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
