Is been 4 weeks after lipo and bbl fat tranfer my belly and my lower back is itchy and some days heard more im wearing my garment 24/7 how long more for all the pain to go away
Answer: Back and Belly Itching Itching is fairly common after surgery. If there is any sign of rash or allergic reaction, that would be something different. My patients choose to wear a cotton t-shirt under the garment to lessen the itching. I would try to email or call the surgeon. Surgeons want to know about potential problems.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: It could take months This is a great question and one that we always discuss with our patients before surgery. A BBL is such a great procedure but the recovery happens in stages for sure (in most of my patients at least). The initial phase is just the post op discomfort which typically lasts just a few days. Then the bruising and swelling stage with the bruising revolving in a couple of weeks and the swelling resolving almost completely in a few months. Everyone is different and heals different but this is typical.

Answer: BBL The photos are a bit dark, and itchiness can be from many different sources including normal healing and a rash. You are best to be seen in person. If the garment is too tight,. you may need an alternative garment.
