Can I have a BBL and abdominal etching at the same time? (Photo)

You can absolutely combine Brazilian Butt Lift with abdominal etching provided you are otherwise healthy.  My only concern in your case is whether or not you would have enough fat to provide a good buttocks result.  If not, buttocks implants may be an option.  Good luck!

Thank you for your question and photo! I suggest you seek a board certified plastic surgeon and have a consultation.  I routinely perform multiple procedures together in one session.  Best of luck!Dr Dhaval PatelDouble Board Certified Plastic SurgeonChicago Hoffman EstatesOakbrookOrland Park

hello citlallyYes you can, you should visit or contact your plastic surgeon about your concerns. #options #procedures

The success of a BBL(fat transfer to the buttock) depends on having sufficient fat. Although you can have etching done at the time of your liposuction, I'm concerned you will not have enough fat to perform the shaping of your gluteal area. Remember that about 30-40% of the injected fat will shrink and atrophy within the first two or three months after the procedure. Consult with a few plastic surgeons in person for an exam and review of your aesthetic goals.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

I appreciate your question.The liposuction needed for the fat grafting is typically taken from the abdomen which can also be etched.Just know that long-term etching can look worse if you gain a lot of weight or stretch the skin out with kidsThe best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

Hi, thank you for the question... Yes these could be done together, this would depend of the amount of fat tissue in the area... 

Hi, thanks for your question. Since liposuction is required for a BBL procedure, you can certainly have 'etching' to the abdomen at the same time. As long as there is an area on your body where fat can be safely harvested, then BBL can be performed. If you are a fit person, then smaller amounts of fat grafted to the buttocks can make more of a difference. Best of luck. 

It is true that one needs to harvest some fat for the fat grafting procedure. However if you are thin, grafting even a small volume to buttocks will give you quite a significant improvement especially in the shape of the buttock even if you cannot get a very large augmentation in the volume.So it may be worth your while to look into this option. Doing the liposuction/etching on your abdomen may enable you to let your body weight ride up slightly while keeping your definition of your "sixpack"

It is actually more beneficial to do these procedures together. You need to find an expert in the following modalities: vaser lipo, powerX tool, J plasma. Fat from your abdomen (as well as other areas such as flanks, medial/lateral thighs, etc) will be grafted into your buttocks. Abdominal etching can be done at this point.
