I'm 29, 5'8 and 200lbs. I've gained about 70lbs over the last couple years from depression and drinking. I gave birth about 8 years ago but easily lost the baby weight while breastfeeding. I was really happy with my curvier body at ~170lbs, now my fat is distributed poorly and I've been thinking about a BBL. My major areas of concern are my neck/chin, stomach, back, and arms. Any advice or thoughts would be very welcome, thanks!
Answer: Am I a good candidate for a BBL? (photos) Hello, thank you for your question. You may benefit from a BBL. Liposuction will remove the excess fat on your sides, abdomen, bra rolls, thighs, flanks, and arms. The fat harvested can be transferred to the buttocks to ensure optimal fat viability and projection. I recommend that you schedule an email or Skype consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your end goals.

Answer: BBL candidate Dear molmiller, based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Am I a good candidate for a BBL? (photos) 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. Liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. You can improve your waist, back 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 33 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 :)

Answer: Getting a BBL, depression and alcohol consumption Your pictures are in sufficient to make a good assessment. In order for us to make a good assessment we need standard pictures with patient standing in a neutral position showing their full body from the neck to their knees from the front, side and back for you. Pictures should be taken by someone else or using the timer on your camera from about 8 feet away. From the pictures you did pose it looks to me like the only thing keeping you from looking great his weight loss. Weight loss is free, healthy, requires no recovery time. If your alcohol consumption is enough that it’s causing you to gain weight then I would encourage you to stop drinking alcohol for both yours and your child’s sake. You may very well be a candidate for both liposuction and fat transfer but based on your pictures weight loss alone should do the trick. Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
