Can you get hip revision after bbl?

bodiedddSep 17, 2016
I am 6 days post op from bbl/lipo and I hate how wide my hips look after. I asked that no hips be added because I was happy with the hips I had, he explained to me that he would just fill in the dents on my buttocks. He did that but I did not realize it would look as huge as it is does. My legs are too skinny and looks unproportionate, especially when I turn to the side. Am I going crazy and just need to let swelling go down? If not is there a way for this to be revised in the future? Thank u!

For any procedure involving liposuction, swelling will not resolve for up to 6 months.  Rushing into a revisional procedure at this point will only result in additional swelling and likely a poor outcome.
