A: Tummy Tuck with Brazilian Butt Lift

Farbod Esmailian, MD

It is sometimes a benefit to have a tummy tuck along with the brazilian butt lift.  I these cases a lot more fat can be removed because the area where the tummy tuck is to be performed can be liposuctioned aggressively since the skin would be removed and there is no concern for skin dimpling. So the... more

Anthony C. Griffin, MD

I am the originator of this procedure, I can tell you that for most patients, it is perfectly safe to combine this surgery, with a tummy tuck at the same time.  In fact, this is easily the number 1 combination of procedures in my office. We have been able to achieve fantastic results for our patients and... more

A: This is possible

Kamran Khoobehi, MD

Brazillian butt lift will need liposuction and fat harvesting. The only cocern is the amount of fat you have. If you have fair amonut of fat aound the waist line, you can get lipo,fat grafting in prone postion and then repostion to supine position and do tumy tuck. This may be bit too much surgery for some... more

Yes - it COULD - but I would not recommend it. If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt lift, your surgeon would need to liposuction fat from elsewhere for grafting to your buttocks. The commonest area for getting the fat would be your tummy. So the operation would start with you on your back having... more

Combining a brazilian butt lift with other procedures is possible.  Howver, due to positioning issues, it may affect the results.  You may want to combine liposuction with the Butt lift and stage the tummy tuck.

A: Combination is possible in a healthy patient

Hisham Seify, MD, PhD

In a healthy patient a tummy tuck could be combined with fat transfer to the buttocks (Brazilian lift). You have to remember that if a tummy tuck was performed as a first stage, a large amount of fat will be removed and it will be not be available for later use. Hope that helps!

A: Brazilian Butt Lift with other procedures-a good idea

John P. Stratis, MD

It is a great idea to do lower body contouring front and back with a butt lift and tummy tuck and/or liposuctioning. It ends up giving a more comprehensive result than just doing one area. It is surprising to see the changes that occur all the way around the lower body with these procedures.

A: Combining Brazilian Butt Lift with Tummy Tuck or Liposuction

Armando Soto, MD

Hi there-   Liposuction is, in fact, a critical component of the Brazilian Butt Lift technique, in which fat is removed from areas where it is not complementary to the patient's figure, and grafted into the buttock area for an improved shape.   I am of the opinion that combining a tummy tuck with... more

But I am in 100% agreement that laying on the new fat grafts (which you will need to do after tummy tuck) may cause some loss of volume or shape. I have done a number of combined cases and suspect this may have been a problem a few times.

A: Brazilian Butt Lift

David Shafer, MD

 Yes, in the appropriate patient, both the Brazilian Butt Lift and Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) can be combined.  If you post pictures, we may be able to give you more specific advice.  If you separate the procedures, I would recommend doing the tummy tuck first and then have the Brazilian Butt... more
