I lost around 20 lbs and my butt is still saggy and droopy, is a BBL the right option for me? (Photos)

Question

I go to the gym 4x a week, I lost around 20 lbs &my butt I'm still saggy and droopy... I'm considering a BBL but want to be sure this is the correct procedure for me. Thoughts? I'm 5'3, 164 lbs so yes i still have more weight to lose i know that but will a bbl correct this issue? The pics i attached are my butt currently. The next is a photo edited to how i am wanting my butt to look The next one is my belly/butt from the side to show I do still have fat to lose.

I think BBL can definitely help round things out for you. I'm not sure your wish pic is 100% realistic but I think it could be pretty close. It would take formal consultation to determine exactly what could be done.

Hi there!
Of course an in person consultation will be necessary to give an accurate answer, however it does look like you'd be a good candidate for a BBL. A BBL would allow your surgeon to inject fat strategically to fill in some hollow areas and build projection. A BBL can address the square shape of your hips and transform it to a nice hourglass figure.
You will want to be at your ideal, stable weight before surgery. 
Congrats on the weightless thus far!

Based on these photos, you seem to be good candidate for BBL with current weight. However, only on the basis of in person evaluation, an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in this procedure, can address all relevant issues properly. Good luck.

Miguel Mota, MD · Answer

The simple answer is definitely yes! Hi, and thank you for posting your photos, but it’s hard to fully evaluate you without seeing your full back and front. In any case, I do not think you need to lose much weight because we still want to have enough fat for the bbl.

As far as your wish pic, I feel this is very achievable. A bbl is often used to enhance the butt shape and not only to increase its size. I you like, I believe we can do both in your case.

Best of luck,
Dr. Miguel Mota

Dear kkvelle89,
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.
