I am looking for realistic advice on the recovery time for BA ( swap of implants) and a BBL . I KNOW some docs dont prefer to do this BUT i am only looking for doctors who do both at the same time. I am lean from working out naturally so I dont have a ton of fat
Answer: Recovery time BBL and replacement implants Hi, It is not unusual for patients to have simultaneous breast surgery and a BBL. Simply removing and replacing breast implants is fairly straightforward and there is usually a week to 10 days of discomfort for most patients at most. If additional work is performed this could increase the discomfort. In regards to a BBL I don't have my patients sit directly on their buttock for 3 weeks. They are sitting on a pillow which is placed in the middle of the thighs. It also depends on how many areas are going to be liposuctioned. Best of luck.

Answer: BA and BBL at the same time Thank you for your question. First we need to evaluate if you are a candidate to do those procedure at the same time. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body from different angles. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results. Respectfully, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Recovery time after BBL and BA Your recovery time would very much depend on what do you do for living. It is enough to have one week for both surgeries if done at the same time, in particular since you have implant exchange. In person or virtual consult with a board certified plastic surgeon familiar and capable to perform both procedures, is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Realistic advice on recovery time for BBL & BA implant swap? Hi @nad2010. Doing a BBL together with a BA with implants exchange needs to have the same care as if you do the procedure separate. Every doctor has their own protocol, always follow YOUR doctors protocol. The major care you need to have with this combination is your breast doing your regular activities can affect the healing of them your BBL procedure with a month is good enough to be back to normal activities, but having a breast surgery as well your healing time can be until 3 months. Hope this helps.

Answer: Recovery time Dear nad2010, I understand your concern. It is best that you consult your plastic surgeon regarding post operative care and management (i.e including massage techniques and timing) specific to your case. Your surgeon knows your condition well and has preferences on when and what to use for faster healing and recovery. Post operative care and management depends on the type of surgery performed and the technique used during surgery among other factors.
