BBL after butt implants removed

Hello Lawson_SIL26 in Marietta,
Thank you for your question about the possibility of undergoing a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) after the removal of buttock implants. The feasibility of this procedure depends on several factors.
Firstly, it's crucial to have enough fat available for transfer. A successful BBL requires sufficient fat to be harvested and transferred. Secondly, the condition of the recipient area, in this case, the buttocks, is important. If there's significant scar tissue in the buttocks due to the previous implant surgery, it may affect the success of the fat transfer. However, it's encouraging to note that many BBLs performed after buttock implant removal are quite successful.
The outcome of a BBL post-implant removal largely depends on factors like the amount of available fat, the volume of fat transferred, the survival rate of the transferred fat, and the quality of the recipient's skin. These multifactorial aspects determine the overall success of a BBL in such cases.
In summary, undergoing a BBL after removing buttock implants is possible, but the specifics of your case will determine the likelihood of a successful outcome. It's important to consult with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon to assess your unique situation and provide personalized advice.
Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Thanks for your question. It is difficult to provide a proper evaluation without pictures. That said, I have performed implant removal with fat transfer with successful results. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure the surgeon you choose has extensive experience with this procedure. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Dear Lawson_sil26,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, it is possible to get far transfer after removal of butt implants. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello @Lawson_sil26, thank you for your question. This really depends the specialist performing surgery. For my patients, I advice them to wait 3 to 4 months to have a gluteal lipo molding procedure after implant removal to obtain the most succesfully results. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes!
