Do I have enough fat to achieve desired results from a Brazilian butt lift? (photos)

Question

I will be 40 years old this year. I have four kids and after having my last child last year and going through a lot of stress I have lost weight and I want to enhance the shape of my butt I am normally around 135 lbs but currently 125 5’7’’. Do I have enough fat to transfer to really see some results of a lifted shapely butt. Thank you.

Thank you for your question in regards to a Brazilian butt lift. Having enough fat to transfer is depending on what your desired appearance is. You appear to be a good canidate for the procedure. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a full and complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have surgery. I hope this helps.

Dear Thoughtful11511,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good BBL candidate. The BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. This helps contour your waist and give you an hourglass figure, and the transferred fat will add projection to your buttocks. In addition, if you do not have enough fat in these areas, liposuction can be performed in many other areas of the body for fat transfer to the buttocks, such as the upper arms and chin. Depending on your desired results, you may be asked to gain some weight. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive experience with BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

You are an excellent candidate for abdominoplasty and liposuction with fat placement in the buttocks. if you won't get pregnant again. you can get excellent results and get the buttocks you want. I recommend a tummy tuck for the flaccidity that you present.
