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?

During a physical exam, I typically evaluate the different factors that are creating an abnormal shape of your buttocks. Certainly, having a bony structure that is abnormal will make the procedure harder. I have seen patients that have a high hip, which creates some problems when sculpting the buttock and hip areas. Now, I have performed fat transfers in some patients with an abnormal bony anatomy, and typically you need a significant amount of fat to sculpt and cover the abnormal bony proportions. Consult a plastic surgeon to determine if your shape is mainly due to your bone versus your structure, muscle, or fat distribution.

Based on your photo, you appear to be a a very good candidate for fat transfer to the buttock (Brazilian buttock lift). I agree that you have a square appearance to your lower body and buttock. This will be dramatically improved by liposuction of the love handles, mid-back, lower back, plus the abdomen.  Your butttock will not only be fuller and shapelier but your overall gluteal/lower back contour will be quite attractive.  Your height and weight also make you a great candidate; of course you would need to be examined by a board certified plastic surgeon to confirm this in person.
