Can Brazilian Butt Lift Be Combined with Tummy Tuck or Lipo?

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 this technique is not in your best interests (although it may be in the surgeon's) for the following reasons: in order to get the very best outcome from Brazilian Butt Lift surgery, we need to... 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 your tummy fat being suctioned and then processed for loading into small syringes. A tummy tuck at this time would not be safe since the blood supply to the tummy skin could be seriously... 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.

I don't recommend doing a brazilian butt lift and a tummy tuck at the same time. The Brazilian butt lift should be done first and then after 6 months you can have the tummy tuck if necessary In my practice, I perform butt reshaping very frequently. To answer your question in regard to having multiple procedures done at the same time, including a tummy tuck, you have to understand what involves the postoperative recovery of the fat transfer procedure to the buttock area and what the... more

  In our practice we only ask that we can do a tiny type at the same time as a Brazilian Butt lift. Although it is possible, patients may receive better results if these procedures are done separately. In a staged procedure, the first step is to perform a Brazilian Butt lift. During this stage we will perform aggressive lack of suction of the abdomen hips and waist. After this liposuction the patient may have loose skin in these areas. The patient is reassured that this skin... more

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 procedure would go with liposuction of the abdomen and hips while on your back. You would be turned to do more sculpting and liposuction with the fat grafting to the gluteals. You would be... more

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 have never compromised a patient's safety. The health and overall wellness of our patients has always, and will always remain our first concern.

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 surgeons and patients. The safety of the patient is the most important factor.

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.

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!

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.

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 Lift. Good luck.

Yes liposuciton is an essential part of the Brazilian Butt Lift The choice to perform a simultaneous tummy tuck is controversial is due to the concerns with post-operative positioning. However, this is carried out on a somewhat routine basis by many surgeons. http://www.bodysculptor.com/blog.html
