Would I benefit from a BBL? (Photo)

Question

I’m wanting to reduce the dimpling and have a more lifted appearance.

Ryan Rebowe, MD · Answer

In your case, I would say that a BBL would give only a minor correction. Not only do the areas that you are inquiring about have a minimal deformity, but your donor sites of abdomen and flanks have minimal fat to transfer. This will result in only a minor to modest improvement. It is possible that you may have more fat to transfer, but this can only be assessed on an in person physical exam.

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. This helps contour your waist and give you an hourglass figure, and the transferred fat will add projection to your buttocks. 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 the surgeon you choose has extensive experience with BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Based on your pictures, you are an excellent candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). A BBL consists of harvesting the fat and strategically placing this fat in your buttocks and lateral hips in aim of establishing the buttock projection and hip width you desire. While there are general limitations (generally less than 5 L of fat) to this procedure, combining this procedure with strategic liposuction to your flanks may help you achieve an improved silhouette and optimal results. 
A virtual or in person consultation with a BBL specialist will provide you an accurate recommendation and pricing.

Hello @JMadden94, thank you for your question. yes you would benefit from BBL. It is always my goal to perform this procedure in conjunction with liposculture in order to enhance body shape and improve the body lines. From here, I harvest fat to make a fat injection in the buttocks with micro seeding to generate more volume and give it a great shape. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD.

Dear JMadden94,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.
