Hello I had a Bbl done in 2015, in the Dominican Republic. I have lost some volume in the centre of my buttocks over times. I’m now experiencing burning pain in my buttocks, bilaterally, usually at night but sometimes in the day time too. I shift position off my butt to my hips but still feel a burn. I also had fat transfer to hips but feel no burning. I have no other symptoms. Skin is cool to touch. Intact. No lumps or blisters. Can anyone please advise? Thanks
Answer: Burning buttocks 4 years after a procedure is a long time to have issues related to that procedure. I would send you for an mri to evaluate your buttocks though. AssuMing that comes back without abnormality a consultation with a neurologist would be helpful as well.Best

Answer: Follow up care Hello, Thank you for your question. It is unusual to have symptoms related to your surgery appear four years later. It may be related to irritated nerves but it is impossible to say or properly advise you without an assessment, history and physical exam. I recommend following up with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area for a follow up.

Answer: The importance of aftercare patients do not appreciate the importance of aftercare or the complications actually do happen from surgery. Generally we would encourage you to follow up with your provider and I suppose most of us still would. I suggest you talk to your primary care doctor and have him or her help you out. As was stated previously and I'm all right work up it's a good place to start. After that consider consulting either with the pain management doctor or a neurologist. Gluteal pain often comes from pathology to lower back. Without a thorough history it's hard to know if this is even related to your surgery. For example did you have pain ever since the surgery or are you just having pain now? You can try consulting with local board-certified plastic surgeons but you will probably not get satisfactory treatment. Each one of us takes care of our own patients with each and all of their issues. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
