Episode Synopsis


Join Plastic Surgery Practice Co-Chief Editors Alison Werner and Keri Stephens as they talk to board-certified plastic surgeon Alex Zuriarrain, MD, FACS, of Zuri Plastic Surgery in Miami, about one of the fastest growing cosmetic procedures: the Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL. Zuriarrain talks about the ideal BBL candidate, what’s influencing the shape patients are asking for, and the need for patients to have realistic expectations. In addition, he talks about the need for plastic surgeons to really communicate to patients that this is a dangerous procedure. Patients not only need to know the mortality rate associated with the BBL procedure, but also that complications happen—even to the best surgeons. What’s more, patients need to know the limitations of fat grafting and that one round of liposuction and fat grafting may not be enough to get the final result they want.
