Brazilian Butt Lift Through Smart Lipo?

Both the buttock itself AND the areas surrounding the buttock are key to the appearance of a sexy butt. This recognition lends itself to combining liposuction with fat transfer to optimize the buttock shape and is the technique used in a "Brazillian Butt Lift."

Many techniques have been proposed for fat harvesting for transfer to other areas of the body, but Smart Lipo makes the least sense as it heats and destroys the fat cells. While techniques such Vaser liposuction using ultrasound have been employed for fat transfer, I believe that traditional liposuction make the most sense.

I've heard it said that "I would rather have a Smart Surgeon than Smart Lipo," and I think that applies here. The skill, judgement and experience of your surgeon is the most important factor in helping you reach your goals. 

Hope this helps

Thank you for your question. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body from different angles. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.
Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Smart lipo heats and kills fat cells. Because of this it is not a good option for a Brazilian Butt Lift as it would result in less fat survival.

Thank you for your question!  I would not reccomend smart liposuction for a BBL.  there is a chance it will melt the fat cells were trying to harvest.  Best of luck!Dr Dhaval PatelDouble Board Certified Plastic SurgeonChicagoHoffman EstatesOak Brook

You want to transfer live fat cells so any treatment that destroys cells will lessen your results. Many forms of liposuction can and do destroy cells so these should be avoided.

Smart lipo uses a laser to melt and destroy fat cells. The fat cells are so damaged that they should not be used to transfer to the buttocks because the cells will not survive the transfer. Tumescent traditional liposuction is almost always used with a Brazilian Butt Lift because this technique does not laser or heat up and melt the fat cells. The fat cells are not damaged by traditional liposuction and the "take" of the fat cell is much better. I will sometimes use Smart lipo or Vaser liposuction probes after harvesting the fat in order to heat up the collagen in the skin for more skin shrinkage in areas such as the abdomen when a woman has excess skin after having children.
