Will a Brazilian Butt Lift be successful for a bodybuilder?

As a bodybuilder, I tend to get some patients in fitness and similar pursuits.  Muscle will not prevent a good result.I would select a plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of BBLs each
year, has good reviews, and has good before and after pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Great question. The increased muscle mass is actually very helpful. The muscle is good site for fat survivability as the blood flow is excellent. If you have enough fat to transfer you will do well. If not, you would need an implant. An in person consultation would be extremely helpful.Best

Thank you for your question, muscle mass in not a impediment for a Brazilian butt lift, however for us to perform a procedure like this we do need certain amount of fat for us to transfer into the buttocks. I believe a in person evaluation will be needed, for us to know if you have enough fat for the procedure since bodybuilders have such low fat percentages in their body's.

If you are a bodybuilder with a lot of muscle mass, that does not necessarily preclude you from undergoing a Brazilian butt lift. It is however, required for a patient to have a sufficient amount of fat available to be harvested and injected into the buttocks.  It is best to consult in person, so that the doctor can see up close with what he/she has to work with.  As always, it is recommended that patients do their research and find a surgeon who is highly experienced in performing Brazilian butt lifts.
