Can an arm fat be used for brazilian butt lift?

Question

Is it possible to liposuction the arms and transfer that fat into the buttocks for Brazilian Butt Lift?

Armando Soto, MD, FACS · Answer

Hi there-
It is possible to use fat from anywhere you may have it in excess for your Brazilian Butt Lift. I do not think I have ever met a patient who had enough fat on her arms to complete the procedure without harvesting fat from another location as well however.
The best way to assure you have maximized your chances of being happy is to find the best surgeon for you.
Here's some help finding  that person:

Thank you for your question. Definitely, yes it is possible, I would suggest to be treated by board certificated plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.
Kind Regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Fat may be taken from virtually anywhere provided you have enough fat there for the Brazilian Butt Lift.

Farbod Esmailian, MD · Answer

Yes it can be but it will not be nearly enough fat to get the results that you would like from the procedure.

	You need more fat than just the fat from your arm. The brazilian butt lift involves adding fat but it also involves plenty of liposuction of the around the gluteals to give the contour and shape that you desire.

	Good luck.

Tania Medina de Garcia, MD · Answer

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well. 
Yes, you can harvest fat from different areas of your body, including your arms. l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

Any fat can be used for gluteal augmentation.  One problem is that not all of the fat is usable.   That is why we like to get as much of it as possible.

The first part of a Brazilian Butt lift includes aggressive liposuction to multiple parts of your body. This fact has been collected, cleaned, and process and then transplanted to your butt. The manner in which it is added to your butt will add volume and give you a beautiful contour.

	In our practice, many patients request by the suction to not only the trunk by the arms, legs, and under the chin. We're happy to perform the same time. While this fact may be cleaned and processed and subsequently used but keep in mind the secret in a Brazilian Butt lift is to use as much volume as possible and this requires thorough like the suction primarily to the trunk.

Definitely. I do this all of the time. this area alone is not likely to provide enough fat to make a significant enhancement for your buttocks, but it can be added to the fat obtained from elsewhere. We can take fat from just about any area of your body that you would like to have it removed from, just like we would with normal liposuction, and use this fat to transfer to your buttocks. The only area I will not use fat from is the breast. Even though breasts are mostly made up of fat, when liposuction of the breast is performed, breast cells can be removed as well, and we don't want to transplant these to your buttocks.
