Does BBL smell?
Yes , no ?
BBL has a temporary smell post surgery. There are causes, solutions and preventive measures to help.
BBL Brazilian Butt lift is a surgical procedure done to enhance one's behind. They take fats from another part of your body and transfer it to the your buttock to make it fuller and shapy.
After BBL, you need to sleep only on your stomach or sides for several weeks and also avoid sitting directly on your butt.
Now back to the BBL smell, it is described as musty or slightly sour smell. The odor becomes prominent after sweating or sitting for longer hours. The smell is normal with BBL, however you should monitor closely for any redness, swelling, fever as these could signs of infection erupting.
The small incisions done during fats and liposuction transfer. These incisions may release fluids that can contribute to odor if not managed well. The transferred fats can release fluids that when trapped against your skin, can create a breeding ground for bacteria , thus the BBL smell.
After BBL, when you p**p or urinate, when a tiny drops on the skin, if not cleaned properly, you may develop odor.
So maintaining good hygiene, like bathing or showering with lukewarm water 💦.
Use wipes or cleansers recommended by your surgeon only during healing process.
Change your bedsheets and clothing frequently to prevent anything moisture.
Change your underwears regularly
Avoid tight clothing after your BBL to promote air circulation and to prevent irritation. Tight clothings trap sweats and can irritate the BBL incisions which can contribute to odor development.
If the BBL smell becomes overpowering, strong, persistent, followed by redness, swelling, fever 🥵, please report to your surgeon immediately.
So BBL smell is a yes, but it depends how you care for it.
Is it worth it, for me it's a no no no. There are shape wears that helps to lift up the butts if you aren't comfortable with your own.
