Can I exercise after 7 weeks if I have little results from BBL? My butt isn't as big as I want.

Brazilian Butt Lift recovery time is dependent on how the patient’s body reacts to the procedure. Patients usually return to work after a week but you should not sit without the use of cushions for at least two weeks and you must wear a compression garment for several weeks after the procedure. You should wait until at least 2 weeks after the procedure to engage in sexual activity. Swelling and discomfort normally fades at six weeks. After about a month you will be mostly healed and you can get a nice idea of the permanent results after around six months.

Postoperatively, no specific position is indicated and we do not have any sitting restrictions. The pressure caused by sitting is not sufficient to affect viability of the fat cells and so the postsurgical position depends basically on comfort and any other operations that have been performed. Patients use girdles for 6 weeks and start therapeutic lymphatic drainage and ultrasound massages in the liposuctioned areas, which continue daily for a total of 10 sessions. Patients canreturn to light activities almost immediately after surgery, normal activities 2 weeks after surgery, and vigorous exercise 4 weeks after surgery. We usually experience a slow steady improvement for 3 months or so after surgery.

Thanks for your question. I tell my BBL patients to wait at least 6 weeks to resume any strenuous activities. It will be best if you contact your surgeon with your concern. Best,Dr. Newall

Dear mfeld79321It is always important to follow your surgeons instructions. In general, I tell my patients they can resume full activity 6 weeks after BBL. You should call your surgeons office and discuss your concerns and questions.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
I recommend my patients to wait at least 4-6 weeks before resuming their workout routine (cardio, lift, etc.).
Lifting, squats and lunges after a BBL will only help increase muscle bulk and definition and achieve a more projected buttocks.
If you have any concerns, I suggest you follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Hope this is helpful. Good luck :)

You should follow ONLY your surgeons post operative recommendations on activity and exercise. Yes, myself and others may allow our patients to exercise earlier but  your doctor has his/her own reasoning for the 3 month restriction and you should stick with these recommendations.
