Brazilian Butt lift for an MTF transgender patient? (Photo)

The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)can also be performed on MTF (male-to-female) transgender individuals to enhance the curves and achieve a more feminine figure.

Based on your height and weight, a BBL could potentially be an option for you. However, a comprehensive evaluation is necessary to determine your candidacy for the procedure. During the consultation, the surgeon will assess your overall health, body proportions, and specific aesthetic goals to determine if a BBL is appropriate for you. Keep in mind that personalized advice from a qualified surgeon is essential for making informed decisions about any surgical procedure.

It's important to note that silicone injections for body contouring are not recommended and can pose serious health risks. Unregulated and non-medical silicone injections can lead to complications such as infection, migration of silicone to other parts of the body, scarring, and even life-threatening conditions.

With the shape that you have, you are a good candidate for BBL. From the picture, it depends on how large you want your butt to be. If you want it to be significant, fat injection would not be enough; you may need buttock implants with fat injection, but your fat will be enough to get a nice curve if the size is not the issue.
