Soreness after 12weeks of bbl - Is it normal to feel soreness later on?

Thank you for your questions. Soreness is not uncommon after surgery. You should continue to follow your surgeon's post operative instructions closely and continue to give your body time to heal. Follow up regularly with your surgeon as well. Good Luck. 

It is possible to still have some soreness at 12 weeks post surgery.  Normally at around 3 months more of the sensory nerves have healed and you can tend to feel more soreness, tingling, etc. as this occurs.  This should improve.  However, I would suggest that your follow up with your surgeon or see a board certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation to assure all is healing as expected.  Good Luck!  

Your soreness is not uncommon in my experience. My patient have reported feeling similar soreness for 6 - 8 months after surgery. The good news is that you don’t have any lumps, areas of redness, fever or other symptoms. The soreness you’re experience should completely resolve. I don’t know where you had your surgery, but it is always a good idea to see your own plastic surgeon. Best of luck

would you describe is not normal but does happen from time to time. The last patient on real self were described a similar set of symptoms had three BBL's done as well as having implants put in and take it out. In her case I believe the discomfort was due to excessive grafting putting pressure on tissues that was not normal.  Usually long-term pain is highly unlikely. If the pain continues more than six months consider getting a radiologic work up such as a  CT scan or MRI. Continue follow up with your plastic surgeon.  Try using ibuprofen at the lowest effective dose. You could also ask your doctor for a prescription for gabapentin.  If you do take gabapentin especially in high doses it needs to be tapered gradually when you stop using it. Best, Mats Hagstrom M.D. 

At the three months out from surgery you should be feeling your sensory nerves growing back. this is the ache and tingling you are feeling. The best policy is to become more active. Exercise and messages will help desensitize these sensory nerves. Eventually these nerves will stop triggering.

It's not uncommon to feel discomfort  3 months after surgery. There is scar tissue that is forming and it  may take several months until this subsides  You should consult with your plastic surgeon. good luck!
