I had BBL 2 months ago. I am very unhappy about the very noticeable incision marks the doc left me with. I never see scars like mine here in the forum. Usually, they should be hidden somewhere discretely, shouldn't they? Was I botched?
Answer: Incisons for lipo or bbl Thank you for sharing your photos. The incisions for liposuction and bbl depend on the technique that is going to be used in the surgery and of every surgeon choice. I hope my answer will help you to your question.Before undergoing any surgical procedure, please seek a board certified plastic surgeon

Answer: BBL scars Thanks so much for reaching out. The scores for BBL typically are hidden in the bikini line. However sometimes so pockets of fat or hard to get at from these positions in which case the incisions may be placed in a more noticeable spot. Scars will fade more given some more time. You definitely were not botched. I hope this helps :-)

Answer: #BBL #Brazilianbuttlift #plasticsurgery Congratulations on your recent surgery and thank you for sharing your question about your post operative recovery and results after your surgery. Final results can take 6-12 months for all the swelling to subside. At our office here at CARE we actually see all of our surgery patients the very next day after surgery and then again at two weeks and beyond. We enjoy staying closely connected to our patients and enjoy giving the extra attention and service. Your concerns are important to discuss directly with your board certified plastic surgeon. He or she will appreciate the open communication and will want to help you. I hope this is helpful and wish you all the very best. Sincerely, Brian S. Coan, MD, FACS

Answer: Great question!! In our practice we try to put incisions in old scars or in areas that can be easily covered by underwear or shorts. This isn't always possible for a variety of reasons, but this is something tat we try to do. It is always a good idea to talk about scar placement with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon before the procedure so there are no surprises. Sometimes, during the case an extra entry site or two is needed and we often discuss this preoperatively with our patients and they know that we will do our best to keep the scars as hidden as we can given their anatomy and the individual circumstances of each case. People also scar very differently. Some patients develop keloids others scar so well that the entry sites are barely noticeable. As always, I would recommend discussing your concerns with your surgeon. I hope this helps!

Answer: BBL incisions No one is going to say it was a poor job. There are a multitude of opinions of where to place and how many incisions. I am of the school that there should be a minimum of incisions, the smaller the better and hidden in the Bikini line or axillas etc. whenever possible.The incisions you have should continue to heal and fade over time so I',m sure with your skin tones, they will look much better in the next 6 months.Best of luck.Dr T
