Brazilian Butt Lift IN GOODYEAR & PHOENIX, AZ

Some patients are fit and trim athletes who don’t feel they have any body fat to harvest for this procedure. Throughout his years of practice, Dr. Rod has found that most people desiring a Brazilian Butt Lift have enough fat to harvest for this surgery. Schedule a consultation with Dr Rod at Dermacare Plastic Surgery to see if you are a candidate.

This is probably the most common question that Dr. Rod receives during fat transfer to buttocks consultations. After all, it seems as though it would be almost impossible to rest and not sit down for 2 weeks straight. However, thousands of plastic surgery patients do it every year. Your solution may include a combination of lying on your stomach or side, sitting with a specialty pillow provided by Dermacare propped up underneath your thighs so that you mimic the seated position without putting pressure on your buttocks, periods of standing, and sitting on your side.

Exercise should always be an important part of your daily routine, but when you’re recovering from a fat transfer to your buttocks, you need to take a break. First, your body needs to heal from surgery. Second, you must allow enough time for the transferred fat to create a new blood supply in your buttocks. Dr. Rod recommends that his fat transfer to buttocks patients in Phoenix wait 6 to 8 weeks before resuming their daily workout routines. However, this period could be shortened depending on how you heal after surgery.

If you are not at or very near your ideal weight, then you are not a good candidate for this procedure at this time. The reason is that as you lose weight, you cannot tell your body where to lose it. If you have a fat transfer to the buttocks and then lose a significant amount of weight in the future, you may inadvertently lose the transferred fat, thus returning to the flatter-looking buttocks you had in the first place. Dr. Rod typically requires his Phoenix patients to have been consistently at their goal weight for at least 6 months before this procedure.
