I was wondering if I go back to work 3 weeks of having my bbl will I be able to wear scrubs ? I work in the OR so I’m not sure if I need to take off more time or not
Answer: Can I wear hospital scrubs 3 weeks after a BBL? The typical liposuction patient can go back to work in a week’s time, while wearing the compression garment for the first 4 to 6 weeks under your scrubs. I have observed that between 4 and 6 weeks the buttocks tend to stabilize in volume. (Initially, you may need larger size scrubs.) Usually by 3 months, the swelling is minimal and totally resolved by 6 months. Limit your salt consumption and drink no alcohol.

Answer: Postoperative protocol Dear mdalle30, I understand your concern. It is best that you consult your plastic surgeon regarding post operative care and management (i.e including massage techniques and timing) specific to your case. Your surgeon knows your condition well and has preferences on when and what to use for faster healing and recovery. Post operative care and management depends on the type of surgery performed and the technique used during surgery among other factors.It is best, however, that you follow your plastic surgeon's advice on post operative care management for a smooth and faster healing and recovery.

Answer: Wearing of scrubs 3 weeks following surgery Wearing of scrubs after 3 weeks following surgery is normal and won't affect your results. As long as you don't have any cuts, patients are encouraged to return to normal activity at 3 weeks. Please consider a consultation with a BBL specialist to get more insight.

Answer: Time off for a BBL Three weeks seems like a luxurious amount of time to recover after having liposuction and fat transfer. We typically tell patients that they need 5 to 7 days though they’ll still be a little sore after and may still have sitting restrictions if not using a BBL pillow.. People very and how they perceive recovery from surgery and some people feel three weeks is what they need while others are up doing things within a day or two. The recovery for this procedure really is not that bad. Intense to be worst in the morning when getting out of bed especially the first two or three days after which it gets better day by day and people typically feel better once they get moving throughout the day.
