Is a BBL reversible?

Question

I'm planning on having a BBL and would like to get a more bigger than natural looking butt. If I decide it's too big down the road, is this procedure reversible? In other words, am I able to get the BBl slightly reduced?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

The overall volume of the buttocks can be reduced in the future but it has to be done carefully as there can be a residual skin component.

Thank you for your question. In a Brazilian Butt Lift procedure, fat is harvested and injected into the deficient areas of the buttocks. This is done to help lift and provide a fuller look to the back side. Typically, it is not recommended to go in after having this type of procedure and removing the fat injected because you then run the risk of having hanging skin to that area&mdash;an area that was already stretched from previously being injected.

Maybe if you loose some weight, your buttock may reduce a bit considering that you got fat transfered.Dr. JPG

It may be reversible somewhat, but it also may cause drooping of the buttocks. Because the fat is injected in many layers, it can be difficult to suction out to decrease the volume.
