Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Alexander Zuriarrain

Sourced directly from Dr. Alexander Zuriarrain's social posts and replies.

What are Dr. Zuriarrain's recommendations for BBL recovery?
Following a BBL, Dr. Zuriarrain recommends avoiding sitting directly on your buttocks, wearing your compression garment as much as possible, and getting a minimum of 15 lymphatic massages. He also provides a special BBL pillow for use after surgery.
What is the recommended exercise timeline after liposuction?
Dr. Zuriarrain advises patients to wait at least a month after liposuction before resuming exercise. He also emphasizes the importance of continuing to exercise to maintain the best BBL results.
What technologies does Dr. Zuriarrain use during buttock reduction?
During buttock reduction, Dr. Zuriarrain incorporates J-Plasma, a skin-tightening radiofrequency technology, and Avelli, an FDA-approved cellulite treatment system for areas of cellulite or dimpling.
Is it necessary to 'feed the fat' after a BBL?
Dr. Zuriarrain states that it is not true that you have to 'feed the fat' after a BBL. What you eat will not necessarily affect fat survival. Patients should focus on a healthy diet that is low in carbohydrates, high in protein, low in salt, and low in sugar, and avoid overeating or thinking a certain diet will help with fat grafting survival.
How does Prevena therapy aid in healing?
Prevena Therapy uses negative pressure to protect your incision. It works like a wound vacuum to promote healing and prevent complications. Dr. Zuriarrain considers it a game changer and uses it for procedures like arm lifts. The Prevena wound VAC is applied after the incision is sutured and closed, and before the patient wakes up from anesthesia.
Does Dr. Zuriarrain recommend buttock implants?
Dr. Zuriarrain does not recommend using implants in the buttock for better shape or volume, as they can cause discomfort and pain. He recommends liposuction with fat transfer done safely using ultrasound guidance as an alternative.
How often should implants be replaced?
Dr. Zuriarrain recommends changing implants every 10 years to avoid potential issues. Keeping them in for extended periods, such as 21 years, can lead to complications like material growing inside the implant.
What is Dr. Zuriarrain's approach to hand rejuvenation with fat grafting?
Dr. Zuriarrain performs fat grafting with the LipoCube device to rejuvenate hands. The goal is to smooth the hand's appearance and reduce the visible signs of aging. He makes an insertion with a needle between the knuckles and is careful about where the fat is injected, using a smooth motion to avoid important structures.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$139

Payments

2

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Alexander Zuriarrain received $139 across 2 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
