Butt out garment after BBL? (Photo)

Question

So I jut got a BBL 4 days ago and when I woke I was in a butt out garment. My Nurses said this was the type I use but t my consultation months ago I was told I would have a Butt in faja and I would go to a butt out about 6 months later. I need a second opinion. Am I in the right garment?

Hello, This is a pretty standard garment for right after surgery. Typically after a BBL you want to have compression on the lipo spots and no compression on the buttock region so this seems appropriate. All the best!Dr. BlaggAustin, TX

Follow up with your PS to resolve the confusion regarding which type compression garment is to be used initially and later on in your recovery.  Based on our experience in using various compression garments with our patients, different PSs prefer a variety of compression garments.  Only your PS can recommend the one best for you as he/she performed your surgery and is aware of how you are healing.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Dear tmuneca,every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Thanks for your question.  Every plastic surgeon has different products that he or she prefers.  Please consult with your plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns and what is best for you.  Best wishes!

I prefer an open garment but have used both. Best to ask your surgeon what he prefers. Good luck....
