Lumps under skin after BBL. Should I have the areas massaged?

May 16, 2018
Asked By:slimgoody1979 in Charlotte, NC

Hi I am 2 weeks post op bbl. When I rub my hands over the lower part of my behind and hips I can feel lumps. Like maybe it’s the actual fat that was injected? It’s not warm or painful. Should I have the areas massaged? Give it some time because it’s too soon, or reach out to my surgeon? I’m freaking out!! Please Help!
