What position will I be able to sleep in after a BBL with drains?

Hi there, Normally, it's important that you do not place any weight on your buttocks for about 2 weeks after surgery. We recommend that you do not sit or lay on your back until it is safe to do so. There are also special BBL pillows available to help you sleep comfortably. Please speak to your surgeon for any questions or details regarding post op recovery.

Hi there, thank you for your question. you should not compress on your buttocks after the surgery. That's why, you can only sleep on your stomach or sides for 1 month.

Hi, thanks for your question. Typically, we recommend that you stay off your buttocks for 2 weeks following your surgery, so no sitting on it or lying flat on your back. So you'll need to adjust your sleeping and sleep on your stomach or your side, if you don't already do so. There are also specialized pillows that can ensure that you aren't putting any pressure on your bum. Your surgeon will be able to provide you with all your post recovery details. Please speak to him/her if you have any other questions or concerns about your recovery.
