Answer: TOO SOON TO EVALUATE YOUR BBL FINAL RESULTS. Hello Compassionate3905, I appreciate your questions! Three days is too short of a time to assess your final BBL outcome. Maximum results would take up to six months to show. I would suggest waiting at least 4 more weeks for the swelling to recede and evaluate the results. If you are still dissatisfied with the outcome, consult with your aesthetic plastic surgeon about your concerns and improvements’ options. There may be a percentage of fat that does not take, which is why touchup procedures are sometimes necessary. Hope this is helpful! Dr. De La Cruz.

Answer: Concern 3 days after BBL Hi andwelcome to our forum!Congratulationson your recent procedure...The procedure of liposuction is an"insult" to the soft tissues, resulting in swelling which willinitially totally obscure the operative result. Thepurpose of a compression garment is to prevent bleeding and to controlswelling. We usually recommend its use for the first 4-6 weeks after theprocedure. 60-80%of the swelling should subside within the first 6 weeks, with the remainderslowly subsiding over 6-12 months. In addition, the overlying skin must readjust to accept the changes in underlying volume. This will take at least several months.In brief, it is far, far too early to assess the postoperative result. Continuefollowup care with your plastic surgeon...Best wishes...

Answer: Early result after BBL It is impossible to judge result after any procedure so early. It takes at least 6 months before real result of liposuction and fat transfer is revealed. In a period of 5-8 months patient is expected to loose around 50% of injected fat volume. I would encourage you to follow recommended schedule regarding postoperative massage, garment, diet, activity and stay patient for few more months. Good luck.

Answer: 3 days after surgery is too soon to worry Hello and thank you for your surgery. It is normal to be worried early in the post-operative period as you have invested time, money and trust to seek improvement. Make sure to relay your concerns to your surgeon and follow their exact directions. A lot of times people look worse initially before they see changes because the inflammation is severe and there is a lot of swelling and it is hard to see the final result. Based on how typical wound healing occurs and the inflammatory process is modulated, you can expect to see a better glimpse of your final silhouette at 3-6 months after surgery. I hope this helps and best of luck to you.Sincerely,Dr. Sean Kelishadi
