- Walk. Stretch your legs. You need to keep moving to decreasing the risk of developing blood clots after surgery.
- Wear your compression garment at all times. Remove it only to take a shower. Then, put it back on.
- For the first 2 to 3 weeks, rest only on your stomach or on your legs. After that, you can use the BBL Pillow to sit.
- Drink fluids to stay hydrated.
- Take all medications prescribed by your doctor.
THIS IS WHAT YOU SHOULD NOT DO AFTER A BBL
- Do not sit on your buttocks for the first weeks of recovery (2 to 8 weeks, depending on your doctor’s recommendation). Use the BBL Pillow to sit on the back of your thighs.
- Do not put any stress on the area of the buttocks that received fat transplants.
- Do not smoke. Avoid smoking for at least 2 months after the procedure. The use of cigarettes and drugs can seriously increase the risk of developing complications.
