I had a BBL 9 days ago and I'm healing very well my only serious problem is I am experiencing alot of pain and numbness in my lower back.. Any idea when this pain will go away ? or anything I can do to help with the pain ? can this be because I have had an epideral when having my child ?
Answer: Pain and numbness to lower back after BBL Dear Vixenn416,The lower back area is heavily liposuctioned in order do make a nice curve to this area and accentuate the buttocks. It is very common for the area to be numb (lack any sensation to pain) and then regain sensation over the next few weeks. As it regains the sensation you can experience some burning and tingling as the nerves recover. You should definitely let your plastic surgeon know about your symptoms. it is likely not associated with your history of an epidural. Hope this helps.

Answer: Brazilian Butt Lift 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.

Answer: Pain and numbness after body contouring Every patient has a different recovery experience. Numbness and discomfort in your lower back after fat grafting and liposuction can be common. It should resolve over the next several weeks. Please make your plastic surgeon aware of your complaints. Best wishes. Earl Stephenson Jr. M.D. DDS FACS

Answer: Numbness from Lipo Because of the liquid used during surgery and the fact that it's combined with lidocaine numbness can be expected to last for quite some time after the procedure. If you're truly worried, then contact you board certified plastic surgeon for a follow-up appointment.Thank you for your question!
