After a fat transfer procedure up to 25% of the transferred fat may not survive. After this initial period, the rest of the fat is permanent. Our fat cells have an amazing capacity to expand and contract depending on our weight, so as long as you maintain your post operative weight, your results will last. If you lose weight, the transferred fat will shrink along with the rest of the fat on your body. If you gain weight, the transferred fat will expand. One of the additional benefits of the Brazilian Butt Lift is midsection shaping. Even if you do lose a little weight, you will likely still look great because the donor areas (like your tummy, love handles and/or lower back) will still be smaller and your butt more shapely.

Working a desk job and having a bbl. Will it damage the results?

Working a desk job and having a bbl. Will it damage the results?

Q: When getting a Brazilian Butt Lift and having a job where you sit all day at a desk. Will this damn the fat long term? I know you have to take off between 10-14 days. But when returning back to work what is highly recommended?

A: I perform a lot of Brazilian Butt Lifts each week in my Atlanta area surgery center. Many of my patients need to get back to their desk jobs a few weeks after surgery. I recommend they sit on a nursing pillow when they return to work. This allows them to sit comfortably at their desks while avoiding putting pressure on their new backsides!

Do I have enough fat for a bbl that will be long lasting?

Do I have enough fat for a bbl that will be long lasting?

Q: I would like a hourglass shape with a big booty. Do I have enough fat or would I be wasting my money?

A: Thank you for your question. It is difficult to answer your question fully because your pictures are from the waist up only. I can’t fully see your fat stores and your butt is not in the picture at all. I can’t see what you are starting with and I don’t know what look you wish to achieve. I perform several Brazilian Butt lifts each week in my Atlanta area surgery center. In general, the key to long lasting results from fat transfer to the butt is to maintain your preoperative weight. I can’t stress that enough. Some fat will not survive the transfer process. It’s difficult to predict exactly how much, but I estimate 70-80% of the transferred fat survives the surgery. Once the harvested fat is transferred to your butt, it behaves just like the fat everywhere else on your body – it grows and shrinks with fluctuations in your weight. I always like to remind my patients that there is an additional benefit to the Brazilian Butt Lift – it reshapes your entire midsection with liposuction. Even if you do lose a little weight, your new shape with a flatter abdomen and smaller waist is maintained. That’s why it is one of my favorite procedures!

Well I want liposuction and I was wondering if when they take my belly fat if they could pass it to my butt?

Q: Well I want liposuction and I was wondering if when they take my belly fat if they could pass it to my butt?

A: The procedure you are describing is called a Brazilian Butt Lift. I perform this several times each week in my Atlanta area surgery center. I use liposuction to remove fat from the midsection of the body – usually abdomen, flanks and lower back – and then inject this fat into the buttocks and/or hips to achieve fullness. The result is an hourglass shape with a flat tummy.

Is there a non surgical method like injections to give me a butt?

Is there a non surgical method like injections to give me a butt?

Q: Hi, I have done squats forever and my butt has not bulged,still flat as a board.

A: While I understand the temptation to look to alternative methods to create a shapely backside, please avoid butt injections. These “procedures” are NOT performed by board certified plastic surgeons – in many cases they are not performed by doctors at all. There is no telling what is being injected into your body. Some of the saddest patients I have seen in my office in recent years have undergone these injections with disastrous results. The areas frequently become infected which often results in hospitalization and sometimes more surgery and even death. I have seen women lose limbs because the injected material clogs blood vessels. This is not a safe way to enhance your figure.

The Brazilian Butt Lift is my favorite way to create curves in the lower body. During this operation, I use liposuction to harvest fat and to flatten the tummy and whittle the waist. I then transfer your own fat in a sterile fashion to your buttocks and/or hips to fill them out. Good candidates are in good health and close to their ideal weight with some fat stores on their bodies. The other option to consider is buttock implants. Implants are made of solid silicone and can be placed in the butt to create fullness. I have posted a link to my before and after picture gallery. If you decide this is the surgery for you, make sure to choose a board certified plastic surgeon with a lot of experience in the procedure.
