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.
Hello and Great Question. I appreciate the time you are spending researching this procedure. My name is Dr. Matthew J. Nykiel. I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellowship Trained Cosmetic Surgeon, and a Butt Augmentation Specialist.You would need to have medical clearance to assess whether or not you can safely undergo a BBL. I would recommend that you seek a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. I hope that helps! Best of Luck!Matthew J.

You would require clearance from your cardiologist or the treating doctor for your cardiac stent. If you are on a blood thinner, it is safest from a plastic surgery standpoint to stop this, to avoid excessive bleeding during the surgery and the post op period.

your cardiologist will help you decide if surgery is safe for you. However, I highly recommend that you consider a BBL from a VASER specialist which will optimize your BBL results.
I would get medical clearance to assess whether or not you can safely undergo a BBL after a stent in your coronary artery. If you are cleared, I would advise having the surgery at a hospital. You need to discuss the above with a Board Certified PS.
Thank you for your question! For my patients having a BBL, I recommend they stay off of their butt completely for the first 10 days post op, then use a BBL pillow for 3 weeks. After that, they have no more sitting restrictions and it is safe to sit on their butt. I recommend discussing specific...

Dear chewy75,After 15 days post op you should not be worried about fat survival, the good ones that will survive won't die with you falling down. I would be more worried about bruising or hematomas if your where taking blood thinner shots, if everything seems to look ok don't worry to much. Best...
Dear yitani,the cost of surgery depends on a lot of factors (type of surgery, number of treated areas, anesthesia fee, surgeon, facility fee, city, etc.). In LA area, BBL typically ranges from 8K-12K depending on how much liposuction needs to be done to get enough fat. It would be the best to ...
Thank you for your question. Typically, you can gradually ease into activities such as exercise and sexual intercourse between 2-3 weeks after a Brazilian butt lift. For a tummy tuck I would suggest waiting closer to 6 weeks. Please talk with your surgeon about their recovery protocol. Hope th...
Thank you for your question. Yes you can do both procedures in the same surgery. After a brazilian butt lift no specific position is indicated and we do not have any sitting restrictions. The pressure caused by sitting is not sufficient to affect viability of the fat cells and so the p...
