I haven't had much luck as they all seem as though there isn't much they can do to fix the bottom part of my butt to achieve a heart shape or even something near that... I also am trying to find a Dr that can do a bbl at a reasonable cost... I was quoted 20k!!! I nearly fainted... I also want to do a tummy tuck. Please help. Opinions?
Answer: BBL Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photograph, you are a great candidate for waistline contouring liposuction of your flanks, and lower back and fat grafting to your buttocks. This can greatly improve your overall shape with a smaller waist. Cost varies based on geographic region and surgeon expertise. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: Buttocks ptosis Thanks for your questions. It looks like you would be a great candidate for fat transfer to the buttocks (BBL) and it would be safe to do the tummy tuck at the same time. In fact the fatty tissue normally thrown away from the tummy tuck can be used as a fat source into the buttocks. Were you quoted 20k for just the BBL? I'm assuming the quote included the tummy tuck too? That's not an unreasonable price, but my my office would be happy to give you a quote if you call. Best of luck.

Answer: Am I a candidate for #BBL surgery? A BBL may be appropriate for you to contour your flanks, waist, lower back and buttocks. How much volume and projection is added to the buttocks depends on how much fat is available for liposuction. Even if only a modest amount of fat can be retrieved and transferred, the contouring improvement in the waist and abdomen is often so appreciable that it changes the shape of the transition to the buttocks. Where you have the fat injected depends in part on which parts of the buttock you want to enhance. Implants are also an option, though I personally do not perform them due to concerns about hardness, pain, infection and other issues. Go on some more consultations; you will certainly find quotes well below the number you cited!
