What should I do for Brazilian butt lift reabsorption concern?

Fat resorption is a very complex process that is determined by many factors - surgeon factors and patient factors. In terms of surgeon factors, we use special published techniques to preserve the fat (low suction pressures, no spinning, a closed system, well hydrated fat, multiple plane micro-grafting techniques etc).  Our labor intensive technique is very impressive, but it works well for us. Our results validates the efforts. Patient factors includes the quality of the fat, and patient instructions.  My patients are asked not to sit for two weeks or longer to avoid pressure on the fat grafts. The fat also needs a good vascular bed to heal. A healthy patient who is well hydrated and with good blood flow to the buttocks area will get the best result.

If you and your doctor have done everything possible to optimize the outcome of the fat grafting. It is not unusual to undergo additional fat grafting if desired. Many of our patients do not require additional fat grafting. The best thing is to work with your Plastic Surgeon.

There are several issues that effect the decision on the amount of fat to be transferred which include: amount of donor fat, quality of donor fat, method of fat transfer, skin laxity at the recipient site, desired augmentation volume, etc. However, to answer your question, we do generally overfill to the maximum amount the skin an buttock will tolerate.
