Can I sit after buttock fat grafting? How should I sleep?

Pretty Body and Line Clinic

At Pretty Body and Line Clinic, we advise that after buttock fat grafting, when you sit, you lean your back against the chair so that your buttocks are not pressed. For sleep, we recommend lying on your stomach for about 1 month.

Why should the area not be pressed?

Grafted fat needs to receive a blood supply and establish itself in its new location. It is important not to put your body weight on that area during recovery, so at Pretty Body and Line Clinic we give separate guidance on sitting and sleeping positions after buttock grafting.

How is it different from facial fat grafting?

Body fat grafting at Pretty Body and Line Clinic means the buttocks and the chest. The biggest difference from the face is that the volume of fat required is much larger. The harvest area therefore has to be set broadly, and harvesting and grafting effectively become an operation on the scale of liposuction.

Where is the fat harvested from?

It is obtained from places where the fat layer is thick, such as the abdomen or thighs. If you also want the contour shaped, we plan liposuction alongside it, and at Pretty Body and Line Clinic liposuction and fat grafting are performed together in a single operation.

Second graft

A second fat grafting session is usually possible from 1–2 months after the first graft.
