Hello, My bbl was beautiful for the first 3 months then went flat at about month 5 or 6. Why?
Answer: My BBL has gone flat after 6 months. Why? (Photo) The results immediately following surgery will be the largest due to swelling and lack of fat resorption. This will be dependent to some extent on surgical technique and the result the surgeon typically generates. After the initial resorption phase, the fat obtains its blood supply and is living tissue. In my experience, the volume of the buttocks that is present at 4 to 6 weeks is the volume that stays. About 50% of the fat injected obtains permanence. The fat transfer produces long-lasting results if your weight remains stable.

Answer: My BBL has gone flat after 6 months. Why? without in person or even virtual consult with having many questions very hard to give reasons for loss of BBL volume. Possible reasons: poor fat types was injected in either very diluted solution; use of over hydrated fat; use of non fat products ie HA fillers. Best to obtain in person or virtual second opinions. My guess is you need round 2 surgical BBL c large amounts of non surgical injections of Sculptra/Radeisse. This is my "COMPOSITE BBL" option. Fees fro $15,000.

Answer: BBL Revision Unfortunately volume loss following a BBL is common. This is a result of the fat cells dying, which 3-4 months after your operation, can result in up to 60% volume loss. The optimal BBL 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.
