How long should I wait to have rough sex after a BBL?

Question

I know a lot of girls ask when they can have sex on here, but when is it okay to have ROUGH sex? I'm almost 4 weeks post op and haven't sat on my butt at all, not even with a pillow. I'm just weary about ruining my results with the type of intercourse I'm used to having with my husband.

Brazilian Butt Lift recovery time is dependent on how the patient’s body reacts to the procedure. Patients usually return to work after a week but you should not sit without the use of cushions for at least two weeks and you must wear a compression garment for several weeks after the procedure. You should wait until at least 2 weeks after the procedure to engage in sexual activity. Swelling and discomfort normally fades at six weeks. After about a month you will be mostly healed and you can get a nice idea of the permanent results after around six months. You should wait until at least 2 weeks after the procedure to engage in sexual activity.

Thank you for your question. This is a very common question patients ask as they recover. Each surgeon will have their own instructions on your recovery involving exercise, sex, etc. I tell my patients to wait at least 6 weeks and of course listen to your body. If you start experiencing discomfort take it slow and ease into regular activity. Hope this helps,Dr. Newall

I recommend you wait at least 6 weeks but every surgeon has different post op care instructions he or she is your best resource, best of luck.

Dear FutureMiamiBod,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.Daniel Barrett, MD
