Proportion-led planning. Safety-led decisions.

Understanding the treatment

A Brazilian butt lift uses a person’s own fat to alter buttock contour. Fat availability, skin quality and overall health affect suitability; it is not the same as a surgical skin lift.

Auren Global Health helps coordinate your questions, consultation arrangements and practical planning in Istanbul. The responsible clinician determines diagnosis, suitability and any treatment recommendation.

Is it appropriate for you?

Discuss the amount of donor fat, realistic proportions and whether another approach would be safer. A request for a particular size does not establish medical suitability.

What to discuss at consultation

Fat transfer requires a qualified surgical team and a detailed safety discussion. Ask specifically about current safety standards, imaging guidance, the hospital setting and how complications are managed.

Recovery & follow-up

Recovery involves swelling and individual restrictions on pressure, sitting and activity. Some transferred fat is absorbed, so early fullness does not represent a final result.

Before making travel commitments, ask your clinical team about the expected review schedule, support you may need and when you can safely fly. Recovery varies and cannot be guaranteed by a package timetable.

Risks & important considerations

In addition to infection, bleeding, asymmetry and fat loss, fat embolism can be life-threatening. This risk must be discussed explicitly before choosing surgery.

Ask about reasonable alternatives, including no treatment, and the plan if complications arise. Informed consent should address your own health history and the specific procedure proposed.

02 — Clinical assessment. Discuss your goals, medical history, alternatives and realistic expectations with the responsible clinician.
03 — Personal planning. Confirm the proposed care, itemised costs, appointment arrangements and follow-up plan before deciding.
04 — Continuing communication. Follow your clinical team’s recovery instructions and agreed review schedule.

Questions before you decide

Can a precise volume or final size be guaranteed?

No. Donor tissue, safe treatment limits, healing and fat retention vary. A surgeon should explain what is realistic for your anatomy.

How much will my treatment cost?

An individual assessment is needed before a meaningful quotation can be provided. Ask for a written breakdown of treatment, investigations, accommodation or transfers where applicable, follow-up and any exclusions.

When can I return home?

Your clinician must advise on travel readiness after considering the treatment and your recovery. Leave flexibility for review appointments and unexpected delays.

Where do I begin?

Explore the treatment information and send your questions through our contact page. A consultation with the responsible clinician is needed before any treatment decision.

What determines whether treatment is suitable?

Your health, medical history, expectations and clinical assessment all matter. Alternatives, including no treatment, should be discussed. Results and recovery times vary.

Should I book travel before assessment?

Confirm the proposed care and appointment schedule first. Ask the clinical team about review appointments, recovery support and clearance to fly before making travel commitments.

What should I check before deciding?

Ask who will provide your care, where treatment will take place, what the risks and alternatives are, what follow-up is planned and what the written price includes or excludes.

How should follow-up be arranged?

Agree the review schedule and the contact route for recovery concerns before treatment. Follow the responsible clinical team’s instructions; urgent symptoms require local medical assistance.
