How does running and elliptical effect results after bbl recovery?

Hello dear, thanks for your question and provided information as well.. After the procedure, fat cells can get absorbed from the buttocks, if you get a 100% of injected fat, an amount of aprox. 40%, that may happen for the first 4 to 6 weeks. To prevent this dont do excersises, or diets, use your boopy pillow for at least 8 weeks.

I allow my patients to begin running within 4 weeks after surgery. Running or the elliptical should not have any affect on your result. However, if you are to gain and loose weight it will. Always, check with your board certified plastic surgeon on their post operative care instructions. Best wishes.

Hello and thank you for your question!Physical activity is important in terms of decreasing the amount of tissue and increasing the blood flow to the graft, however, it needs to be moderate. In order for the fat to survive in the area where it was injected, you would need rest for at least 2 weeks. Whenever you choose to begin after the two weeks, start out with one exercise for some time, and then you are able to do more as time passes. Be very careful with any heavy lifting.Please visit a board certified plastic surgeon for further advice and the best, safest results.Good luck!
