How long after having a BBL can you sit without worrying about losing fat?

Thank you for your question. After a BBL procedure, I have my patients avoid direct pressure on the area for at least 4 weeks following surgery. During the first week, no pressure is allowed so that tissue diffusion of nutrients and neovascularization is not compromised. For the rest of the month, sitting on specialized pillows that avoid direct pressure is fine. I find that there are rarely any significant changes in graft survival after the first 3-4 months.
Every surgeon has a different opinion on this matter, so it is best to discuss with your plastic surgeon for their recommendations. Good luck!

I allow my patients to sit for short periods of time at 2-3 weeks after surgery.  Other surgeons tell patients to wait a bit longer. You are best to ask your surgeon.
