When should I start cupping therapy after my bbl? My butt look like it shrink is this normal?

Recovery from BBL is patient dependent. Much of this depends upon the amount of liposuction performed and the amount of fat transferred. I have observed that between 4 and 6 weeks the buttocks tend to stabilize in volume.  Usually by 3 months, the swelling is minimal and totally resolved by 6 months. I could not comment on cupping after lipo, but I have found that buttock dents respond very favorably to release and fat grafting.  Follow the post-operative protocols of your PS.

To begin, you're not far out enough from your BBL to worry about the final results -- you need to wait at least 3 months for the swelling to settle down. Next, cupping does not usually work to correct dent deformities. You'll need a BBL revision procedure to release the retaining ligaments with liposuction and then fat grafting to the area.If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) revision, the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or Facetime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
