Liposuction is necessary for fat grafting to the buttocks

A comprehensive body liposuction procedure is necessary to obtain sufficient high-quality fat with which to graft into the buttocks. A substantial volume is needed for this procedure. Typical regions used for fat graft donor sites include the abdomen, flanks, back, arms and thighs.

Liposuction and Fat transfer cost approx. $6,000

Of course, fees vary greatly from one surgeon to the next. Our fee for Liposuction of Two Areas and Fat Transfer to the Buttocks in $6,000 (global fee including surgeon's fee, anesthesia fee, and OR fee) but I'm sure you can find cheaper and much more expensive. Our patients have the option of financing, however, it has been more difficult to get financing over the last few months. I wish you the best of luck!
