5 weeks after BBL, can I start doing squats to maintain my butt size or even make it bigger?

Dear Reader,In my practice, I advise patients to refrain from strenuous exercise (such as weight training) for at least 6 to 8 weeks after this type of surgery.  Let your body heal before you stress it out.  Good luck and be safe.Respectfully, John T.

Thank you for your question. With brazilian butt lift patients can return to light activities almost immediately after surgery, normal activities 2 weeks after surgery, and vigorous exercise 4 weeks after surgery.  We usually experience a slow steady improvement for 3 months or so after surgery. Best is to follow your specific surgeon's instructions as every surgeon has their own  preferences as to recovery for specific procedures.
