With a BBL comes the risk of bruising, stretch marks, and infection—but it doesn’t stop there. Some of the most deadly risks of BBL surgeries include blood clots, cardiac complications, and fat embolism, where the fat transferred to the buttocks moves into the bloodstream, causing a blockage of the lungs.
The BBL is the fastest growing cosmetic surgery in the world, despite the mounting number of deaths resulting from the procedure. What is driving its astonishing rise.
BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) is a cosmetic procedure that involves the transfer of fat from other parts of the body to the buttocks to enhance their shape and size. While the procedure has become increasingly popular in recent years, it is also associated with significant risks and potential complications.
The main danger of BBL is the risk of fat embolism, which is a potentially life-threatening condition that can occur when fat is injected too deeply into the buttocks. Fat cells can enter the bloodstream and travel to the lungs, heart, or brain, causing blockages and reducing oxygen supply to these organs.
Other risks and potential complications of BBL include infection, bleeding, skin necrosis (death of skin tissue), asymmetry, and dissatisfaction with the cosmetic results.
Moreover, BBL is a highly invasive surgery that requires significant recovery time and may cause significant pain, discomfort, and scarring.
It is crucial to discuss the potential risks and benefits of BBL with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon and carefully weigh the decision to undergo the procedure.
