8 days post op BBL. 20yo, 150lbs, 5'7 feeling throbbing or heartbeats in my butt

Question

Ok sounds silly lol but im wondering if this is a good sign. Im post op 8 days from my bbl with 950cc per cheek/hip, fat was injectioned in my butt and hips. But today ive been noticing throbbing almost like heartbeats here n there around my butt area. Is this a sign of healing ?

Hi and thanks for the question. No this is not a silly question at all and what you are experiencing is very common. You are likely just experiencing a throbbing sensation from swelling. Your body is sending blood to this area to heal so this is a good sign. Best of Luck - Dr. Hardy...

You need to see your operate surgeon ASAP. Sounds like minor postop issues BUT only in person follow up visits can determine if there are any issues.
