Planning for after surgery

Make plans for someone to drive you home from the surgery and help you during your first few days of healing.

Mental Preparation

Depending on the type of surgery (standard butt lift vs. Brazilian Butt Lift or BBL), the following steps must be taken:

Anesthesia: The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia.

Procedure Steps:

1.Traditional Butt Lift:

• Incisions: Incisions are made on the upper buttocks, hips, groin, or lower buttocks to remove excess sagging skin and tissues.
• Lifting and Tightening: The buttocks are lifted, and the skin is tightened to create a youthful appearance.
• Closure: Incisions are closed with sutures, and drains may be placed to remove excess fluids. A compression garment is applied to minimize swelling and support healing.

2.Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL):

• Liposuction: Fat is harvested from other parts of the body using liposuction.
• Fat Processing: The extracted fat is purified and prepared for injection.
• Fat Injection: The purified fat is strategically injected into the buttocks to enhance size and shape.

Duration

• Traditional Butt Lift: typically lasts between 2 to 5 hours.
• BBL: Generally takes 2 to 3 hours.

Care after surgery is very important for quick healing and the best results:

Care Right After Surgery

• Incision Care: Follow the directions for wound care to prevent infection.
• Medication: Take your doctor’s medicines to control pain and keep infections at bay.

Limits on Activities

• Don’t sit down: For at least two weeks, don’t sit on your bottom directly. When you sit, use pillows to ease the pressure.
• Gradual Activity: Start doing regular things as your surgeon tells you to, usually in two to three weeks.

Visits to follow up

• Check-ups: Attend all of your follow-up visits as planned to ensure you’re healing correctly and to discuss any worries you have. Follow your surgeon’s butt lift instructions about caring for your wound, how active you should be, and any other treatments or services you may need.
• Long-Term Care: Remember this: Stick to eating healthy and staying active to maintain your results for as long as possible. Watch for any changes, and be sure to let your surgeon know right away.
