I had my BBL yesterday. My doctor took out two liters of fat but oils only transfer 400ccs to each butt cheek. He said my skin wouldn’t stretch any further. I’m 5’4, 130 pounds and very small framed. Will 400ccs be enough to even notice??i spent almost 14k and I am so sad that it may have been for nothing
Answer: Will a BBL with 400cc’s be noticeable? My philosophy is to place as much fat as possible without causing fat necrosis or undue pressure. I always anticipate that only 50% will survive, but frequently more does survive. You may not see much of a difference with only 400cc. Even on a thin patient, I can usually get an average of 800 cc of fat per buttock. There are certain limiting anatomic factors, but the surgical technique affects the outcome.

Answer: Results Thank you for your question.I think based on your frame, it will be a good result. It is hard to determine without seeing photos though. In some cases when the skin will only stretch so far, it does limit the amount that can be injected in that area. Follow your post-op care and give it time. Good luck with healing.

Answer: Will a BBL with 400cc’s be noticeable tobesimon Hi there , Thank you for your Question .There answer will depends on the patient and what she really wants , if you want a much much bigger buttocks a 400 cc will not do , you have to remember, that on most patients 50 % of fat transfer will survive post op , so in this case it all depends on how would you like to look or what you search or desire . for a must complete evaluation you can send us pictures and more information , for a virtual evaluation . Many surgeons, including myself, offer online virtual consultations where you send us your photos and we can estimate the cost. I, like many surgeons, also offer free consultations so that you can be examined and given the most accurate quote. Choose a board certified plastic surgeon who has done a ton of Brazilian Butt Lifts and has privileges to do this surgery at a local university hospital. This says his credentials have been checked out by fellow Drs. All surgeries carry risk, talk to your plastic surgeon and choose one wisely.

Answer: Dissatisfaction one day after BBL Hi and welcome to our forum! Congratulations on your recent surgery. During the procedure of BBL, fat is harvested from areas of excess and transplanted to the buttocks. One knows when maximum volume is reached when the injected fatty tissue literally "squirts" out of the incisions as the buttocks cannot accommodate any more transplanted tissue. 400 cc in a small framed individual will definitely be noticed! Continue followup with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes...
