What are some important questions you should ask a doctor when getting a consultation for a BBL?
Answer: Questions to ask your BBL surgeon This is a great question! I always recommend that patients come into their consultation with a list of questions written out so they make sure to ask me everything they have been thinking about. Here are some of the questions I recommend you ask your surgeon:1. Are you a board certified plastic surgeon? (It is very important you see a board certified plastic surgeon, not a cosmetic surgeon, to make sure your procedure is not only as successful as possible, but as safe as possible.)2. How many Brazilian Butt Lift procedures do you perform a year?3. Can I see before and after pictures of your previous Brazilian Butt Lift patients?4. Do you use a big or a small cannula for the liposuction? (A small cannula is best because it prevents divots and dents in the skin, which are often seen after using a large cannula for lipo. Using this smaller, finer cannula for liposuction takes much more time than the larger cannulas, but the results are remarkably better. The small cannula also allows me to be very meticulous and better sculpt the body.)5. Is my current weight appropriate for the procedure?6. How many different areas are you going to need to liposuction? 7. What sort of results can I expect? 8. Are there any of your patients that have had the procedure that I can talk to about their experience? 9. What is recovery like after a Brazilian Butt Lift?10. Are there any complications I might be at risk for?Asking these questions should give you a good idea of the surgeon's expertise in Brazilian Butt Lift procedures and help you determine if it is the right procedure for you. Good luck!

Answer: What questions should you ask at a BBL consultation? Thank you for your question. You should ask everything that you are uncertain about during consultation. A board certified plastic surgeon should be able to answer all of your questions. It is crucial that you choose a board certified plastic surgeon who performs at least 100 of these procedures per year. Look at before and after photos, check board certification on the American Board of Plastic Surgery website, read reviews, read about the procedural technique, etc.

Answer: What questions should you ask at a BBL consultation? I would do research prior to the consultation with regard to credentials, reviews, and before and after pictures. You may want to ask about the number of BBLs performed each year and the revision rate.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: What questions should you ask at a BBL consultation? Being prepared prior to your consultation will allow the visit to run smoothly and efficiently. Some questions to either research prior to your appointment or ask your surgeon would be 1) Is the surgeon Board Certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery 2) Is the facility where the procedure is performed an accredited facility 3) How long has the surgeon been performing BBL and how often do they do these cases 4) What are the activity restrictions and what can be expected during the recovery period 5) What is the cost of the procedure (the Patient Care Coordinator will most likely discuss this with the patient) 6) What procedure is done to harvest the fat for the grafting? These are great questions to start the process.
