Crazy horrible itching, burning and tingling 1 month post 360 lipo & Bbl. I’m desperate for help. Will this end

Hello and Great Question.  I appreciate the time you are spending researching this procedure.  My name is Dr. Matthew J. Nykiel.  I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellowship Trained Cosmetic Surgeon, and a Butt Augmentation Specialist.
I understand how that can be frustrating.  However, it is completely normal and very frequent 1 month post op.  I recommend speaking with your surgeon he/she is your best source of information.  In my practice, we have patient take Ibuprofen and utilize Benadryl and Cortisol Cream (Over the Counter).  Lymphatic massage also helps significantly.  I hope that helps!  Best of Luck!

Thank you for your question.
Your itching seems to be related to small, sensory nerves. You are taking a medication for neuropathic pain. If this is not helping you should talk to your Plastic Surgeon or a specialist that he can refer you to. Fortunately, this is  usually a temporary condition, and should improve spontaneously.  All The Best !

Thank you for your question. I would suggest consulting more thoroughly with your surgeon. They will know exactly what was done and what could possibly be causing this itching and burning. Good Luck.

Thanks for writing,Two things need to be considered. 1) external sources: Your garment and the latex may be a source, topical creams you may be using could be a problem. 2) Internal sources: Medications that you are taking, inflammatory response to the grafting itself, potential nerve injury as a result of the grafting or harvesting. I would check with your operating Plastic Surgeon as he / she knows exactly what was done and I am certain they can help you as there are lots of options.

I think the neurontin is a good idea. It's important to follow up with your surgeon as he/she may need to increase your doesage. Another thing to try would be to take an anti-histamine before bedtime. Sometimes intensely itchy skin can be an environmental allergy. Hope this helps.

I’m sure you are miserable with such intense itching. In my experience, this is a temporary problem, lasting 2-3 weeks. I would suggest anti-histamines at bedtime, as long as they are safe to take with preagabalin. Otherwise, twice daily massage therapy with a neutral moisturizer should help speed your recovery and lessen the itching. Best of luck.
