Is BBL Dangerous?

How to have a safe BBL?

Every year many women undergo BBL in Iran to have a perfect butt. On the other hand, many patients are afraid to have BBL surgery. The questions to be asked here are, “is BBL dangerous? And should you have the surgery?”

Although all types of surgery involve a percentage of risk, with the advancement of medical science and using Iranian surgeons‘ knowledge and experience, this risk has been minimized.

Common BBL risks and complications

Like every other surgery, there are some possible risks and side effects associated with a Brazilian butt lift. BBL risks and side effects range from mild to severe, including:
• Swelling
• Infection: it is not that common but still possible. You may experience fever and yellowish discharge from the site of the surgery. You may also notice a foul smell from the incision.
• Seroma: This can happen with fluids accumulating under the incision. Seroma can cause the area to swell and may increase infection.

In some occasions, BBL risks could be more severe, and the surgery may lead to:
• Hematoma: the blood will collect beneath the skin and decrease the blood pressure.
• Bleeding: extreme bleeding is possible after the surgery.
• Fat necrosis: Some of the fat cells may die if they do not have enough blood supply after the surgery
• Pneumothorax: This happens when the air leaks into the area amidst the lungs and chest wall. This can raise the pressure on the heart and lungs and can be life-threatening.

With all said, undergoing surgery with a board-certified surgeon can reduce the possibility of developing many of the abovementioned BBL risks and side effects.
