Congratulations!

	Assuming you are in the hands of a responsible and experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with a lot of experience performing this procedure, you are about to significantly improve your shape.

	With regard to preoperative (and for that matter, postoperative) advice, please understand that we do not all do things the same way, and plastic surgeons tend to be very particular about their patient's postoperative regimens. There is no doubt in my mind that your surgeon would be very sad and frustrated to know that you were asking questions that might affect your safety and outcome from anyone but his office. And considering that you and your surgeon are going to be the ones responsible for whatever outcome is achieved, it really isn't fair to them (or yourself) to ask these questions of anyone not involved in your care.

	Please call your surgeon's office- they'll know what works best for their patients.

Thank you for your question. With most cosmetic surgery, it is recommended that you stop smoking six weeks before surgery. It is particularly important to increase the chances of survival of the fat grafts. Certain medications that increase the risk of bleeding such as Aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications, and some vitamins/homeopathic regimens should be discontinued prior to the surgery.

Preparing for a Brazilian butt lift is just like any other plastic surgery procedure.  You should be in good health and a stable weight.  Yes, during the procedure, liposuction is performed to "harvest" the fat.  The fat is then concentrated and injected into your buttocks.  

	 

	Good luck.

I need your photos to evaluate your case. If a PS has already seen you and decided you are a good candidate, Please follow up with your doctor as these issues require the attention of a plastic surgeon.
