If you have sciatic nerve damage, can you get lipo and BBL?

Question

Arian Mowlavi, MD, FACS (license on probation) · Answer

Sciatic nerve injuries are a thing of the past with newer BBL techniques that do not inject the fat intra-muscularly. And any damage you may have does not impact your candidacy for lipo and BBL.If you are a candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or Facetime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

you can get a BBL if you have sciatic nerve damage.  The procedure could potentially aggravate the injury but it would most likely not do so. Understanding the ideology in the exact anatomy would be helpful to make a definite decision. Most people with sciatica nerve pain have my root compression as the primary ideology.  Your question is too vague to give an accurate answer to. Best, Mats Hagstrom M.D.
