Good candidate for the Brazilian butt lift

Just because you weigh 190 pounds doesn't necessarily mean that you are a good candidate for a Brazilian butt lift.

Are you a "Good Candidate" for Brazilian Butt Lift?

Hi Tonya Yes, from your height and weight that you have presented, you are a candidate for the procedure.

Buttock Enhancement through fat transfer

Hi there- Without more information about your health history, your goals, and a physical examination, it would be difficult to say responsibly whether you would be a good candidate or not... It sounds like you have fat available, however. Your best bet is to find a surgeon certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery who has a lot of experience with this procedure and visit for a consultation.

Candidate for brazilian butt Lift

Regarding : "I am 190 pounds and 5'5. I would like fat transfer from my belly, abdomen and waist line in to my butt. am i a candidate?"  Your questions suggests you have enough fat to transfer to the buttocks but without an examination to check your body, go over your current buttocks, motivation for the surgery etc, it is impossible to say how good of a candidate you are for this operation.
