Brazilian Butt Lift

These are post operative instructions you should have received from your surgeon. I usually tell my patients to buy a pillow donut or two and sit on the donut so that the bulk of the fat transfrred is in the hole of th donut and pressure is applied on the transfres fat. As to your case and how much damage, you will know when you see the final results in 12 weeks The success of any surgery depend on the execution of the surgery and FOLLOW THE PREOPERATIVE AND POST OPERATIVE... more
