Can anyone tell me how much $ it would be to smooth out the lumpy lipo area in my tummy & butt? Are my results normal? I would expect more since I was charged $25,000.00 for this procedure. Any advice on the best way to fix?
Answer: How much would it cost to repair my botched BBL? Although prices will vary, you should probably select a plastic surgeon who is a revision specialist and has done this hundreds or thousands of times.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: How much would it cost ? Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include: 1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA. 2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used? 3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery 4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

Answer: Repair botched BBL The main thing is that enough time has passed before a second liposuction is done. Secondary cases are not very difficult for experienced surgeons, but there is less fat available to take and the margin for problems in the liposuctioned areas is smaller. It's difficult to comment on cost because the procedure takes about as long as a primary procedure. It is unfortunate that you did not get the result you wanted, especially given how much you paid for it. Sometimes these charges are high due to a high-overhead geography.

Answer: How much would it cost to repair my botched BBL? Thank you for your question and photos. Even from these limited views, it is evident that you have a poor outcome. Not only that your body wasn't sculpted based on your muscular anatomy, the fat was placed in the wrong places. This left you with a square buttock, very similar to your preop, except fat was placed superior to the true anatomic buttock giving you a "V" shape.Correction of suboptimal surgery can be more expensive than a surgery done well first time. You now have internal scarring that makes the next surgeon's work more difficult. It can be done, but you need to choose a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques to get an hourglass shape with a round and projecting buttock. Good luck.

Answer: Cost of surgery Dear just4me2c,While there is always a chance for contour irregularities with liposuction, someone who takes their time and uses the appropriate sized cannulas should give you a superb result. I have all my patients wear compression garments and I use multiple sized cannulas to feather out the result. The cost of surgery depends on a lot of factors (type of surgery, number of treated areas, anesthesia fee, surgeon, facility fee, city, etc.). It would be the best to visit or call plastic surgery offices and ask for a price.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS Certified, American Board of Plastic Surgery Member, Am. Society of Plastic Surgery
