Would an inflatable BBL mattress be helpful for sleep after tummy tuck/lipo/BBL?

Combining tummy tuck with BBL is becoming more prevalent. However, the recovery becomes challenging because the postoperative positioning is not complimentary. Sleeping one side will make you swell more on that side. Some physicians advocate a BBL mattress. Check with your surgeon for his/her preference.

Having a full tummy tuck, and a BBL and done at the same time are not complementary procedures. Recovering from the procedure should’ve been discussed during your in person consultation. A BBL mattress is unlikely to be useful because he will not be able to lay flat on your back After a tummy tuck.
Having this combination surgery will inevitably cause you to lay it, and sit on your fat, grafted buttocks.
Some plastic surgeons promote doing these as combine procedures. I’m not one of those. My recommendation is for patients to do these at separate procedures for a multitude of reasons. The very challenging recovery is one good reason to do these except procedures, but I also find that their results came to be Slightly better when patient procedures.
In the end with you have combined procedures, or do the most separate procedures the most important variables are understanding your candidacy and choosing the right provider. When patients have more than one operation, they need to vet plastic surgeons for each procedure they’re having done.
Delivering consistent quality, liposuction and fat transfer result is more difficult than most people believe in. Some plastic surgeons also limit liposuction when done in conjunction with a tummy tuck for safety reasons.
Your surgeon is responsible for your well-being with all the issues related to the procedure. If you still have questions after your consultation, and I suggest you contact your provider.
