Hot tub use after fat transfer to upper arms?

I recommend following up with your Doctor about their recommendations for using a hot tub after fat grafting. I make my patient wait 4 weeks after a fat grafting treatment to go in a pool or hot tub. I also recommend prp and sculptra after fat transfer to improve final results. Best, Dr. Emer.

This is a great question!  As your fat cells are healing and adjusting to their normal environment, it is wise to not introduce changes in the environment which can be stressful.  Thus, you've already waited 17 days and I would wait another 2 weeks before getting in a hot tub.  Best of luck!

Thank you for asking your question. Every physician has his/her own specific instructions for any given procedure. After the fat transfer, your body needs time to heal and adjust into its new shape. Please follow up with your physician to find out what he/she recommends. Best of luck.
