I had lipo today only to one area abdomen minimal fat collected total of 100cc, I asked my doctor to transfer if there was a good amount. Woke up and didn't have any transfer to buttocks could it be that it wasn't enough? Maybe draining the fluid from the lipo canister would have been a total of 50cc? With rarely any results?

Answer: Not enough fat to transfer Thanks for the great question and congratulations on your surgery! You're exactly correct that there was not enough fat to transfer. If there was 100cc in the canister, maybe 50cc of that could be used. Of the 50cc only 50-75% would survive. This only lease you with about 20cc of fat to transfer into each buttock. Common amounts for Brazilian butt lifts are anywhere from 400-2000cc of fat to each buttock. I hope you like the results from your liposuction and best of luck!~Dr. Sieber
