How Do I Sleep After a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Has your butt deflated while you carry extra weight on other areas of your body? You’re certainly not alone. A procedure like a Brazilian Butt Lift can address this issue perfectly. It is a surgery though. And that means there’s a chance you’ll experience some discomfort when attempting to sleep after a Brazilian Butt Lift. We have some simple ways around this to make the discomfort far less. But first we’ll take a look at what this surgery entails. The Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure In a strange turn of events, this procedure actually has no direct connection with Brazil. Furthermore, it’s not a lift in the traditional sense of the word. It doesn’t actually address loose skin on the buttocks. A Brazilian butt lift improves the shape and size of the buttocks in situations where there is not excess skin. Patients who want this procedure prefer fat transfer over implants and need to have adequate fat stores in other areas of the body. So what goes into a Brazilian butt lift? First, excess fat is removed with liposuction from areas such as the thighs, abdomen, the area above the buttocks, and the lower back. This fat is then processed and prepared for transfer. From there, the plastic surgeon injects that fat into targeted areas of the buttocks where more volume or fuller shape is desired. This is typically an outpatient procedure that uses general anesthesia or intravenous sedation and local anesthesia. Best Ways to Sleep After a Brazilian Butt Lift It’s crucial that you avoid sitting directly upright for four weeks after surgery. Any decrease of circulation to the buttocks could result in the destruction of the newly transferred fat cells. (Yes, you’re allowed to sit down to use the toilet, but that’s it.) So that means you’re going to be in a reclined position for awhile. And this is good, as rest is essential for healing after surgery.
