Q: Quantity of fat injected per buttock

It varies according to the patient, of course (quantity of fat available by removal from the patient's body), but is often between 250cc and 700cc per buttock. During the consultation, depending on your expectations of results, the surgeon will inform you about the expected amount of fat to be injected.

Q: What is the principle ?

Most patients consulting in Nice or Monaco for buttock lipofilling are eager to obtain beautiful rounded buttocks, particularly in the upper and outer part of the buttocks. Similarly, these patients often have fat in the area of the wrists and waist. A lipoaspiration supported by these areas located above the buttocks will help to bring out this fat. By digging into the waist, the buttocks immediately appear more rounded and bouncy. The BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) is a procedure that consists of making a noticeable change in the patient's body and silhouette by redistributing the fatty areas in favour of the buttocks. The lipoaspirated areas are often the abdomen, the back (waist, love wrists and upper back), the saddlebags and the inner side of the thighs and knees. The fat thus removed by liposuction is then treated by washing, settling and centrifugation (the fat treatment technique may vary from case to case). The fat is then reinjected into the buttocks in the areas previously defined before the operation (marking of the areas to be reinjected is done before the operation on the patient in a standing position) in order to shape the buttocks as the patient wishes.
