Will this effect my outcome off a bbl? If I am getting a tt at the same time?
Answer: It's possible... I do perform tummy tuck and Brazilian butt lift at the same setting, but not with the same frequency which I once did. Recovery is difficult and, as many of my patients are getting simultaneous fat grafts into the outer thighs, it's not possible for them to lay on their sides.One of the products you may want to investigate is the CurveCure mattress. It's an inflatable mattress with a strategically cut out hole for BBL patients. I'll use it commonly in my practice for patients having combined procedures. I actually recently wrote a blog about this, which is the web reference below.Hope this helps - Sam Jejurikar, MD

Answer: Combined BBL and tummy tuck You can have a combined tummy tuck and BBL which will leave you sleeping and lying primarily on your sides. Discuss this with your plastic surgeon in advance of your procedure. If your surgeon is planning to inject your hips, that fat may be compromised by the increased pressure on your hips.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Answer: Sitting after BBL and Tummy Tuck Thanks for your question.It is difficult when you have Brazilian Butt Lift and a tummy tuck at the same time.Your best option is to sleep or rest on your side in the initial postoperative period.Just be sure there is no long-term sleeping on one particular side (you want to switch positions).I hope this helps.

Answer: Having a BBL and Tummy Tuck at the same time Hello, and thank you for your question.It is very possible to have both procedures done at the same time.Many patients will rest, sleep, and relax on their side. This is to avoid resting on the incision from the tummy tuck, and to avoid undo pressure to the buttocks. Please choose a board certified plastic surgeon with years of experience performing multiplie procedures at once. Also, follow all post operative instructions to ensure the best results.All the best,Dr. ObengBeverly Hills, CA
