May I use a heating pad to relive pain after a BBL surgery?

Do not use a heating pad or ice around the surgical sites. Heat could cause a burn as the skin is numb. Three weeks to six months after surgery, heat may be helpful to soften areas of scarring and skin tightness that occur as part of the normal healing process. Obtain approval from your PS before using a heating pad.Kenneth Hughes, MD, ABPS Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dear Coqui007,
heating pat can cause burns in early postoperative period. But every plastic surgeon has his own postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.
