Will Coolsculpting interfere with a Brazilian Butt Lift in the future? (photo)

Question

I want to get a BBL eventually.. but I would like to do the Cool-sculpting first just get a lil-tiny-tiny pouch in my lower stomach. Would that interfere with my BBL later on? would it kill all my fat cells & at the time of BBL to the point were there wont be enough fat to remove later? I plan on a BBL once I gain the weight for it. I am 5'3 & weight 115 at the moment, I'm trying to gain at least 20 pounds for a BBL but in the meantime I would like to the Coolsculpt treatment. Is this possible?

I would just prepare yourself for the BBL.  Find
 a BBL expert who
 performs hundreds of BBLs each year and has great reviews and great 
before and after pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

I would rethink your treatment plan.  Explore the BBL first.   Coolsculpting with reduce fat that may be needed for your BBL procedure.

The
"Brazilian" Butt Lift is a combination of tumescent liposuction
achieving sculpturing or contouring of the trunk to minimize the thickness of
the waist and tummy and fat grafting the buttocks. It also reduces the back rolls to frame the buttock. The
harvested fat is cleansed and replaced into the buttock to augment and contour
the shape you desire.CoolSculpting uses and non-surgical fat freezing technique to reduce the thickness of a very small area of a fatty skin roll. CoolSculpted areas will diminish the amount of fat useful for a future harvesting to use in your Brazillian Buttock fat grafting technique. Based on the photo you have graciously posted, it is hard to offer you the desires you have described. Please consider how much fat can be harvested, the scars involved and and anticipate current fat survival is 30-50%.   You appear to have a beautiful contour and I recommend you obtain a caring, well experienced and Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in consultation. All the best!
