Any suggestions on supplies needed for a tummy tuck and bbl being done at the same time?

Question

Things that will make recovery easier. Thanks!

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Your plastic surgeon's office staff should provide you with a list of items you will need to assist in your recovery.  They typically provide a compression garment for you to wear during recovery and suggestions for a high-protein diet. Discharge instructions will be explained, and your post-op appointment schedule will be reviewed.  The following day during the post-op phone call, ask any additional questions you may have. Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Eugene Kim, MD · Answer

The type of garment to be worn after surgery is dependent on your plastic
surgeon’s preference. They do make specific garments for BBL and that is the
one I tend to use for my patients. It is best to follow-up with your Plastic
Surgeon for more specific questions.

While every surgeon has a different routine before and after , the one thing that all patients are glad to have is a walker.  You can rent one for a week from a pharmacy or surgical supply.

Hi,It's my pleasure to answer your question.I recommend you to ask your surgeon any doubts about the procedure before and after the surgery.Sincerely,Dr. Aramis Vega

Vincent D. Lepore, MD (retired) · Answer

The most important asset to have following a tummy tuck and BBL is a dedicated family member or friend to help you in and out of bed and to help you navigate to and from the bathroom.  You will probably need this assistance for at least 2 to 3 days following the procedure.   A walker or cane can also help.  Be certain to have plenty of extra pillows to pad your back and leg; this will help take pressure off of the buttocks.  Be certain to check with your surgeon for their recommendations, as well.  Best wishes, Dr. Lepore.
