Therefore, it is recommended to safely lie down after 7-10 days post-surgery. If you have to sit for an extended period, it is advisable to periodically get up and move around. Initially, sitting may be uncomfortable, so using a soft cushion for support can be helpful.

A. The number of threads used in a hip lift can vary depending on the size of the buttocks, the degree of tissue sagging, and the desired shape of the hip line. It can range from around 10 threads to 50 or more. It is best to consult with the doctor to determine the appropriate number.

It is important to take prescribed medication to reduce swelling and prevent inflammation. Alcohol and smoking should be avoided for one month after surgery as they can have negative effects on bleeding, infection, and wound healing. Strenuous exercise and weight loss should be avoided for approximately two months. However, light stretching and walking can aid in reducing swelling.
