How long should I wait to have a BBL after having a baby?

Hello and thank you for your question.  I have many post-partum clients who have had BBL.  It is hard to give you exact advice without photos, but many women develop a "muffin top" after pregnancy due to the lipodystrophy (fat pockets that develop) that takes place around the waist, flanks, and lower back.  Performing liposuction of this area slims the waistline, makes the buttocks appear more perkier, and transferring fat to the buttocks and hips further enhances this look.  Whether or not you would also benefit from a tummy tuck depends on a) if you plan to have any future children (as having more children will ruin your tummy tuck), b) your skin quality, c) your goals, etc.  In general, a tummy tuck in addition to BBL offers the ultimate silhouette for many post-partum women. I recommend you seek a one hour consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in mommy makeovers and advanced body contouring techniques. I hope this helps and best of luck to you!Sincerely,Dr. Sean Kelishadi

There are several things that go into making this decision. If you had a c-section you would have to wait at least 3 months to let things heal. You also want to wait until you are finished breast feeding. It is best to wait at least 6 weeks after you are finished breast feeding to give the extra hormones time to get out of your system.
