Brazilian butt lift fat necrosis

Aspirating fat will depend on the type of hard lump you have developed. Fat necrosis is caused mainly by a large amount of fat injected into one specific area. This fat will certainly die and create a mass of dead tissue that can be painful. When fat is injected in the buttocks, it needs to be done in multiple passes. This gives the best chance for the fat to survive. Now, the hard lump is not necessarily fat necrosis (dead fat); it can be fat that creates an internal scar,... more

Cysts can aspirated

Fat necrosis

If these are oil cysts then they can be aspirated even liposuctioned. Depending how big they are, it may leave a dent. If they are truely Fat Necrosis, proven by MRI or X-Ray, they may be disolved by using Ultrsound Liposuction. , again that may leave a dent or depression. There are no medications that can be injected, Mesotherapy will claim to disolve fat, however it does not work.
