Cheap bbl surgery: pros and cons
The cost of Brazilian Butt Lift surgery varies from patient to patient for a variety of reasons. Each patient must be considered individually because of their physical findings and unique aesthetic goals.
Patients may require different volumes of grafted fat and for this reason different numbers of donor sites. Fee quotes should include the surgeon’s fee, facility fee, anesthesia charge, fat processing equipment and pre and post-operative care.
Ask yourself if you want to gamble with your health. Investigate the doctor who you will perform the procedure with, and pay attention to his success rate and reviews.
When all of this is added together, the expense is significant. Although prices vary in different parts of the United States, I can think of no scenario where you can get a Brazilian Butt Lift for $2000.
Although affordability is important, your primary focus should be on quality and safety. (Richard J. Bruneteau, MD, Omaha Plastic Surgeon)
Beware cheap brazilian butt lift.
$2000.00 is not enough to cover the cost of your operating room or anesthesia alone. If you are being offered this price for cosmetic surgery, run away. (David Shifrin, MD, Chicago Plastic Surgeon)
A Brazilian Butt lift requires extensive liposuction in order to obtain the fat needed to inject into the buttock. In addition, the materials in the operating room are required to process the fat in a sterile fashion. Any type of large volume fat transfer will require general anesthesia. These are the minimum requirements to have a safe Brazilian Butt Lift.
I have not seen a safe Brazilian Butt Lift under $2000. A BBL procedure performed in the OR typically ranges from $4500 to $8500 if performed by a board certified plastic surgeon. (Robert Najera, MD, Frisco Plastic Surgeon)
If there are offering you a Brazilian butt lift for $2000 is absolutely a red flag, If there is something you should not go cheap is your health and your body.
Search for a facility with all the credentials and the most important a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. (Orlando Llorente, MD, Miami Plastic Surgeon)
Cheap brazilian Butt Lifts in the U.S. would start at around $6,000. A BBL under $2000 would not even cover the cost of anesthesia and the operating room charges. I would definitely question a cost this low and make sure you see a board-certified plastic surgeon using an accredited operating room. (Stanley Castor, MD, Tampa Plastic Surgeon)
I think the key word in your question is “safe”. The standard for a Brazilian Butt Lift would be to have it performed in a fully certified operating room (hospital or surgery center), with a board-certified anesthesiologist, and have a full complement of staff and equipment to be at “safe” standards. Unfortunately, the costs for these alone would already bring you over the budget you have set. And you haven’t even taken into account your surgeon’s fees, the number of areas of liposuction, and any complexities for your own particular case!
While it’s true that costs can vary from one area to another, the costs to perform surgery do not vary as much as you may think. You would be hard pressed to find a “safe” Brazilian Butt Lift for less than triple (in many areas, quadruple) the budget you have set. (Gabriel Chiu, DO, Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon)
It would be extremely rare to find a procedure that is this involved for this price by a board certified plastic surgeon.Here in Miami I see all the time where patients take a short cut or think they are getting a deal and in the long run it cost them much more than they every expected and at times puts their health at risk. Make sure that you are actually getting a Brazilian Butt Lift (liposuction and fat transfer) and not an illegal injection. Also make sure that your procedure is being performed by a board certified plastic surgeon, that the surgery center is accredited and that a board certified anesthesiologist is performing your anesthesia. Just be careful if the deal seems like it is too good to be true it probably is! (Johnny Franco, MD, Austin Plastic Surgeon)
$8500 is about the average in Toronto, Ontario for a Cheap Brazilian Butt Lift. You may be able to find something for $2000, but considering this is far below the average, you should check into the surgeon’s credentials and if the surgical facility is accredited. (Jerome Edelstein, MD, Toronto Plastic Surgeon)
Normally, this amount of money would not cover expenses necessary for properly equipping the operating room. Make sure you are consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in the Brazilian butt lift.
During your research, do not be afraid to contact more than one surgeon’s office to get a better idea of the price for the procedure in your area. (Constantino G. Mendieta, MD, Miami Plastic Surgeon)
This is a rather lengthy procedure requiring repositioning, precise contouring, and then treating the collected fat and then fat transfer to the buttocks. Most of the time you will be spending about, if not more, just for the anesthesia and operating room expenses. That doesn’t even include the physician’s fees. So, if you are paying less than $2,000, you will probably need to do this outside the US or highly question the surgeon performing the operation. I would inquire if he/she is a board certified plastic surgeon or someone who is only a cosmetic surgeon with minimal training, thus the lower cost of the operation. (Joel B. Beck, MD, FACS, Bay Area Plastic Surgeon)
