DR. DEVGAN'S THOUGHTS ON BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFTS AND THE SAFETY HAZARDS INVOLVED

In recent years patients have become obsessed with Brazilian Butt Lifts. The death rate from Brazilian Butt Lifts is 1 in 3000. This is one of the many reasons Dr. Devgan, a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon has stopped performing this procedure.

Instead Dr. Devgan is using injectables to achieve better bottoms. The aesthetic looks just as good without putting the patients health at risk.
