I'm 150lbs, 5’4 tall, am I a good candidate for a BBL? (Photos)

Hello, thank you for your question. It seems like you can benefit from a BBL, fat can be taken from many different areas (abdomen, sides, back, bra rolls, thighs, arms, etc) depending upon the areas of excess and what your goals may be. Most patients get an immense benefit with maximal liposuction of the abdomen, sides, and back to obtain the smallest waist possible and then maximal fat transfer to the buttocks and hips. The goal is to transfer fat from areas where you find it displeasing to areas in which you would like more volume. I recommend you to schedule an email, Skype or in-person consultation with a board certified  surgeon for proper evaluation

A good candidate has enough fat available for transfer in the procedure. The amount of fat that can be transferred in a BBL depends on how much fat the patient has to harvest and the amount of space there is to move the fat into. It is recommended for the patient to have a BMI of 30 or less. If you are too thin, a Brazilian Butt Lift may not be possible.

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well.. based in your question  and the picture you showed you are a good candidate for tummy tuck ,full back liposuction and bbl.

Thank you for your question. Based on your photos you appear to be a good candidate for full body intense liposuction to improve your body contour and get better curves, especially in your waist area and Dominican Butt lift taking the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and hips, to mold them and get better volume, contour and butt projection.
Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Hello dear!
Thanks for the pictures and provided information as well.
Based on your photos, you are a great candidate for liposuction with a BBL and a tummy tuck, to give you a nice tight tummy and to get rid of the extra skin, and I think you'll get very good results. For safety and recovery reasons, it is not advisable to combine these procedures. You can divide these procedures in two sessions, six months apart.
Liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. You can improve your waist, back, thighs, hips and flanks, and of course your buttock, to give you a beautiful heart shape, along with the tummy tuck.
In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 30 or less.
l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

Thank you for your question and photos.  Yes you are a reasonable candidate for a BBL and you should be able to achieve a result close to your wish pic.  You appear to have some abdominal skin and muscle laxity and may need a tummy tuck in addition to liposuction to achieve your optimal contour.  Be sure to seek out an experienced plastic surgeon as this procedure is not without significant risk.Jeffrey Thaxton MD FACSCertified, American Board of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Plastic SurgeryMember, American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

Hi I think you will certainly benefit from redistribution of the fat from the tummy, sides, lower back to the buttock, go to a good setup and experienced consultant and don't be lead by the price point as this procedure is not without its problems. Warm regards Dr Prashant Murugkar

You will do well with BBL. With liposuction alone you may be left with some residual midsection  excess. If are willing to consider a tummy tuck, fat can be harvested from your abdomen before it is excised. Transfer to your buttocks will improve your curves nicely. Realistically your “wish” photos are probably more than can be safely achieved, but fir sure you will have a good change and improvement. 

Hi, thanks for sharing your concern and photos with us!
Looking at your photos I might say that you´ll be a great candidate to get an entire back, waist and flanks liposuction, with BBL, and tummy tuck, this is because all the extra skin located in this areas plus your abdominal muscle needs to be repaired.

Before all this, of course, you need to get a complete medical evaluation and laboratory exams to check everything is fine. Also please try to find a board certified plastic surgeon, remember that your safety, always, is going to be first.

Have a great day!

You are a perfect candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). The definitive treatment for a BBL is the use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat and strategic micro-packets transplant technique which can result in over 95% graft take. This means what you see is what you get and it will last you for life. As an official VASER trainer, I see botched BBLs weekly and observe a variety of suboptimal technical causes. We utilize a buttocks assessment tool to ensure that you receive exactly the buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or Facetime consultation with a BBL specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
