I am 2 months 4 days post op bbl last night I decided to sleep without any kind of compression garment.W/every turn and move I felt like my skin was being ripped apart& I was being cut open! I feel like my recovery at this point is fine minus the slight swelling when I typically dont wear compression for2hrs while at the gym but last night was horrible ! Is this a normal feeling when not wearing a garment at this stage?When can i expect it to go away?Can I make it more comfortable sooner?Thanks

One will need to determine with you Wether you would prefer a transfer to even the dent or lipo to smoothen it out. Irregularitie after major lipo occurs and can easily be corrected.
I find that the pain is mainly from the areas of liposuction and not fat transfer. Liposuction can have ongoing pain for weeks, so this is completely normal. Most of my patients say that the pain in their lower back region hurts the longest.
Fluid and swelling in the lower abdomen is not at all uncommon, however, you should visit with your plastic surgeon to get examined to rule out a fluid collection which needs to be tapped.Best of luck!
