3 months postpartum - should I consider lipo360 BBL to remove excess fat and fill my hips? (photos)

Question

I’m 27 just had my first baby 3 months ago and wanting the stomach weight to come off and I see a little difference but noticed it’s a little saggy when i look from a side angle so was wondering if I should look into a cosmetic procedure such as BBl to remove the excess fat and fill in my hips etc

Zoran Potparic, MD · Answer

You should give yourself more time to recover from recent birth and enjoy the baby. A risks for thromboembolism (blood cloths) is still high for ann  elective procedure, in particular BBL. When selecting a board certified plastic surgeon to do your surgery be aware that low price and number of surgeries performed may be deceiving  in particular in the area where you live; choose wisely. Good luck.

As long as you're healthy, I recommend waiting at least 3 months after delivering your baby as well as after you return to your pre-pregnancy weight.

At three months after the birth of your first child, I recommend you focus on recovering from your pregnancy and taking care of your child.Patients should generally stabilize their body after pregnancy before having cosmetic surgery.This may take a different amount of time for each person, but six months is often recommended.It’s important to recognize that pregnancy does not change fat distribution.Pregnancy related changes our skin laxity, and muscle separation. These are best treated with a full tummy tuck, which is only appropriate when women know they are done having children.When the time is right, I suggest having multiple in person consultations with plastic surgeons in your community.In the end, finding the right provider is the most important variable period.Personally I suggest slowing down the train a bit.Best,Mats Hagstrom MD
