SIZING in Brazilian Butt Lifting (Fat Transfer to The Buttocks)

While SIZE consideration, PROPORTION and overall SHAPE considerations are MUCH more important in Frat Transfer Butt Augmentation (Brazilian Butt Lift). You will NOT get a beautiful butt simply from the squirting of a large volume of fat into each cheek. When analyzing any buttock for enhancement, I look at the present buttock and see what IS present, what IS MISSING and what needs to be added or improved to create the buttock that woman desires.
