Recovery from the BBL

The results of the BBL are immediate and you will look good in clothes. Over 6 months the buttocks will soften and lose some volume that is associated with swelling and possibly some graft loss. The problem with having the procedure in May and trying to look for that summer (I'm assuming 2 piece bathing suit) has more to do with the bruising caused by the procedure, not only in the buttocks, but also in the area from which the fat is removed... more

While recovery from a Brazilian Butt Lift does NOT take months complete re-acquiring of the softness and bounce of the buttocks may take several months in some. If showing your BBL is on the absolute top of your must list, I would have the BBL as early as February.
