Thank you for your question. I tell my patients to not sit on their buttocks for two weeks after their BBL. Please speak directly with your plastic surgeon.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL
Sitting on your butt after a BBL will injure the fat and decrease fat survival. You should speak to your surgeon about how long you need to stay after surgery without flying. Also, you need to be prepared to fly back to your surgeon if there are any issues during recovery since you will probably not find a surgeon in New York who will be willing to take care of you in the rare event of a complication.
Hello dear!!Thanks for the question and provided information as well.I recommend my patients to wait at least 10 days before flying back to home, and you should not sit for more than 30 mins. every two hours, for the first 2 weeks, and always with the help of a boppy pillow. If you have any concerns, I suggest you follow up close with your plastic surgeon.Hope this is helpful. Good luck :)
I do not routinely allow my patients to sit on the buttocks during the initial few weeks after surgery, because it may impact survival of the fat.
Dear Sasha,I restrict my patients from sitting on their buttocks for 2 full weeks after a BBL. So, if you were my patient, I'd say you can't fly without possibly ruining your results. Good luck!
