How Long After Having a BBL Does It Take for the Butt to Get Soft Again and Normal Feeling?

Thanks for your question. Healing after Brazilian butt lift is usually pretty straight forward.  There is a process of swelling and bruising that peaks at 3 days after surgery and then undergoes the first stage of major resolution in the first 2 weeks after surgery.  The lateer phase of healing takes place over the 2-3 months after surgery where everything really settles and softens.  It is after this time that we are getting close to the final result, though this varies patient to patient.

I find that it takes about three months for everything to soften and stabilize completely.  There can be some occasional soreness of the buttocks that comes and goes over the first year.  

In general the recovery from a BBL is pretty fast in terms f getting back to normal and doing all of your activities including exercise with the exception of sitting. It takes about 12 months really for all of the swelling to completely resolve which always is a surprise and quite honestly was a surprise to me as well as I began my training years ago. As for the softness it is quite variable and your butt can be soft in a month in some patients while others make take a little longer but not nearly as long as it takes for the lipo swelling to go down.Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery
