Gluteal Lipotransfer in Barranquilla
Gluteal lipotransfer shapes and projects the buttocks using your own fat. It provides a proportionate and natural result, utilizing a technique focused on safety.
What is gluteal lipotransfer?
Gluteal lipotransfer, also known as a BBL, is a surgical procedure that improves the shape and projection of the buttocks using the patient’s own fat. First, fat is removed from areas where it is in excess—such as the abdomen, waist, and back—and then it is processed and reinjected into the buttocks to provide volume and contour.
This surgery demands a commitment to safety. The correct technique involves reinjecting the fat into the superficial plane, never into the muscle, to avoid serious complications. Therefore, the method is just as important as the result.
The goal is not a disproportionate buttock, but a silhouette that is harmonious with your body. The projection is determined by your anatomy, not by trends.

The surgeon behind your gluteal lipotransfer
I am Dr. Eliana Garcés, a plastic surgeon in Barranquilla. I see aesthetics as an investment in well-being: surgery and regenerative medicine work together to achieve real, long-lasting results.
In fat transfer buttock augmentation, safety is non-negotiable. I use a technique that reinjects into the superficial plane with careful judgment, as this procedure carries real risks when performed incorrectly. I am also clear about proportions: I enhance the beauty of your figure without distorting your anatomy.
If you are not a candidate or if you seek a volume that does not benefit your body or your health, I will tell you honestly.

The gluteal lipotransfer process
Assessment
Evaluation of available fat, buttock shape, skin, health, and expectations. This stage determines if you are a candidate and what projection is harmonious and safe.
Preparation
Comprehensive pre-surgical exams and, when appropriate, a prior nutritional and regenerative plan to ensure you are in the best possible condition.
Surgery
Removal of fat from donor areas, processing, and reinjection into the superficial plane of the buttocks. Safety guides every step.
Follow-up care
Support garment, instructions to avoid sitting directly for the first few days, post-operative check-ups, and technology to maintain the result.
Safety and proportion over trends
Fat transfer buttock augmentation became popular, and with that popularity came excesses: disproportionate volumes and unsafe techniques that have caused serious complications.
My approach goes against that trend. I reinject into the superficial plane, never into the muscle, and I determine the projection based on your anatomy, seeking a natural silhouette. I prefer a harmonious and safe result over a flashy and risky one. I never distort a body to follow a trend.
Who is a good candidate for gluteal lipotransfer
Not everyone who wants surgery is a candidate, and not every consultation ends in surgery.
You are a good candidate if you have enough fat in donor areas for reinjection, seek a proportionate improvement in buttock shape, have realistic expectations, and are in good health to undergo surgery safely. Very thin individuals may not have enough fat to achieve the desired change.
If you seek a disproportionate volume or if your health does not permit it, I will tell you frankly. In this procedure, safety is the priority.
