Brazilian butt lift. I'm 34 with hypothyroidism. Do you think this surgery is pointless?

If the condition is controlled with medication and you are healthy, the BBL can be performed. Your plastic surgeon will have to obtain approval from your internist or endocrinologist.General rule of thumb is to be within 10 pounds of your weight goal, maintain a stable weight for several months prior to surgery, and have a calculated BMI of approximately 30. I would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of these procedures each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as before and after photos on that surgeon's website.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Being 34 with hypothyroidism does not make a BBL pointless. I have a lot of patients in their 30s who have hypothyroidism. As long as you are followed by a physician regularly and your thyroid levels are checked, there is no problem with having a BBL. Plus 40 is the new 30, so you might as well get that sexy now :)
