Working a desk job and having a bbl. Will it damage the results?

I have developed numerous modalities to help with these postoperative management concerns.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
I recommend my patients to allow 2-4 weeks for recovery, and to wait at least 7-10 days before going back to work, but each doctor has their own protocol.
I also recommend not to sit for more than 30 mins. every two hours, for the first 2 weeks, and always with the help of a boppy pillow. It is very important that you talk to him and follow his instructions.
Hope this is helpful. Good luck :)

I perform a lot of Brazilian Butt Lifts each week in my Atlanta area surgery center.  Many of my patients need to get back to their desk jobs a few weeks after surgery. I recommend they sit on a nursing pillow when they return to work.  This allows them to sit comfortably at their desks while avoiding putting pressure on their new backsides!

i ask my patient s to stay off the buttock for around three weeks or longer. The less you sit the better your results will be

I prefer that patients do not sit on their buttocks directly for about 2 weeks. After that, I prefer that they change positions frequently to avoid undo pressure continuously on one area. Always best to ask your surgeon.

You may need to adapt you desk to a standing desk, which I have seen work very well. However check with your operating plastic surgeon and follow his / her recommendations carefully and completely.Good LuckStephen M. Davis, MD, FACSGreen Hills Plastic Surgery

Each plastic surgeon has his/her own protocol for recommendations after bbl. Sitting for the most part should be fine since applies pressure to the lower buttocks (not where the fat is injected). Again check with your plastic surgeon for the best advice for you. Good luck!
