You should wait at least 2 weeks before sitting without a support cushion and sleeping on your back. Sitting with no support too soon can harm the newly moved fat cells.

I just operated on a woman who loved to ride her motorcycle.  I would not recommend anything like this for at least 6 weeks.  However, your plastic surgeon should make this decision.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Thank you for your question.  Every doctor has their own postoperative protocols and restrictions.  It's probably best if you ask your surgeon what they would prefer.  Best of luck!-Dr. Dan KrochmalMAE Plastic SurgeryNorthbrook, IL
