5'2", 130 lbs., concerned my short torso and hip bones will not lead to a good appearance post BBL. Should I still pursue this?

Asked By:makingithappen in Silver Spring, MD

I am 5'2", 130 lbs. (Fat might be extracted from my back and the roll around the waist in addition to abdomen/flanks in order to get an overall attractive appearance.) However, I am worried about my bone structure. I have a short torso and My "hip bones" are above my crotch giving the appearance of love handles and an overall square shape to my lower body, and I fear that this may not give me the attractive curve that should appear around the butt. Should I still pursue this surgery?
