I had a bbl 2 years ago. Right off the bat, I noticed the fat was injected very high and once it settled, it left 2 noticeable dents on both my c. I went for a follow up with my doctor and he tried telling me the fat died there but the photos right after surgery show he did not even inject fat there to begin with and is offering a second round at only a 10% discount so I am not willing to go back to him. My question is would filler help and how much? I would want to avoid another bbl

Answer: Would filler correct dents or should I consider a revision? 2 years post op Brazilian butt lift Though you posted 3 photos, they are not unclothed to see complete body so very hard to tell if you have any more donor fat to use? I think a BBL Revision/Reshaping operation with BBL injections of Radiesse/Sculptra (10 vials) in a combination under ultrasound guided removal of over injected fat in upper hips/flanks/buttock with more lipo if available in body and reshaping fat injections are the answer. Fee from $6,000-$10,000... Best to virtual consult with....

Answer: BBL results Fillers are price prohibitive for doing body contouring. Delivering consistent quality, and Liposuction results is more difficult than most people believe. The number of plastic surgeons who truly deliver consistent quality results is relatively few. For this reason I suggest patient to be very selective in choosing providers. I suggest patients do this by having at least five in person consultations before choosing a provider. During each consultation, ask each provider to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before and after pictures of the previous patient had similar body characteristics for your own. Make sure after pictures were taken at least 3 to 6 months from the date of the procedure to be representative. We cannot make an assessment on the outcome of a plastic surgery procedure without seeing proper before and after pictures. If you don’t have before and after pictures and ask your surgeon to forward the ones they took. Your surgical markings shows the surgeon, grafting fat higher on your buttocks consistent with your results. Personally, I don’t view the BBL as a buttocks procedure, but rather part of body contouring, trying to create a feminine S-curve that goes from just below the armpit to just above the knees. The goal should be to create a perfect and accentuated S-curve. Do you still have the potential to get a quality outcome. Patient should be far more selective of provider selection, and then they think necessary. Recognize that a substantial number of plastic surgeons have not mastered either Liposuction or fat transfer. Indentation related to cellulite are not treated by fat transfer and can be made worse by fat transfer. The ability to make accurate assessment regarding patient candidacy is a large part of delivering consistent by patient satisfaction. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
