Gaining Weight Before Brazilian Butt Lift

This is a very
common question as some women do not have enough fat for a Brazilian Butt
Lift. However some patients are
surprised that they have enough fat when evaluated by an experienced plastic
surgeon that performs a high volume of fat transfer procedures.

Patients that have
a BMI over 22 and have never had liposuction before have a good possibility of
being able to have a Brazilian Butt Lift.
They will need a liposuction in multiple areas such as the flanks, back abdomen
and inner thighs. However this
liposuction in multiple areas will allow your surgeon to shape your entire
body.

I tell patients
who are thin or borderline that I am always cautious about having them gain
weight because if they lose weight after the fat transfer procedure they will
lose some of the fat that is transferred during the Brazilian Butt Lift.

If you are too
thin for a Brazilian Butt Lift there are other options such as butt implants or
a combination of butt implants and fat transfer. The combination is great for shaping the
waist and giving patients the projection and shape that they desire.

Please consult
with your board certified plastic surgeon that performs a high volume of butt
augmentation procedures.

Thank you for your question. It is hard to provided with a valid medical opinion without photos.  I would suggest to be treated by board certificated plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

A good candidate has enough fat available for transfer in the procedure. The amount of fat that can be transferred in a BBL depends on how much fat the patient has to harvest and the amount of space there is to move the fat into. It is recommended for the patient to have a BMI of 30 or less. If you are too thin, a Brazilian Butt Lift may not be possible.
