I'm slim and petite, and I have a small butt. I want a noticabely bigger and rounder butt, but what if I don't have enough body fat for a Brazilian Butt Lift? What are my other options?
Answer: Not enough fat for Brazilian Butt Lift If that is truly the case, then there are two options. My first suggestion is to consider gaining some weight. I know this sounds counter productive, but as long as you gain it in areas other than your breasts, we can remove it with liposuction and use that fat to transfer to your buttocks. If this is not an option for you, then I would consider buttock implants. Both myself and my patients (some of whom have had prior buttocks implants) greatly prefer the results and feel of using your own fat as compared to the feel of a foreign body (silicone implant) in you buttocks. I have also seen many patients that have seen other surgeons and have been told that they didn't have enough fat for the Brazilian Butt Lift. I have frequently found that they did have more than enough fat to provide a significant improvement in the size and shape of their buttocks Best of luck to you.

CONTACT NOW Answer: What If I Don't Have Enough Fat for A BBL? Hello. If you really don't have enough fat for a BBL the only other option would be Butt Implants. Butt Implants go inside the muscle on the upper half of the butt, so they usually don't fill out the butt and hips as natural as a BBL would. I suggest you see a plastic surgeon with experience in BBLs on smaller patients for an evaluation. Smaller patients can achieve very good results, they may not be huge results, but very good results none the less. It will ultimately depend on what your looking for. I feel it is best to try the BBL first. If it doesn't work work then you can opt for the implants. Because doing the Butt Implants first and then having to remove them if they don't achieve the results your looking, may result in exess skin and a saggy butt. P.S. Try to post a follow up question with your photos and wish pics to better understand your case.Best of luck,Dr. Miguel Mota

Answer: Not Enough Fat for Brazilian Butt Lift Don't automatically rule out BBL. Even in very slender individuals, there may be enough fatty tissue in the areas of the waist, lower back, abdomen, and thighs to further reduce these areas and have enough fat to make a significant change in the fullness of the buttocks through fat grafting. I know from having performed the surgery many time on slender people that beautiful, full buttock contours can be achieved by fat grafting in people of all sizes! best of luck!

Answer: Buttock Implants First I would recommend that you seek a consultation by a plastic surgeon that commonly performs this procedure so that they can give you your options. The amount of fat needed depends on the shape and needs of each individual patient, however in general at least 500cc per buttock need to be placed to see a significant difference. On average patients typically receive around 800cc per buttock side for a total of 1600cc of fat transfer. However just like a breast augmentation the amount of fat needed various from patient to patients. Also the sculpting done with the liposuction is a big part of the procedure to improve the overall shape. Unfortunately fat cannot be taken from someone else and used for augmentation. However if a patient has a BMI of 22 they typically will have enough fat for the Brazilian butt lift. If they are smaller than this then they will need to consider doing an augmentation with implants. Buttock implants can give patients a very nice result. Commonly buttock implants are combined with some fat transfer depending on the needs of the individual person. When considering this procedure it is very important that you have your procedure performed by a board certified plastic surgeon. In general of the procedures that I perform this is one where patients tend to be universally extremely happy. I hope this helps.

Answer: Brazilian Butt Lift Option An implant is an option if you don't have enough fat to transfer to your buttocks. However, before making this conclusion, please see a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in performing Brazilian Butt Lifts. They may find that you do in fact have enough fat.
