Thanks for your question.After your gastric sleeve, you would need to reach your goal weight and keep weight stable for 6 months. Once this is achieved, you can have a BBL. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Reaching a goal weight with your BMI below 30 is deal when considering body contouring procedures after massive weight loss.

Hello Dear,Thanks for the question and provided information as well.  
  In order to have a plastic surgery after a weight loose procedure it is important that you maintain your weight for at least 6 months after the procedure. Also it depends on the amount of pounds you loose because most of the time there is a lot of extra skin that needs to be removed. I recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss  all your concerns and your goals. 
  
Good luck :)

Gastric sleeve surgery will cause you to lose a significant amount of weight. The rule with weight loss surgery is to be weight stable for at least 3 months before having plastic surgery. It is typical that your buttocks will lose even more volume with the weight loss.

Hi there. First thing first. High recommend that you focus on the gastric sleeve procedure first and finish healing until your weight stabilizes. Please consult a board certified plastic surgeon who has extensive experience in body lift and BBL to address any concerns.  Best wishes to you!

I would wait until your weight stabilizes after your gastric sleeve before considering a BBL.  Best of luck.
