Is there a maximum amount of fat that can be removed during liposuction, and a maximum that can be redeposited safely? I have little to no booty...and I am looking to have more curves and a bigger rounded bottom...but I want to be realistic in what I expect.

Answer: How much fat can be removed with liposuction and injected for buttocks augmentation?
There is no "maximum" amount of fat that can be removed! The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recommends not removing more than 5000 cc of "aspirate" if you are going home after the procedure. The "aspirate" is a combination of the fat as well as any blood or tumescent fluid that comes out with the fat. If you are having this procedure done in a hospital, (which is the only way I would do this procedure for safety reasons), you may have more removed.
How much fat is injected depends on several factors. Often the main factor is how much fat you have to be removed. Another factor is how much room there is in your buttocks. If too much is injected, you will likely see a higher percentage die.

Answer: Brazilian Butt Lift
The maximum volume of pure fat that can be removed is 5000cc.
The maximum amount of fat transferred to the Buttocks can be determined by physical exam, the quality of skin and how much the buttock can accomodate an increase in volume and pressure and not compromize the circulation to the buttocks. The range is 800-1200 per buttock. to harvest that amount of fat takes time to prepare and purify for injection to assure the best chance for all that fat to take.
