Age limit on BBL?

Dear glen8749,
as long as you are healthy, there is no age limitation for BBL surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Liposuction and to some degree fat transfer results are dependent on having a tight skin to give high-quality results. Skin laxity it’s probably the primary reason patients fail to get good results from body contouring procedures.

Patients who are older may not have significant skin laxity but skin elasticity does decrease with age which often acts similar to skin laxity. Significant fat removal with liposuction can also worsen skin appearance when skin lacks elasticity by showing fine wrinkles.

The interest in cosmetic surgery for body contouring seems to go down with age and facial appearance seems to be more important in those who are a bit older.

Patients in their 50s can certainly have a BBL procedure and if otherwise being a good candidate should expect good results but the results may not be as good as someone who is in their 20s.

Best,
