What should I purchase for postop care after a BBL?

Surgeons have different potop regimens regarding the postop care following a BBL. In my office we recommend wearing a surgical garment for the first 2- 3 weeks. We recommend applying an antibiotic ointment for 1 week to the incisions after the steri-strip tape comes off after the first week. week. You should follow your plastic surgeon's recommendation and not listen to what other people may be saying.

Hey- I did a BBL 27 days ago.... What you need really depends on your surgeon; but the basics are: Anti Bacterial Soap Female Unrinal- unless you have really good aim and balancing techniques Baby wipes- scented and anti bacterial ones Peroxide Q-tips Cotton Wool A lot of Gatorade/Water/Pineapple Juice Your favourite fruits and healthy snacks Laptop or Ipad Magazines Gauze Medical Tape Polysporin cream - for when you take off your steri stripes Sanitary Towels/Tampons Big pair is panties if you decide to se sanitary towels; but wouldn't recommend it at all! Use tampons. Laxcitive- you will more than likely be constipated even if taking stool softeners. They give you pretty strong pain killers Dressing gown or two Baggy sweat pants T shirt Soft bra Maxi dresses Bedroom slippers Comfy slip ons... Don't take any expensive things. Travel light- you will spend most of your time in your room; you will not be going out other than for massages or to see your surgeon. Take things that you know will amuse you and make the time go by faster. 10-11 days holed up in a room is no joke.... http://www.realself.com/review/suwanee-ga-brazilian-butt-lift-team-jimerson-dr-andrew-jimerson That's my experience! Good luck with everything.
