Great Question - Mild discomfort in the abdomen and buttock is normal; however, if major discomfort is experienced in either of or other regions of the body, following the surgery, than it is important to consult the doctor.Infection is a risk, but very few cases turn up with infection.Fat reabsorption is a possibility. Fat reabsorption, in the case of a Brazilian Butt Lift, is when the buttock absorbs the injected fat more than intended. The result is typically anywhere from 65 to 85 percent of the volume transferred during surgery.There is, also, the risk the results desired are not achieved. This is particularly true of patients with unrealistic expectations. It is also true of patients not already living a healthy lifestyle. The doctor, in such cases, will work with the patient to achieve acceptable results. The worst complications include medical risks such as organ injury, blood clots in legs which travel to the lungs, fat entering the bloodstream and traveling to the lungs, and even death.During your consultation your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon should go over the complications and risks with you. - Best Wishes
It is not a high risk procedure, but most important, please make sure your surgeon is a board certified plastic surgeon.Any surgery has inherent risks i.e. infection, bleeding, unsatisfactory result, etc. It is important that you discuss the possible risks with your plastic surgeon before any procedure. Also, there are risks associated with anesthesia as well, and you should inquire about these risks as well. If you have any questions , you can check the website for the American Society of Plastic Surgery.
I think that BBL is a very safe procedure, but all surgery has certain inherent risks and your overall health definitely impacts yoru risks.
As long as your surgeon is experienced, has not had major complications, and you are generally healthy and a good candidate, BBL is not a "high risk" procedure. Of course with any surgery there are risks that your surgeon needs to make you aware of.Paul Wigoda MDdrwigoda.com
Thank you for your inquiry.This is a great question, the BBL procedure itself is not considered a high-risk one ONLY if you go to a skilled board certified plastic surgeon. I have performed 1000's of BBL's and I even trained in Brazil to perfect my craft. When i perform a BBL, after liposuction has been performed, a closed sterile system is used which ensures the fat tissue is never exposed to the air. This keeps it safe and purified for reinjection into the buttocks/hips. I use P188, a triple-wash antibiotic that sterilizes the tissue and separates the healthy fat from any tissue that may not survive the transfer process. Then i reinstate the fat little by little to make sure that the layering is done properly, effectively and that the results are smooth and shapely.Good luck on your endeavors!Dr James Fernau
Liposuction deformities can occur after overzealous liposuction. This is particularly true in post-pregnancy abdomen where there is superimposed skin and the surgeon is going for broke to get fat for grafting. I see this all the time in my office when I see patients who have had BBLs el...
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is simply the AUGMENTATION (not lifting) of the buttocks with fat after the butt and its surroundings were shaped with Liposuction. The idea is NOT to simply pump fat into a smaller unattractive butt and transform it into a much larger uglier butt but to create a more...
Thank you for your inquiry.This is a good question, we recommend not having any jewellery, make-up or acyril nails/nail polish for sanitary reasons and so it doesnt interfere with blood oxygen content sensors. Nails, especially long ones can harbor lots of bacteria and you want to be as sterile ...
