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! Dr. Schwartz Board Certified Plastic Surgeon #RealSelf100Surgeon
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.
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.
Thank you for your question.Every surgeon will have a slightly different aftercare protocol based on their technique, experiences and beliefs but I recommend that my patients do not put any pressure on the buttocks for at least 3 weeks post op as it can increase the risk of the fat cells not surviving. After 3 weeks and beyond sitting is fine as long as the patient is comfortable. Best of luck in your recovery.Sincerely,James Fernau, MD, FACSBoard Certified ENTBoard Certified Plastic SurgeryMember of ASPS, ASAPS, ISAPS, The Rhinoplasty Society, AAFPRS, OTO/HNS, ASLMS, International Federation for Adipose Therapeutics & Science

Thank you for your question. Butt implants are made of a solid or semi-solid silicone. Butt lifts utilize a patient's own body fat to create their desired shape. A Brazilian butt lift also may have a lowered risk of infection since the patient's own body fat is used for the procedure. Price...
Fourteen days should be sufficient for recovery after a BBL. Always important to get the all clear from your surgeon for returning back to work.

Without knowing how much fluid you were given at the time of surgery, or the details of how much fat was removed and re injected, it is hard to give any opinion. Please show your surgeon in person your swelling. Best wishes.
