The Dos And Don’ts Of Bum Filler Aftercare

Following proper aftercare procedures after a bum filler procedure is crucial for optimal results and minimizing complications.

Here are some essential dos for bum filler aftercare:

Follow your practitioner’s instructions meticulously. They will provide specific guidelines tailored to your individual needs and the type of filler used.
Apply ice packs to the treated area for 15-20 minutes at a time, several times a day, during the first 48 hours post-procedure. This helps reduce swelling and discomfort.
Elevate your legs whenever possible, especially when resting or sleeping. This promotes lymphatic drainage and minimizes fluid buildup.
Wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothing that won’t rub or irritate the treated area. Avoid tight pants or underwear that could put pressure on the injection site.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. This helps flush toxins from your body and aids in tissue healing.
Avoid strenuous exercise, heavy lifting, or any activity that puts excessive strain on the injected area for at least 2 weeks after the procedure.
Use a gentle cleanser to wash the treated area twice daily. Avoid harsh soaps or scrubs, as they can irritate the skin.
Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for several weeks after the procedure. Sun exposure can cause redness, discoloration, and hinder healing.
Attend all follow-up appointments with your practitioner. They will monitor your progress, address any concerns, and ensure optimal results.

Hydration is Key

Gentle Cleansing

Compression Therapy

Compression therapy is crucial for optimizing bum filler results and minimizing complications.

After undergoing a bum lift or Brazilian butt augmentation (BBL), compression garments are essential to support the newly implanted fat, reduce swelling, and promote proper tissue integration.

Wearing a compression garment consistently as directed by your surgeon will help:

• Minimize bruising and swelling

• Promote blood circulation and lymphatic drainage

• Prevent fluid build-up in the treated area

• Reduce discomfort and pain

• Shape the contours of the buttocks and ensure a smooth result

Failure to follow compression therapy guidelines can lead to several undesirable outcomes:

• Uneven contouring or lumps

The Dos and Don’ts of Bum Filler Aftercare

Skip the Tight Clothes

Skip the tight clothes. After bum filler treatment, it’s crucial to allow the treated area to heal properly and reduce the risk of complications like bruising, swelling, or infection.

Wearing tight clothing can constrict blood flow to the area, hindering the healing process. It can also put pressure on the newly injected filler, causing discomfort and potentially affecting the shape and results.

Instead, opt for loose-fitting, comfortable garments made from breathable fabrics like cotton or linen. This will allow your skin to breathe and promote optimal healing.
