Is it recommended to exercise before BBL?

NiaCMay 1, 2013
Hello. I plan to get the BBL in March 2014. In preparation of the procedure what exercises would you recommend? I have started to focus solely on areas that will not be effected by the procedure. Like my arms, back, chest, and calves. Please keep in mind I also have to gain 10 to 15 pounds before the procedure. Thank you in advance for your advice.

The triangle area is area above your buttock crease that requires liposuction for the BBL procedure. Usually after bbl surgery a triagulr foam compression is placed in this area.

    Dimples may be the result of lumpy fat deposits, swelling, or fat necrosis.  This will probably improve with healing.  However, the size of the buttock tends to decrease over the first 6 weeks to 3 months.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
