Auto augmentation butt flap question. Following drastic weight loss I require a lower body lift and fat transfer to buttocks. I am also considering the butt flap. Is it a good idea to have this done? What are the advantages and disadvantages? Is a BBL usually required as well to give a fuller appearance? My weight tends to yo-yo so I was thinking the Butt flap wold be a more permanent change while the fat transfer results could change with time? Is this correct? Thank you so much!

Answer: Buttock flap auto-augmentation after massive weight loss Although there is nothing wrong with utilizing your own tissue for auto-augmentation during a lower body lift, do not expect enhancement of the entire buttocks cheek length. At best only the top third or so is augmented, leaving the rest flat and not perky. Typically patients with massive weight loss have poor fat transfer survival unless you gain weight back and keep the weight on which of course is counterproductive. Thus, your only relatively safe, reliable, predictable, and permanent option is buttock implants. Glad to help
