Is BBL only temporary?

Hello, and thank you for reaching out to us.A Brazilian butt lift performed by a board-certified plastic surgery will last you a lifetime.  There is a fat retention rate, which is the fat the survives the transfer.  This differs among surgeons, but a good range is between 60-80% survival rate.Good luck with everything, please let us know how it goes.Regards,Dr. Constantino Mendieta

Dear Beb,    Your question is a critical question . You will get different answer from different doctores in regad to fat survival. I have been doing butt implants surgery for over 11 years and operated on hundreds of patients.  I can tell you from my own observation that many patients came to my surgery center for butt implants surgery after having disappointing results from fat injection to the butt by other surgeons. What the patients are telling me is that the fat disappear completely or almost completely after 6 - 12 months. Indeed, when I operated on them I did not see any significant amount of fat left over. It is physiologically illogical to expect that a large amount of injected fat will survive without good blood supply. Think about it using you common sense, if fat injection was consistent and reliable, breast implants would have disappeared from the market , yet breast implants surgery is stronger than ever. The disappointment for the patients is both financially and emotionally for not achieving their goal. The decision is yours.        Best of luck,                              Dr Widder

Thank you for your question.  Brazilian Butt Lifts are a permanent solution to buttock flatness.  Fat is liposuctioned from undesirable locations and transferred to the buttocks for shaping, lifting and augmenting the buttocks.  Approximately 60% of the transferred fat survives and is permanent.  The results are long lasting but normal aging continues. Best wishes!
