Am I a Good Candidate for the Brazilian Butt Lift?

asked 1 year ago by Silver Spring3803 in Silver Spring, MD

Question viewed 406 times
Tags: female, love handles

I am 5'2", 130 lbs. (Fat might be extracted from my back and the roll around the waist in addition to abdomen/flanks in order to get an overall attractive appearance.) However, I am worried about my bone structure. I have a short torso and My "hip bones" are above my crotch giving the appearance of love handles and an overall square shape to my lower body, and I fear that this may not give me the attractive curve that should appear around the butt. Should I still pursue this surgery?

Candidates for buttock augmentation (Brazilian buttock lift)

Based on your photo, you appear to be a a very good candidate for fat transfer to the buttock (Brazilian buttock lift). I agree that you have a square appearance to your lower body and buttock. This will be dramatically improved by liposuction of the love handles, mid-back, lower back, plus the abdomen.  Your butttock will not only be fuller and shapelier but your overall gluteal/lower back contour will be quite attractive.  Your height and weight also make you a great... more

FAT TO THE BUTTOCKS, TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING? THE RIGHT AMOUNT?

The fat transfer to the buttocks in large amounts is referred to by the marketing term brazillian butt lift in some circles.   This is simple transfer of large amounts of fat.  Is the fat in the right place?  Possibly?  In my opinion the excessive fat transfer simply converts an athletic trim fit look to that of a person with a large , round  buttocks and an  " I have  never exercised one day in my life look."  If the buttocks... more

Volume, Volume, Volume: the more you have, the more that can be transferred. Only an examination by an experienced surgeon can tell you if you have enough fat to transfer and what the results would be.

Candidate for Brazilian Buttock Augmentation

The procedure involves harvest fat from areas of your body where there is excess fat and injecting that fat carefully into the central zone of your buttock. In addition, it involves liposculpting the buttock to facilitate a more rounded look. The common donor sites for this... more

Good candidate for the Brazilian butt lift

During a physical exam, I typically evaluate the different factors that are creating an abnormal shape of your buttocks. Certainly, having a bony structure that is abnormal will make the procedure harder. I have seen patients that have a high hip, which creates some problems when sculpting the buttock and hip areas. Now, I have performed fat transfers in some patients with an abnormal bony anatomy, and typically you need a significant amount of fat to sculpt and cover the abnormal bony... more
