I plan on doing my BBL December 7th in Miami and i'll stay there till the 13th before i go back home to Chicago. I also have a long distance flight from Chicago to london (7 hours) and from london to Ghana (7 hours) so that's a total of 13 hours. Is it advisable to still do the BBL in December or should I wait?

Answer: #RealselfQ: How many days after BBL/lipo can I travel on 14 hours' distance flight? After a BBL and Liposuction, I recommend waiting at least six weeks before flying or travelling long distances.

Answer: How many days after BBL/lipo can I Every surgeon will have a different recommendation for the number of days depending upon your individual risk factors and the amount of surgery performed. Recommend that you ask for your surgeon's opinion regarding boarding a 13-hour flight following BBL/lipo surgery. There are no hard and fast rules on when to fly after this procedure. Most would recommend a week or two before flying. The main risk is related to development of a blood clot in the legs that can then migrate to the lungs. Sitting for long periods of time puts you at higher risk due to being stationary. Pressure on the fat, etc. are also possibilities.I recommend that my patients minimize sitting, even with a pillow, for the first two weeks. If they must sit, every 30 minutes or an hour, they should get up and stand for a few seconds to take the pressure off. This reduces the chance for fat necrosis. I usually recommend about 6 weeks before sitting without a pillow. After 6 weeks the fat has revascularized, and they will have a very good idea of their final results.
