How much activity is too much after BBL?

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.

This is something you should speak directly with your surgeon about.  In my practice, I would not have an issue with this.Best of Luck!  Please reach out if you have any further questions or concerns.

Congratulations on completing your BBL surgery.  At about 5 weeks, I would say that is okay
for you to attend the county fair and walk around at this point.  However, every plastic surgeon has their own
postop protocol.  I typically recommend
that patients do not sit for about 3 weeks and after that I suggest that when
they do sit it is on cushions or pads, but I do not have any restrictions in
terms of walking.  I would suggest that
you check with your plastic surgeon to see what he/she recommends.  I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question.I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients.  Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time.

The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.

Best of luck!
