I saw my friend go into surgery weighing 135. The day she came out she was 140. How does someone like that maintain their weight when they don’t know which number to maintain??…. Yes you have to eat healthy and drink water and live a healthy lifestyle. But how do you know when you’re eating too much or you’re eating to little because you are unsure of what number would be maintaining your weight.

Answer: How do you know what weight to maintain after surgery? Maintaining a stable weight after liposuction will ensure that the results are long-lasting. There is a protein shake called Premier Protein. Each bottle has 30g of protein and only 1g of sugar. They come in various flavors. Drink at least 3 of those a day to make up for the 100g needed. You can find these shakes at Costco, CVS or Target. Eat balanced meals in addition to these shakes and do not calorie restrict, as the body is in a hypermetabolic state after surgery and needs nutrients to heal. The postoperative period is not the time to start a diet or reduce calories. Poor nutrition or suboptimal nutrition can lead to fluid collections, incision separation and opening, and poor scarring among other complications.

Answer: Weight Maintenance If you are solely having the fat being transferred from one area of your body to your buttocks, you generally want to maintain your preoperative weight (+/- 5 lbs.) Your friend weighed more immediately after her procedure due to water retention, edema, and postoperative swelling. If you are a good candidate (less than 5L of fat) for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons. A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

Answer: Weight after surgery Hello and thank you for your question. Typically after surgery patients are very swollen, which leads to temporary weight gain due to water accumulation in the body. The weight she had prior to surgery would be what she should base her weight off of. Please see a board-certified physician for your consultation. Best of luck to you!
