How much does 1200cc of fat weigh? What is the maximum amount of fat that can be taken/ transfer during Brazilian Butt Lift?

Fat cells should be injected into healthy tissues with good blood supply.  Ideally the fat cells are even distributed so that they all have access to oxygen and nutrients.  If you overfill a butt, which is certainly possible, it's no different than overfilling a cup... it just spills out and gets lost.  If you inject too much fat into a butt, most of these cells will just die before your body has a chance to grow new blood vessels into the mass of injected fat.  A bigger butt can handle a larger injection.World authorities on BBL will tell you about 40% of the injected volume survives.  If you inject too much, the % drops down dramatically.

The amount of fat that can be transferred in a BBL depends on how much fat the patient has to harvest and the amount of space there is to move the fat into.

Thank you for your question.

1200 cc of fat weighs approximately 2.5 pounds.

The limits of Brazilian Butt Lift depend on donor sites and the capacity with which the buttock area can receive the harvested and purified fat cells.

To be sure, see two or more experienced, board-certified Plastic Surgeons for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have surgery.

I hope this helps.
