Square appearance 3 days post op BBL. It’s like a big hump and indent. (Photos)

Question

I got a bbl 3 days ago and it looks like all the doctor did was inject the fat into the upper part of my bottom and it’s like a big hump and indent. 1 day post op my doctor said it’s just swelling and it will go down but shouldn’t I beable to see somewhat of the shape I’ll have ? I feel like he just brushed my concern off because he knows it looks bad . Will the square shape and indent fill out when the swelling goes down or did the doc just mess me up ?

Hello. Swelling is normal, especially if you are only 3 days post op. Early post op is when most of the swelling happens. It will get better with time. A better fitting post op garment will also help with the swelling. Please be patient. It does look like it is a little bit square on top but it is too early to see how the end result will be.
Best of luck on your recovery,
Dr. Miguel Mota

Hello,
3 days out is too early to tell what your result will be. There is always swelling at this point. Be patient and give it time. 
All the best in your recovery,

It is too soon to determine if the final results of your surgery and if they achieved the look you desired. If you have concerns regarding any unusual swelling, pain or redness, contact your surgeon to discuss. Good luck!

Hello
The recovery after a BBL  could vary depending in the case and the patient. You are early in the healing process, what you are describing is normal I recommend to follow the instructions given by your surgeon and if you still have doubts talk to your doctor for a consult.
