Is 300cc enough for a BBL? (Photo)

300 cc transferred to each buttocks in a BBL is an extremely low number.  If you are not looking for a huge increase in size, that may be okay, but if you are, I worry that you will be disappointed.

Thank you for your question.  Based on my experience, 300 cc does not change the projection that much.  My average fat transfer is 500 cc - 800 cc per side.  And I have done more for patients who want to go really big and can accommodate large amounts of fat.  I usually stop when it starts getting too tight and fat starts leaking out.  If you put in to much fat under a lot of pressure, it can become counterproductive because more fat will not survive.

Hard to really tell how much fat you have from the provided pictures, but based on your height and weight, I imagine you have more fat to transfer than your surgeon is planning to transfer. Every surgeon has different a  philosophy and attitude, but in my practice, I have not found 300 cc to be an adequate amount to achieve significant differences in projection and width. Hope this helps - Sam Jejurikar, MD

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
Based on your pictures, you are a great candidate for liposuction with BBL, and I think you'll get very good results. To determine the right amount of CC's to transfer in a BBL, an in-person consultation is in order, because it depends on a number of factors.
Liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. You can improve your abdomen, hips, back and flanks, and of course your buttock, to give you a nice heart shape.
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 33 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 :)

I do not now haw can a surgeon predict the amount of fat that can be harvested, I do not have that ability. If he has a 300 cc limit, I think you should look for second opinions, to achieve the result you want you will deffinitely need more than that. It is impossible to tell you the amount that we will be able to harvest, it can even be 1200 cc as he said, but the truth is that your surgeon should use all available fat. Best f Luck, 

Hi, thanks for your inquiry and for posting your pictures, it depends in the kind of projection you are looking for. In average patients that want from moderate to big projection want more than 500 cc each side. Please make sure that you and your surgeon are on the same page. Don't
forget to discuss all your concerns, options and expectations
thoroughly. Have a safe and pleasant PS Journey!Respectfully,Dr. Jaime Campos-Leon

More pics and an in person examination would be needed to give you an accurate answer.  It all depends on your goals though.  To produce a slimmer waist, properly done lipo will give you impressive results.  The fat is needed to shape your hips and buttocks and to give you more projection.  If you are looking for a lot of projection, then in my experience more than 300 ccs is needed for each buttock.  Hope this helps!
