Can a banana shape body achieve an hourglass body with TT, BBL and Lipo?

Question

I have a banan body shape (straight not very curvy body). And I would like to achieve a curvier hourglass body my height is 5'5" weight is 175 pounds

Adam Tattelbaum, MD · Answer

Thanks for your question. The answer is yes and no. If for example the curve of the hip is covered by a layer of fat, the removing the fat will allow the curve to be displayed. If under the fat there is not much of a curve the patient will be thinner but still straight.  In the same way a tummy tuck may help depending upon  the amount of muscle separation and weight inside the tummy.  Techniques such as brazilian butt lift can add curves by transferring fat.Only an in person evaluation can see if these options are realistic for you. the link below is an example of removing fat from one area and transferring it to another the accentuate the underlying curves of the patient.Hope this  helps.

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.For safety reasons, to be a good candidate for TT+Lipo+ BBL at the same time, your labs and cardiovascular preoperative evaluation must be optimal.Therefore, you must be a healthy person, within an appropriate BMI and no history of diseases that increase the surgical / anesthetic risk degree.Finally, I recommend you a skilled certified plastic surgeon in body contouring surgery and experienced in cases like yours where the planned operating time is less than five hours. Send your photos to give you better advices and recommendations about what should perform.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

This is largely dependent upon how aggressively fat is removed and redistributed by the surgeon.  Seek out a plastic surgeon who has performed these procedures hundreds of times and has a great number of reviews and before and after pictures.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can achieve a curvy look through combination of tummy tuck, liposuction and Brazilian Butt Lift fat grafting.  Through these combination of procedures we can make the stomach flatter and the booty fatter.  Always a nice thing.Cheers and best wishes,Steven Camp MD#HappyCamperMD

Doing the correct procedures it is achievable to create curves, a nice and tight muscle repair will help to make the waist smaller, the perfect and aggressive skin resection during Tummy Tuck. And definitely a great liposuction on the correct areas to sculpt the body and use that fat to transfer to buttocks and hips will complete te shape you dream for. Be encouraged. Dr. Cardenas

Thank you for your question.  Unfortunately without a full series of photographs, or an in-person examination, it is difficult to offer you the best recommendations, but in most patients noticeable changes can be obtained with procedures of the lower body. I would recommend seeing a board certified plastic surgeon in consultation. They should be able to offer you treatment options to enhance your appearance.

A Banana-shaped body  type can be enhanced by the performance of her Brazilian butt lift Witt fat transfer to your hips and  fat removal from  your waistline.

Ayman Hakki, MD · Answer

The answer is, Yes. The question is; who can do it. Choose an artistic board certified plastic surgeon, who operates at a certified facility and has done a ton or BBLs. Do not shy away from asking; "how many fat transfers have you done this year, may I see the photo if someone with my shape made better, and may I talk to someone who had a similar surgery recently?" Don't settle for vague answers. All surgeries carry risks and disappointment is common when snap decisions are made, so choose your surgeon carefully and good luck.

F. True Lansden, MD · Answer

Almost any body shape can be changed with the application of liposuction, fat transfers, and abdominoplasty.  You should consult a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in body contouring who can provide you with realistic expectations of your final results.
