After several BBL failures, Is it possible that some people are just not built to retain fat on their buttocks?
There are may factors that contribute to a successful fat transfer. Experience is probably one of the most important. Make sure that surgeons you're working with have substantial experience in high volume fat transfer. Ask them some of the techniques they use to get great results and review some of their before and afters.
Clinical Context
Fat transfer results depend on how the fat is placed as much as on the body receiving it. Fat needs a good blood supply to survive, so it must be injected in small amounts across healthy tissue rather than in large pockets. Scar tissue from previous procedures can also make an area less able to support new fat. Before assuming your body simply won't hold fat, it's worth having a surgeon evaluate whether technique, rather than anatomy, explains the results.
