I did Los Deline fillers 3 years ago and in my ultrasound, I still have some fillers left in my buttocks. Can you still go ahead with BBL?
Answer: BBL candidate Dear lannle, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Can I get a Brazilian Butt Lift if I have Los Deline (aquafiller) in buttocks? Yes but best to use only a Plastic Surgeon with vast experience fixing illegal injected buttocks. Expect fees in the $6,500 ranges.

Answer: Safe BBL Given your history, a safe BBL also known as Safe California Ultrasound Assisted Buttock Augmentation (SCUBA) performed at my practice will allow for the safe transfer of fat by allowing us to more precisely visualize the surrounding structures and minimize your risk of a potentially detrimental fat emboli. The optimal BBL outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons. A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACS Realself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee

Answer: BBL with filler in place This filler tends to create pockets of filler like little internal lakes rather than incorporating in the tissues unlike fillers used in the United States. Since the BBL is a blind procedure there’s no way the surgeon will know if he’s injecting fat into the pocket where the fillers are. Any fat placed adjacent to the filler will 100% necrosis and could cause a large area of flat necrosis. Personally I would be apprehensive of doing a BBL but there are others who may be willing to do the procedure. One option is to have the filler removed first. That could be done by an interventional radiologist under direct visualization. You’ll have to ask around to see how providers feel about doing the procedure. You should also have consultations to make sure you’re a good candidate for a BBL in the first place regardless of your history of having these fillers. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
