There are good answers here as to what it is so I won't repeat them.

What you have to be aware of is that how it's done has a tremendous impact on the success or failure of the technique.

The key elements are:

1. Extraction of cells under low pressure so as to avoid damage to the cells.

2. Careful processing of fat cells to eliminate anything other than healthy fat cells. Centrifugation for 3-5 minutes followed by decanting and taking off the oil layer is the gold standard.

3. Microinjection technique to ensure rapid reestablishment of blood supply to the fat cell graft.

4. No sitting or pressure on the buttocks for over 3 weeks after, to prevent damage to the grafted cells.

A: About Brazilian Butt Lift

Daniel P. Markmann, MD

The Brazilian Butt Lift is a great procedure for women who want to improve their hip to waist ratio with enlargement of their buttocks and a reduction of their waistline. This gives more of an hourglass shape to your figure. Prior to the Brazilian Buttocks Lift, the only option for women who wanted their buttocks made larger was buttocks implants. Although the results were usually good, many women complain of their buttocks feeling hard or having an unnatural feel or appearance.

The Brazilian Buttocks Lift, on the other hand is all your own tissue, and feels and looks very natural. And since the procedure requires liposuction of the abdomen and waistline to obtain the fat to be transferred to your buttocks, there is the added benefit of a slimmer waistline and a flatter stomach at the same time, thus creating an even more dramatic effect.

But be careful! This procedure has to be done correctly for a good and long lasting result.  So, shop around.  Be sure your surgeon is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon has a lot of good long term results to show you. 

About Kim Kardashian. I couldn't tell you if she has had the procedure or not. Some people are naturally blessed with a great figure.

Good luck to you,

Dr M
