Ideal candidates are at a stable weight,  in good health , and have excess fat in some parts of the body and too little in other regions.  Gaining weight before the procedure is to no advantage and when you lose weight again the fat cells will shrink just like the donor site fat cells.  Typically, the transferred fat results in a significant increase in volume of the body site being treated.

Thank you for the question.  It is best to wait at least 6 months before you do another round of fat grafting to the buttocks.  This give the buttocks time to decrease the swelling and you can see the final fat take.  Please follow up with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon about your concerns.

You should wait at least 6 months to allow the previous surgery to heal. You must also consider whether or not you have areas that can be liposuctioned to harvest more fat. Repeat liposuction (lipo in the same areas that were used previously) does not produce great fat the second time around as there tends to be scar tissue. Make sure you go to someone who does a lot of revisions - both liposuction and BBL.
