Brazilian Butt Lift: Q&A

Any Thoughts on Posting LONG TERM BBL Result Photos?

Why don't most Doctors who perform Brazilian Butt LiIft Show their LONG TERM results? Everyone's behind looks big and round at one or two weeks post op! It is ,rare for a Brazilian Butt Lift patient to post photos of their finql results. I feel that crowing about results that are only a few days or weeks old is counterproductive. It gives prospective patients who do not thoroughly undersrand the procedure a false sense of what final results may really look like . Do you agree?

The good news, though, is that if the buttocks appear satisfactory at about 3 months there is an excellent chance that they will remain so.
