My doctor said something about transferring the lipo'd fat directly into my buttocks. What is this procedure called? Or rather, the equipment that is used? And doesn't the fat need to be purified before it's injected?
Answer: BBL Technique As with any procedure, the technique employed in BBL will vary from one surgeon to the next. In spite of this fact the general principles remain the same: harvest fat from an area of excess to an area of relative paucity (i.e. take the fat from where you have it and don't want it and move it to where you want it and don't have it).Technically speaking there will be variations in how the fat is processed (washing, spinning, filtering) and in how the fat is grafted (submuscular vs. subglandular). There is no standard and every surgeon will swear by their technique.We,

Answer: Brazilian Butt Lift I use a system from Wells Johnson where the liposuctioned fat is captured and then transferred using an airtight system where the fat is never exposed to the environment. This system has dramatically improved fat graft take in my practice

Answer: Methods of fat transfer for BBL? I begin the surgery by removing excess fat from another part of the patient’s body (usually a “trouble area” like the stomach, thighs or hips, where excess fat resides) and carefully processes and purifies this fat before using small syringes to inject it into the buttocks, layering the fat starting from the deepest muscular layer. The fat is injected in several small well-hidden entry sites around the buttocks so that the doctor can shape the fat in the buttocks to create the most attractive shape.Fat cells are very fragile cells and are easily injured during the harvesting process. I use the Revolve system™, an advanced technology that gently harvests and processes the fat while achieving the maximal survival of fat cells for my patients. Good luck!

Answer: Methods of fat transfer for BBL? Upper gluteal area. Upper and lower gluteal area, aforementioned areas and in the trochanteric and subgluteal areas. Complications such as fat necrosis, gluteal erythema, infection, and fat embolism syndrome were more frequent and serious in the first stage, despite the authors having infiltrated smaller volumes.

Answer: Fat transfer for BBL Hello and thank you for your excellent question. Surgeons will all use different techniques for purifying their fat and transferring it. For instance, we use a combination of fat washing, chemical separation, decanting and filtering. Of course, you will need an in-person consultation to evaluate you for this procedure. Preoperative visualization and surgical simulation with the Crisalix system may help with your decision. Any treatment plan should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation in person with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!
