The BrazilianButt Lift (fat transfer) has become so popular because it not only enhances thebuttock; it improves the overall shape of the patient. The liposculpting(harvesting of fat) is just as important as the fat transfer, as the overallgoal of the Brazilian Butt Lift is to improve the entire shape of a person. The mostcommon areas that patients have liposuction performed on when having aBrazilian Butt Lift are abdomen, flanks and back. The areas are liposuctioned in most patientsas this is where the waist is sculpted to transform them from square to more ofan hourglass shape. Other areas such asinner and outer thighs can be included as well if more fat is needed or it willimprove the overall shape of the patient. The beauty ofthe Brazilian Butt Lift is that it can be tailored to each individual patientto help them achieve the aesthetic result that they desire. The liposuction isperformed to both shape the patient and to harvest fat for the buttaugmentation. The fat can then be usedto sculpt your buttock and hips. Pleasediscuss your Brazilian Butt Lift (fat transfer) procedure with your boardcertified plastic surgeon that performs a high volume of butt augmentation procedures.
The commonest sites for harvesting fat are the flanks (love handles) & the abdomen as contouring these two areas enhances the overall outcome of the surgery & achieves more complete body contouring. The other areas for fat harvest are the bra rolls, thighs, arms, any other site where fat can be removed from without overdoing it.
Fat can be taken from many different areas including abdomen, sides, back, bra rolls, thighs, arms, underarms, etc.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA
Hi Asia, thank you for the question... this will depend on the donor sites that the patient have, generally the fat is harvested from the back, flanks, abdomen and inner thighs.
This is a hard question to answer because every patient is different and is concerned with different areas of their body. The age of the patient plays a big role and the areas of concern. Younger patients are interested on their waist and abdomen while older patients are more concerned with their lower and upper back, inner thighs, and flanks.
Hi Asia,A BBL involves liposuctioning areas of your body with excess fat and transferring the fat to your buttock to increase the volume and projection. It also involves liposuctioning the lower back and surrounding buttock areas to really contour the shape of the buttock which also gives its it the appearance of being larger and more defined.Fat is usually taken from the abdomen and flanks. Depending on your particular shape and contour desires fat sometimes is also taken from the back, legs and even the arms. The only way to determine exactly which areas you would require to get your desired BBL results would be with an in-person examination with a plastic surgeon.Best of Luck!Dr. Rednam
Fat can be harvested from many different locations for a Brazilian Butt Lift procedure. It all depends on how much fat is located where. It also depends on the individual and their genetics. Some patients only accumulate fat on their abdomen & flanks. Other patients accumulate fat all over, but in much smaller quantities, so on those type patients, I have to harvest the fat from multiple locations. Be sure to consult about your BBL procedure with a board certified plastic surgeon. At your consultation, they will be able to tell you what areas of your body are good candidates for the surgeon to take the fat from.
Hello dear!Thanks for the question and provided information as well.Fat can be harvested from many areas: arms, chin, abdomen, back, flanks, thighs, etc.In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 30 or less.l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.Good luck :)
Excellent question. Without photographs it is very difficult to comment on where the fat would be harvested in your case. Common locations include the abdomen, flanks, and back. Liposuction in these areas helps improve the overall contour of the buttock region while the fat harvested improves the projection directly.All the best!
Commonly fat is removed from he abdomen and waist, but certainly it can be taken from other areas as well.
