Why do I see girls having multiple Brazilian butt lift surgeries, as if it's necessary?

Question

I'm ready to have a Brazilian Butt Lift, but am I going to have to do this more than once because it deflates? Pay $6,000-$10,000 twice?

Juan Carlos Fuentes, MD · Answer

The BBL gives more volume and a more round shape to the buttocks, also enhances the body contour in other areas like the abdomen and waist, and the results are very rewarding and long lasting, but if the patient loses weight, then the fat will shrink in size and that may result in a smaller size, also some patients just want to add more volume to their buttocks, and that will be a reason for patients to get another surgery. Consider that there are limitations in how big a patient can go in just one time, as the skin on the buttocks will be too tight to get more fat injected in the buttocks.

Hi and great question.I appreciate the time you are spending on educating yourself about this procedure.Whether one surgery or multiple BBL surgeries is necessary depends on your post-operative goals (how big or how much projection you want) and what you look like pre-op (if your butt is flat or has minimal curves).  Without seeing your photos it is difficult for me to tell you where you fall in that spectrum.I hope that helps.  Have a great day!

Samir Shureih, MD · Answer

The most probable reason that you are seeing many people wanting a second BBL is 1: un-realistic expectations2: poor communications and understanding of what can and can not be done and achieved.3: not understanding the limitations of fat transfer4: Rushing the decision to have the surgery to the first qualified and un-qualified person who tell you "yes you are a good candidate".
