Consultation and Preparation
The journey toward a successful BBL & Lipofilling begins with a meticulously structured consultation. Because every body stores adipose tissue differently, a standard visual check is never sufficient. When you visit a specialist at Liv Hospital, the process starts with a detailed medical history where the clinician asks about your previous weight fluctuations and physical goals. The goal of this evaluation is to provide objective evidence of available donor sites and to determine if a fat-based intervention is the most appropriate next step for your physical vitality.




The first line of preparation involves a hands-on assessment of the patient’s fat distribution and skin quality.
These clinical signs provide the surgeon with a “map” of the structural requirements. If the patient shows specific areas of high fat density in the abdomen or thighs, it is a strong indicator that the internal biological signaling is ready for a successful harvest and transfer.
To ensure a safe environment for BBL surgery, several systemic screenings are mandatory.
At Liv Hospital, we use high-resolution diagnostic technology to ensure the highest degree of accuracy, providing a clear view of your systemic health before the procedure begins.
What a patient consumes before surgery acts as the building blocks for post-operative cell survival.
Treating the body without addressing its internal chemistry is a missed opportunity. Our specialists ensure the biological environment is optimized to support the surgical outcome.
Certain habits can act as accelerators for complications and must be managed weeks before the BBL & Lipofilling.
Identifying these triggers is a hallmark of the specialized care at Liv Hospital. We work with patients to ensure their body is in its most resilient state.
The end goal of the preparation phase is to reach a clear and confident mental state.
By taking a comprehensive view of your future mobility and comfort, we ensure that you are an active participant in your recovery. Replacing uncertainty with a clear, data-driven plan is essential.
Before the procedure, the surgeon must identify the best areas to harvest fat from.
Professional observation at our clinic helps identify any underlying risks that must be managed before the Lipofilling begins.
In specific clinical scenarios, we test for sensitivities to surgical materials or local numbing agents.
Using these high-tech safety protocols ensures that the clinical team can make life-saving decisions in a matter of minutes, ensuring the structural foundation is secure.
For international patients, preparation includes coordinating travel and accommodation for their stay in Turkey.
At Liv Hospital, we provide a transparent preparation process, ensuring that every patient feels secure and informed before they enter the operating suite.
The end goal of the diagnostic and preparation phase is to reach a definitive management plan. Once all tests are completed—physical exam, mapping, and labs—your specialist at Liv Hospital will sit down with you to review the findings. If the evidence shows that your condition requires a surgical correction, we will discuss the options in detail. We encourage you to get reach to the hospital to finalize your journey toward a more contoured and natural silhouette.

Not necessarily. It is generally better to be at your stable, long-term weight. If you gain weight just for the surgery and then lose it later, the fat transferred to your buttocks will shrink, compromising your results. You want the result to look good at your normal weight.
If your hemoglobin is below a safe threshold (usually 11 or 12 g/dL), the surgery will be cancelled. Liposuction involves fluid and blood loss. Starting surgery with anemia is dangerous. You will need to take iron supplements to raise your levels before rescheduling.
No. You must avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for at least 2 to 6 weeks, depending on your surgeon’s protocol. This protects the new fat cells from being squashed and killed before they get a blood supply. You will use a BBL pillow or sit on your thighs.
Check if they are board-certified by the relevant plastic surgery board in your country. Ask specifically if they use ultrasound guidance and if they inject mainly in the subcutaneous plane. These are the markers of a modern, safety-conscious BBL surgeon.
You absolutely must quit. Nicotine clamps down on the tiny blood vessels that are trying to feed the new fat. If you smoke, you have a very high risk of the fat dying (turning into hard lumps) and the wounds opening up. It is not worth the risk.
