My mom got her BBL done a couple weeks ago. I want to get my BBL done on December. My mom was telling me that her surgeon told her there was a new law that BBL’s can only have 5 lbs of fat taken out and transferred.

Answer: BBL candidate Dear Stefff16, It is recommended that maximum of 5 liters of fat is liposuctions if the surgery is done in surgical centers and not in hospital. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Maximum Fat Removal Thank you for your question. The American Society of Plastic Surgery guidelines recommends only 5L of fat can be performed safely in an outpatient setting (not a hospital), though in Florida the law only allows 4L of fat to be removed in an outpatient setting. In my experience, this is more than enough fat to be removed and processed for transfer into the buttocks. In terms of safety, the fat should never be injected into the muscle and should only be transferred into the subcutaneous layer of fat. I recommend discussing it further with your plastic surgeon and he can assess you and determine what can be done to help you achieve the aesthetic results you desire.Kamran Azad MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
