I am 70 years old in good shape. Am I a candidate for a Brazilian But lift?

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well. 
Unfortunately, without the right pictures, it is very difficult to give you a proper answer. 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 :)

The issue may be more with the quality of your skin than your overall health. The elasticity of a 70 year old patient may not be ideal and therefore the outcome from the liposuction may not be optimal. Consult with a few surgeons in person and also consult with your primary care physician to see if you are medically cleared for this.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Age is not the end all be all when it comes to being a candidate for surgery. You can be on the older side (60-70) and still be in good health if you are exercising multiple times a week and getting your heart rate up. On the other hand, you can be 40 years old but have multiple comorbidities like high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, smoking, no exercise, that make you a bad candidate for surgery. A BBL takes more of a toll on the body than say, a breast augmentation, because you are liposuctioning a lot of fat and there are more fluid and blood pressure shifts. You may not be able to take as much fat off someone older in a safe manner. I get medical clearance on all my patients and would certainly need it in someone over 60 as well. So I would say there is a chance but we have to make sure your health is good and your body is a good candidate as well.Good luck with your journey and cute dog!

Thank you for your question. There is not a specific age, but first, for safety reasons, to be a good candidate for the procedures you want at the same time, your labs and  cardiovascular preoperative evaluation must be optimal.
Kind Regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Your age by itself will not prevent you from having a BBL  or achieving lasting results.  Your general health, genetics, exercise habits, dietary habits, weight, and other factors must be considered.  Most plastic surgeons prefer that the BMI be near 30 and a stable weight maintained for several months prior to the surgery to lower the risks of complications during and after surgery and to provide maximum results.              
Liposuction will remove the excess fat on your sides, abdomen, and back and make the waist as small as possible. The fat harvested can be transferred to the buttocks to improve roundness and projection as well as hourglass shape. 

Thank you for the question. There is no real age cut-off for cosmetic surgery. What matters more than your chronological age is your physiological age. Fitness for surgery is based on many factors including patient's overall health and fitness, medical history and BMI among others. I would seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation and advice.

Dear Ivy D.,
as long as you are healthy or your medical conditions are well controlled, you can be a candidate for a surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Good morning, thanks for the question. Age is not a factor to limit a person to surgery, but their comorbidities or pre-operative exams, so their age alone will not prevent them from having a BBL or achieving lasting results. Your general health, genetics, exercise habits, eating habits, weight and other factors must be considered.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
There is no age limit for plastic surgery, it all depends on your current health condition and your lab tests.  
In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 33 or less.
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 :)

It is hard to answer your question without better pictures or an in person consultation. If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
