brazilian Butt Lift? The compression garment is an important part of your Brazilian Butt Lift as the full benefit of the procedure is not only from the fat transfer but also the liposculpting. I do think it is important that you have a specialized garment after your procedure. I have tried various garments, with and without material over the buttock area. From a patient comfort standpoint I have found that the garments with a very soft mesh over the buttock has been best. However this is personal decision between you and your surgeon. I hope this helps, be sure to discuss this with your board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Compression is key, discuss this with your surgeon... Post-operative garments for compression are frequently utilized following cosmetic surgery. These devices minimize swelling, decrease pain, decrease discomfort and help remodel tissue.In Brazilian butt lift patients, extreme pressure can result in fat cell death. For this reason some surgeons have utilized “butt out” compression garments. This hopefully avoids pressure in areas that have undergone fat grafting, while simultaneously compressing donor sites that have undergone liposuction.The vast majority of plastic surgeons utilize “butt in” compression garments. In this situation, the goal is to remodel the tissue, not compress and remove swelling. When these devices are used, they should fit snuggly, but not tightly because this could result in damage to the grafted fat cells.It’s important to realize that no two patients are ever exactly the same. For this reason, it’s important that treatment be individualized. If you have questions regarding this topic, a discussion with your surgeon is appropriate.
