Any tips to gaining more weight if it's not possible?

Yily De Los Santos, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question and pictures. you are a good candidate for a liposuction with BBL. If you're willing to travel, Surgeons in the Dominican Republic have experience and very high standard of excellence when it comes to plastic surgery. I'm positive you can get what you're looking for

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good BBL candidate. The BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. In addition, if you do not have enough fat in these areas, liposuction can be performed in many other areas of the body for fat transfer to the buttocks, such as the upper arms and chin. Depending on your desired results, you may be asked to gain some weight. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive experience in with Skinny BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

You need to be examined to determine if you can get a modest increase in buttock size and shape with liposuction of the abdomen, sides, back, and legs and transfer of that fat to the buttocks. This procedure is highly surgeon and technique dependent. In almost every case, I do not recommend weight gain prior to a BBL. It is far better to maintain a stable weight rather than gain weight. The thinner patient requires an expert at liposuction to remove as much fat as possible while leaving the skin smooth.

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a good candidate for BBL. While your BMI is low, you seem to have enough fat in your midsection to transfer to your butt and achieve a good result. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options in person.

Dear kimmyxoxo18,
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.
