Do : Do not tell the plastic surgeon how to do plastic surgery. Consider a liposculpture of the entire torso and add the butt lift for a more beautiful figure. Trust the plastic surgeon and make sure he/she is a real board certified plastic surgeon.

Yes you can: Fat is nearly always harvested from the midsection and waitst during a brazilian butt lift in order to achieve a nice result. So, you probably don't have to worry. However, make sure you discuss this with your surgeon.

Possible: Your doctor knows your anatomy and knows the limitations. He may give you options and choices but the will need to approve what you request.

Yes: The areas best defining the buttocks are of course the areas immediately adjacent to the buttocks including the waist, sacral, or lower back area, hips, abdomen, & thighs. Your dr will tell you the best areas to harvest fat from for the effect desired, but be sure that your needs and desires are considered carefully and taken care of. The lower back area and sacrum in my experience are key!

Yes: You will have a discussion with your surgeon about where the fat is will come from and where it will be placed. Make sure to choose a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in bbls http://www.Drschulmanplasticsurgery.Com/body/brazilian-butt-lift-new-york-city/.

YES!: Yes, it is possible with few exceptions. Sculpting around the waist is important to produce the very best looking changes for your butt and the fat transfer thereto.
