This Patient Cannot Stop Getting Compliments After BBL Surgery Recovery!

I was not much convinced with the implants approach as I was not okay with inserting anything inside my body. I was healthy enough to go for fat grafting because I had excess fat in my waist and abdomen. Dr Priya suggested removal of fat circumferentially from the waist region to have a dual effect of narrow waistline adding to the buttock enhancement. Therefore I opted for the fat grafting approach. 

The Procedure (In Dr Priya’s Words)

• As a usual practice, I administered general anaesthesia and marked the areas where incisions were required
• Since the patient opted for the fat grafting procedure, I removed the excess fat from her lower back and abdomen region using MicroAire and Vaser Liposuction techniques. Thus the fat was emulsified and liquefied enough. The fat cells were treated to remain intact. 
• Thereafter, I reinserted the fat in the buttock area using a power-assisted machine via the EVL technique. EVL or Expansion Vibration Lipofilling is a modern scientific technique to reinstate and distribute the fat in the desired body part more naturally and with least risk. 
• Finally, the buttocks were recontoured to give a smoother, natural appearance. 

We use the latest devices acquired internationally at our medical facility to rectify additional asymmetries from earlier liposuction treatments. The body regions from where we take out the excess fat, and the amount of fat to graft  inside the buttocks are very important decisions to make.

Post Surgery Period – Recovery Stage (Rihanna)

I had a successful surgery without any severe complications. However, I experienced a few potential discomforts, which is normal after every surgery. 

• I had some swelling which decreased over the next few weeks.
• I felt a little uncomfortable lying down in a flat, prone posture with my chest down and back up direction for a few weeks after surgery but this was mandatory for fat survival and had been explained to me prior surgery.
• The first recovery period took up to three days. After that, I could resume my usual activities.   
• I was using a BBL pillow while sitting as it was reducing the pressure on my buttocks.
• After one week, Dr Bansal allowed me to do my regular office work. 
• I was allowed to do rigorous exercises after two weeks.

Dr Bansal suggested wearing a compression garment for the coming six weeks to maintain my new curves. The results are still increasing every day three months, and I am quite pleased with the outcome. With no hip dips and a flawlessly projecting butt, I’ve finally achieved the curvy body I’ve always desired. 

I believe that having a female plastic surgeon was also beneficial. I felt more at ease articulating my needs and expectations, and Dr Priya double-checked that I understood everything. Her crew was also incredibly kind and made sure I was comfortable during my surgery.
