I am disappointed with my results and worried because there has been very little change. I still have scar tissue and a slight thick bulging skin on the left lower side, which hasn't improved. The scar tissue was difficult to address, and it hasn't disappeared, leaving me with a visible defect. Will the scar tissue eventually disappear, or is it likely to remain?
Hello there! Thank you for your question and the information provided. At this stage of your healing process, it is normal to experience some irregularities. It can take up to six months to see the final results, so patience is key. After a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), it is typical for about 70% of the transferred fat cells to survive, resulting in a minor reduction in buttock size. If you have any concerns, I recommend closely following up with your plastic surgeon for further evaluation and guidance.
In cases where scar tissue bands and cellulite bands in the buttocks do not expand after adding fat, it is important to understand that this is often predictable, and experienced surgeons should set realistic expectations. To encourage expansion in these areas, limited subcision can be performed. The lack of results is likely not due to how the fat was injected but rather inherent limitations. I recommend following up with your provider and discussing your results after three months or longer.
If you are unsatisfied with your BBL results, it could be too early to determine if the issue will disappear. After the recovery period, consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon for a physical evaluation is recommended.
