I am having a BBL with fat transferred to my hips as well. Is there a recommendation for compression garment that will protect the fat in my hips as well as buttocks?
Answer: BBL Hello and thank you for your excellent question. In general, we suggest just a regular compression garment that extends from the knees to waist. Based on your desires, I would suggest that you look into either a BBL, buttock augmentation with implants, or perhaps use of Sculptra to augment your buttocks. Of course, you will need an in-person consultation to evaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. Any treatment plan should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation in person with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
