Should I get a Brazilian Butt Lift or Tummy Tuck done first? (photos)

Thank you for your question. First, you should keep in mind the max Body Mass Index (BMI) limit for tummy tuck surgery is 33 and for the BBL it is 35. That said, I perform many BBL & tummy tuck combo procedures at my practice. But, if you're considering having the procedures done individually, then it makes sense to do the tummy tuck first. Then 4-5 months later, a BBL can be performed. The reason being that if you have significant excess skin and you get liposuction in that area, the area will look wrinkled, scarred, and irregular. Also doing significant liposuction on the abdomen and then having a tummy tuck later can predispose you to wound healing complications after the tummy tuck. I would recommend getting a proper evaluation by a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

A few different options, the one that I recommend would be lipo and BBL first, with the next stage being tummy tuck. This way you have maximum amount of donor fat for the BBL. I would suggest you get consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Hi!Ideally, prior to surgery, your BMI should be close to 30 in order to decrease surgical risks. In regards to the order of the surgeries, I would suggest you have the BBL first so that any of the stubborn fat that was not lost with dieting and exercise, could be removed during liposuction and harvesting of fat. After the lipo/BBL, you will develop excess skin. However, few months later, you should be able to undergo removal of the excess skin with an abdominoplasty. Good luck!!!
