Can you have a Brazilian Butt Lift a year after having abdominal Liposuction?

Q: I am 5’10 and 180lbs. I really want to have a BBL, but I had abdominal lipo a year ago. I am extremely unhappy with the lipo results because I still have a belly and I wasn’t fat to begin with. Although I’m not huge, I believe I have enough fat throughout my body to transfer to my butt. I was told I was too thin by one dr, but would like to get other opinions. Thanks!

A: It is possible to have a Brazilian Butt Lift even though you previously had liposuction, but it can be tricky. Secondary liposuction is typically more difficult than the first procedure due to scar tissue. Also, there will, of course, be less fat to harvest. Depending on the look you are trying to achieve (i.e., how big you want your butt) it may still be possible. Try getting a second opinion from someone who has performed a lot of fat grafting procedures.
