I regret my BBL and have psychological issues. I am 5 weeks post-op. I really wish I didn't do it and am having big psychological issues about it. My surgeon says I should wait but I want to remove it now.
Answer: I did my BBL and now i regret it. When can I take the fat out? Thank you for your question.It is very early to want to remove the fat. A lot of it will probably go on its own (the swelling will go as well 30-50 % of the fat injected). If after a few months you still feel the same, the fat can be suctioned out. Please discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon. All The Best !

Answer: Having issues post BBL How unfortunate that this has happened to you. My first response is that you should speak to a psychiatrist or counselor, so that you may gain an objective perspective. Cosmetic surgery changes one’s own body image, and working through this takes time and patience.

Answer: I did my BBL and now i regret it. When can I take the fat out? You will usually need at least 3 months before getting a revision. My recommendation is to wait a few more months before having lipo to remove some of the fat. You may find that you are pleased with your new shape in a few months. The results immediately following surgery will be the largest due to swelling and lack of fat resorption. The buttocks will continue to decrease in size for the first few weeks. 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.

Answer: Unhappy wth BBL Thanks for writing,Not all the fat grafted will survive, as a result it will take 4-6 months to reach a more final result. At that point you may find the volume is adequate, it not a liposuction revision is possible. I would speak to your surgeon about what he/she believes is your best options at this point.Stephen M. Davis, MD, FACS
