How Soon After my First Brazilian Butt Augmentation Surgery, Can a 2nd Butt Augmentation Surgery Can Safely Be Performed?

Having a second brazilian buttock lift (fat transfer)

I would suggest waiting at least six months after your initial brazilian buttock lift before attempting to have a second procedure.

One Month After the Brazilian Butt Lift is Too Early to Tell if you want or need to do it again......

Most patients buttocks keeps shrinking for about 2 months and their waist continues to shrink for about 3 months. That is why most of my patient photos are taken at least 2 months after surgery and usually 3 or more months afterwards. Hopefully you will love your results at 3 months and not even need... more

How soon after the BBL can a second procedure be performed?

In our practice we wait at least 3 months before performing a send BBL. By this point most of the inflammation resulting from the first prodedure has subsided and a second procedure can, therefore, safely be performed.
