Could Having Sex Effect the Results of Your BBL?

Although there are no studies comparing if the outcome for a Brazilian butt lift  is affected by sex it is intuitive to assume that sex can negatively affect the Brazilian butt lift results but it only depends on the position and the amount of pressure. These are my recommendations about having sex after this procedure:


1. No sex for about 10 days


2. Gentle sex, no spanking for 14 days


3. Since you cannot  lie on your back or buttocks  for 14 – 21 days, use the doggie style at the edge of the bed


4. No pressure on your buttock by your partner


5. No forceful grabbing

 

Brazilian Butt Lift recovery time is dependent on how the patient’s body reacts to the procedure. Patients usually return to work after a week but you should not sit without the use of cushions for at least two weeks and you must wear a compression garment for several weeks after the procedure. You should wait until at least 2 weeks after the procedure to engage in sexual activity. Swelling and discomfort normally fades at six weeks. After about a month you will be mostly healed and you can get a nice idea of the results after around six months.

Every surgeon has their own recovery protocol, so I would consult with your plastic surgeon, but I personally advise my patients to wait 4-6 weeks before engaging in sexual activity. You want to not put any pressure on your buttocks to maximize your results.Kamran Azad MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Thank you for your question. Usually, It is about 6 weeks that patients will start to exercise. I would agree waiting 3-4 weeks for any sexual intercourse. It is better to wait in case of any injury or potential problems. Double check with your plastic surgeon to get a second opinion. Best of luck!Dhaval M.

Fat transfered during BBL has to be given a chance to survive.  Any undue pressure to  the grafted area may lessen the chance of survival and ultimately change the desired outcome.  You and your partner will need to change some things about your intimate times that will not jepordize your outcoome.
