I'll be 5 weeks post op BBL on Friday, August 5th... We have a yearly county fair in our county and I really want to take my kids... I'm not planning to sit down or ride any rides, but I would be doing quite a bit of walking (probably about 2 hours or so) and obviously it will be crowded so I might bump my butt into people or things.. Would it be ok to attend or should I just miss out on the fun and let dad take them? .. Thanks in advance for your input

Answer: How much activity is too much after BBL? Thank you for your question. I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon. Every surgeon has their own specific post op protocol for their patients and your surgeon is the best resource when questions arise. They are most familiar with your medical history, details of your surgery, and how you are healing. In my office, Brazilian butt lift patients can return to prolonged sitting after four weeks. After five weeks they would have no restrictions and could attend the fair. The walking and activity may increase swelling in the areas of liposuction, but this would results with time.Congratulations on your recent surgery.

Answer: BBL Recovery Thanks for your question. The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure generally has an easy recovery, depending on the extent of the liposuction performed to harvest the fat .Recovery from liposuction and brazilian buttock is usually 1-2 weeks. More active activities can start as soon as 2-3 weeks. Patients may experience bruising and tenderness in the areas where lipo was performed, with very little pain on the actual buttocks.You should be fine to go to the county fair but of course Internet discussion does not replace the advice of your surgeon. So follow up with your surgeon if you have any concerns. Hope this helps,Dr. Newall
