6 weeks post BBL with very uneven hips. Can I lipo the added fat in my hips out? (photos)

Thanks for your pictures and questions. I can appreciate your concerns regarding asymmetry of your results. However, keep in mind that at this time, you are only 6 weeks out from surgery. It is going to take 3-6 months for the final results to be revealed and you would be extremely ill-advised to do any intervention at this time to try to correct something that may resolve on its own. Try to be patient and follow the advice of your board-certified (ABPS) plastic surgeon.Best of luck!Dallas R. Buchanan, MD, FACSOwner & Board-Certified Plastic SurgeonVIVIFY plastic surgery

Thanks for your question...You are early post op, it can take up to 3 months for your final result to show. Please see your surgeon if you are still concerned.You can learn more on our social media (Instagram and Snapchat): @realdrsix.

Regards,

In general it takes over 6 months for fat grafts to take and become your own tissue. In buttock and breast an average of 50% of fat grafts placed during surgery will survive after  that period. In other words patients is going to loose about 50% of volume she had few weeks after surgery because of swelling and fat graft reduction. As a result of fat graft survival it make take (survive) better is some areas than others causing asymmetry. This is not something that can be controlled by a surgeon; it will need another surgery by means of combination of localized liposuction and fat grafting to be corrected. I would suggest waiting at leas 6 months before correction. 

Thank you for your question I recommend you wait at least 3 months for additional surgery, but every surgeon has different protocols continue to follow up with your PS to go over your options.

Dear BrownBeauty2016,I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a BBL surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides  you will be able to see the final result of your surgery.Daniel Barrett, MD

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
You are still early on the healing process, it can take up to six months to see your final results, so please be patient. At the stage you are in, inflammation is normal.
If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)

Thank you for the question and photos. I would recommend waiting a few months to achieve final results and re-evaluate your hips since there is still some swelling at this time. It is possible to liposuction some fat if needed later. Seek a board certified plastic surgeon who performs many of these procedures, has great reviews and photos, and is an expert in this field.

You look good and it is likely that your figure will still change, usually there are side-to-side differences between the parts of the body, to which you add the swelling. I suggest patience and follow the recommendations of your surgeon about it.

 Thank you for your question. I would like to say that you look fantastic and have had a very nice result. I do understand your concern. You were still in the very early postoperative period in the tissues will continue to change over the next couple of weeks to months. This can always be evened out if there is any symmetry with a smaller  liposuction or fat grafting procedure. I would advise waiting at least three months to ensure most of the swelling has resolved to make your final assessment with you plastic surgeon. 

Hello,Thank you for sharing the information, it is a pleasure for me to answer your question.. you should wait for the recovery, it is very recent, it is advisable, wait 6 to 8 months after the procedure,
Following the recommendations of your surgeon is very important. The recovery takes around 4 to 6 weeks, you must perform lymphatic drainage massages, for me more, and you can continue your normal activities, perform light exercises, then increase the routine without any problem
I hope this answer will help youMy best wishes for you ...
