Is it ok to sit directly on your butt 6 weeks after bbl?

Follow your surgeon's post op instructions since they slightly differ from surgeon to surgeon.  In general, patients are able to sit directly on the buttocks 6 weeks after surgery.

I appreciate your question.



I would recommend that you discuss this question with your surgeon as every surgeon has their own respective post op protocol for his/her patients.  Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you are healing at this time.



The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.



Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.



Best of luck!

Every surgeon is different in what their post-operative management is. I allow patients to sit on the buttocks by about 2-3 weeks but not for very long times and I tell them to change position often.
