I’m 4.5 weeks post op bbl, but I just recently noticed a flat spot on my lower right butt cheek. I followed all of my surgeons post op instructions and didn’t sit for the first 3 weeks, and am now sitting on a boppy pillow and still sleeping on my front. Will this flat spot go away or do I need more fat injected into this area?
