Bruised Red Golf Size Ball After Bbl Very Painful? (photo)

Ellen2134May 30, 2013
I had a bbl 2 and a half months ago this is my 2nd bbl. about a month ago I got a pimple looking like next to my incision in between the butt cheeks. It popped and I've been draining for almost 4 weeks now at the beginning I was draining a lot!!!! My jeans were always wet. Now I still drain but not as much. My right cheek has been real hard and now it looks like a golf ball in my butt. It hurts very very much!! What can I do or what will happen? Should I just go along with it even if it hurts?

Thank you for your question. Congratulations on having BBL surgery. I advise my patients to use the garment 23 hrs a day for two weeks then switch to a contour garment. Make sure you follow your surgeons recommendations. Best Wishes

If you choose to separate the procedures, I would recommend doing the BBL first followed by a TT several months...
