Is it possible to get the same amount/type of liposuction without fat transfer, as it is when getting a BBL? I'm happy wih the size of my butt and just want liposuction on stomach, back and thighs (maybe) to accentuate the shape of the butt.
Answer: Liposuction for Body Contouring Liposuction is an excellent procedure for body contouring. The fat that is removed does not have to be transferred to the buttocks unless you want your buttocks larger. Obtain a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who will discuss the various types of liposuction and suggest which type is best for you.

Answer: Liposuction Without Fat Transfer? Liposuction Alone Can Sculpt the Body As long as you don’t want to add volume, liposuction alone without fat transfer is enough to contour the body. In fact, most liposuction procedures are done simply to remove fat, not to add it elsewhere. Liposuction could remove excess fat on your abdomen, back and thighs, if needed. You may also want to consider noninvasive fat-elimination techniques, such as Vanquish, CoolSculpting and ThermiTight. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist who will take the time to evaluate your figure and help you choose the best options.

Answer: Liposuction without fat transfer--VASER HI DEF 4D Liposculpture, ThermiRF Yes, it's possible to get liposuction without fat transfer. For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermRF to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Liposuction for contouring vs. BBL Before the rise of the BBL, liposuction was routinely performed without fat transfer. However, large volume liposuction was not a good idea for contouring then and is not a good idea for fat harvest now. Think of liposuction as a sculptor's tool. It is designed for shaping and fine tuning. The optimal patient has one or more areas that have been resistant to diet and exercise. They are healthy and have achieved a healthy, stable weight (preferably with a BMI < 30).With regards to your specific question, the simple answer is "yes." However, in reality it is more complicated than that. The legal liposuction limits are generally 5 liters (lipoaspirate/performed in an office setting). However, it is important to remember that different goals yield different results. A patient undergoing liposuction for fat transfer has the primary goal of maximizing fat yield for transplant. In contrast, a patient undergoing liposuction for contouring is primarily seeking an improved contour. Aggresive or over-suctioning an area can lead to irregularities and skin laxity. Thus the two procedures, while similar, differ in the manner in which they are performed.As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Answer: Liposuction without fat transfer? The goal of liposuction is to remove fat in those areas which accumulate despite diet and exercise, thus recalibrating the fat stores in a more favorable fashion. Liposuction of the abdomen, back and thighs will result in a waist as small as possible and produce a dramatic improvement in shape. Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent so consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year with favorable patient feedback.
