I had my BBL 16 days ago! And I loved it the first 3days now it’s starting to take a different boxy shape and do not like it? Will it change shape again or is this the shape?
Answer: BBL 16 days ago. Will it change shape? Thank you for your question and photos. I assume that none of these photos are preop. Looking at the two photos on the left, I agree that you have a boxy shape, your buttocks look long and no definition between upper buttocks and waist/hips/mid lower back. Residual fat is left over and outside of the pelvic bones. Yes, I agree with the other posts that you are swollen and will take 6-9 months to get back to normal, but I'm afraid that your boxy shape will stay. I know this, because I correct more of these than I want. Stay close to your surgeon, express your concerns and see if he/she can "see" what you see. Good luck with your healing.

Answer: BBL 16 days ago. Will it change shape? Hello, thanks for your question, I have to say that it is too soon to determine final results. Wait at least 6 to 8 months, and then you can see it's final shape.

Answer: BBL 16 days ago. Will it change shape? Thank you for your pictures and questions. It will take at least 6 months for the swelling to subside and the non-surviving graft to resorb. Try to be patient and follow closely with your surgeon. Discuss your concerns with him or her as time passes.Good luck!

Answer: BBL shape Hi helena2486,Thank you for your questions and attached photos. You will not see your final shape for 6-9 months. The areas of fat grafting and liposuction are very swollen and can change the shape. It is important to communicate with your plastic surgeon, who can make sure the swelling and shape is one they would expect.Hope that helps.Best,Dr. B
