Q: Is 600 cc enough fat to make a difference for Brazillian Butt Lift?

Thanks for your question

600 cc of fat is typically a significant change. There are limits to the amount of fat you can transfer both in terms of fat survival as well as (especially in your case) ability to harvest enough fat.

In addition, for patients that are relatively thin, the improvement from liposuction itself (a significant part of the difference in contour) tends to be less.

I hope this helps.
