I Was Wondering if a BBL Could Be Performed on a Patient Who Suffers from Folliculitis on the Behind?

Question

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

To minimize infection risk, the folliculitis should be treated prior to the Brazilian buttlift.  I perform about 500 Brazilian buttlifts each year, and this procedure is the most surgeon dependent plastic surgery procedure.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlifts each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.

If you indeed have folliculitis, this will need to be treated by a dermatologist first.   Once resolved, then yes, you can opt for a brazilian buttock lift procedure.

If the condition is only folliculitis, this can be treated. Once cleared a Brazilian Butt Lift can be performed without increase in risks
