Risks Associated With Brazilian Buttock Augmentation
These procedures are fortunately very safe. But as you know, everything in medicine and surgery has some risks. The risks are very similar to any liposuction procedure: fluid collection (seroma)/bleeding, infection, contour irregularlities, pain/numbess, and need for revision surgery. In addition, I would add fat necrosis (hardening of small pocket of fat), fat cysts, and failure to achieve the desired volume (due to resorption of the fat injected). Additional fat micrografting...

Safety of Brazilian Butt Lift
A brazilian butt lift involves fat inijection and liposuction and the risks are the same for a patient considering liposuction alone. There are risks of anesthesia or very rarely infection. Generally, a brazilian butt lift is routinely performed safely with no complications. The anesthetic risk is extremely small in a healthy patient.

Brazilian Butt lift is very safe when done right
There are very specific technical procedures to follow to get a safe and effective result.
The link below details the prerequisites for adequate harvesting processing and delivery of fat grafts.
The video illustrates some of these principles.
Using these techniques in well over 100 cases we have only had a minor infection that did not affect the final result of the butt lift, and that was 3 years ago. We are extremely safe, and very effective.

Safety of Brazilian Butt Lift
This procedure, like any, has risks that your doctor will discuss with you. However, this procedure is considered a lower risk procedure and is a very well tolerated. The most important aspect is that the fat is injected in small amounts, evenly distributed, and that a smooth contour is obtained.

It is as safe as most surgeries.
A brazilian butt lift is very similar to an extensive liposuction procedure. However, during this procedure, the aspirated fatty tissue is re-injected into the buttocks in order to reshape and give more volume. There are risks to any surgery and this is no more dangerous than other surgeries like a tummy tuck. Patient's do need some excess fat in order to provide enough volume for their new fuller buttocks. So, if you have a little extra "pooch" in front, this will actually be...
