My main insecurity is my hip dips and is the main reason I'm getting a BBL. I've now booked my surgery for early next year and during my video consultation my surgeon said it looks like I had tight skin. Meaning 1. The fat will be under pressure which makes vein production slower so less fat survives in this area. 2. If there's not a lot of space between my skin and muscle he won't be able to inject as much fat. Is hoping for rounder / filled in hip dips a realistic expectation to have?
Im 16 days post-op. Wore garment for 5 days post-of & it came off on day 6 due to circulation problems in stomach. On day 14 it was back on but i feel it's too tight around my butt & Im afraid it may negatively affect final results. I'd like 2 hear the opinion of other surgeons. Should I keep same garment? Change to another one that puts less pressure on buttock area? What is the "stage 1 and stayed 2"? My doc has not mentioned such thing.Please read caption of photos for addtnl info (didnt fit)
I am really keen to get a Brazilian Butt Lift, however a major concern of mine, is that the skin around my butt and hips is extremely tight. I have even sent over pictures to a surgeon in Istanbul and he suggested that my results would be considerably limited, as my butt would not hold that much fat. I am able to accept that in terms of projection, I may not see a huge difference, but is it worth undergoing this procedure in the hopes of seeing some what of an improvement?
About 4 years ago I had scoliosis surgery and got a DVT in my leg afterwards. The blood clot has been cleared but I still get tightness in it if I sit too long/do too much strenuous exercise. My left leg is slightly larger than my right leg, as well. I still want to get a BBL but I'm worried it might further exacerbate my symptoms. Would I still be a good candidate?
My biggest concern is fat survival in a BBL. my skin is pretty tight around my thighs and butt (photo of me pinching has been inserted) . Will I be turned away from surgery because of this ? I would really like to have rounder hips and fuller butt.
I had lipo with BBL on 10/19, so I am post -op day #11. I have had issues with seromas and inflammation, mostly to my suprapubic region and lower abdomen. I feel that the compression is not enough. I have bought a waist cincher, which the doctor's assistant suggested and it works, but I can not wear it for long periods of time because of the tightness/soreness. Do you recommend spanx with butt-lifter, waist cincher, or a tighter post-surgical compression garment with use of lipo foam and boards?
I'm planning on going back to work 10 days after my bbl. I don't want a drastic change to my bottom and I'm not telling anyone that I'm getting surgery. Will people know somethings up by the way i'm walking? Should I wait til I have more time off of work if I'm planning on keeping my ps a secret?
I had bbl with lipo and I'm 1 month post op. My skin on my stomach sides and back are very tight which is uncomfortable. I have hard knots/lumps on my sides and back and they are painful. I get sharp pains in the areas that were lipo'd .I've had a total of 17 lymathic drainge massage which were all painful by the way and I decided not to get anymore because I just couldn't handle that pain anymore. How long will it take my skin to soften up and how long before these knots and lumps go away?
