Choosing An Experienced Surgeon

The permanency of fat grafting or fat transfer procedures can be somewhat variable, with people seeing up to half of the grafted fat disappear in the first 6 months. Some level of reabsorption or fat cell death is expected and unavoidable, however there are a number of things both you and your surgeon can do to ensure a high percentage of permanency. After the procedure, you should avoid placing any pressure on the areas where new fat grafts were placed.

Maintaining a healthy diet and avoiding weight fluctuations will also help ensure that you keep fat in the buttocks and not to gain any where your liposuction was done. When you choose an experienced BBL Plastic Surgeon, their in-depth knowledge about successful fat grafting ensures that viable, live fat cells are injected carefully and their technique ensures maximum, “take” in the transfer areas. Patients who desire drastic volume added to the buttocks may choose to have additional grafting done 3-6 months apart and build their result.
