I came across this in an article:

“One of the fastest-growing operations is buttock enhancement,” Youn added. “Before it used to be just implants and fat, and now there are other non-surgical treatments to enhance the buttocks, as well. I do think that Kim has played a huge role in that because, obviously, her derriere is kind of a calling card for her.”
The hottest procedure currently on the market is the Brazilian butt lift, a two-in-one surgery where fat is liposuctioned from a person’s hips, legs, or stomach area and then transplanted into the buttock, helping achieve a fuller, higher behind. However, the BBL has one of the highest death rates for cosmetic surgery, sparking grave concern among those in the medical industry when a 2017 study found it had a 1 in 3,448 fatality rate.
“I stopped doing [BBLs] once some of the studies came out of how dangerous it potentially was,” Youn admitted.
But the statistics have drastically improved over the past four years, now having a revised mortality rate of 1 in 14,952, according to Aesthetic Surgery Education and Research Foundation in 2020. Concerned over why so many women were dying from the procedure, the foundation conducted a study that found that the deaths were caused when the fat was injected beyond the fat layer of the skin, going into the muscle layer, which could lead to a fat embolism.
However, when the fat was only injected into the superficial layer of skin, there were little to no complications, Barrett explained. “I do a lot of Brazilian butt lifts,” he said. “But you have to go to someone who’s board-certified because we actually have guidelines.”
