Answer: Flying after a BBL Your surgeon is the best person to give you this recommendation. I would encourage you to contact their office. Personally, my patients have to stay in town between 7-10 days after their BBL. The longer they stay, the better. You want to make sure your body is healing, and that any post-op care needed is done correctly. Your body is healing from surgery, and flying that early could potentially delay the healing process.

Answer: Be careful! Hi! Each surgeon has their own post-op instructions and you should follow your surgeons recommendations. But in my experience, it is not safe to travel back home so soon after this procedure. I ask my patients to stay in town for at least 5 days post-op. That way I can examine your skin, healing, you're more recovered for the flight back home and the risk of developing blood clots (deep vein thrombosis/pulmonary embolism) is lower. Hope this helps!
