I'm discouraged. Is there any surgeon who can help me? 22 years old, 5’5, 1 pregnancy, social drinker, slight smoker 222lbs, apple shape. Looking for a surgeon to perform a BBL, and I don’t where to look I’ve spoken with a provider and they stated that my back fat was gonna cause me to not receive the best results, actively trying to lose weight but I think I've hit my plateau. Am I that disfigured that I can have a more proportionate curvy figure?

Answer: Am I that disfigured that I can have a more proportionate curvy figure? Thank you for your question. Before considering cosmetic surgery i would suggest you reach an stable weight thats closer to a BMI of 30. Based on the information provided, your current BMI is 36.9 which is considered high for surgery. High BMI poses high surgical risk and reduces the likelihood you will receive optimal cosmetic results. That said, you definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety. A key quality indicator is Board Certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Don’t settle for less than a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Answer: BBL and TT candidate Dear MulaMaddi06,based on your photos you will get the best results from a combination of BBL and tummy tuck after you reach goal weight. Generally speaking, you want to reach your goal weight before you consider a tummy tuck, otherwise your results will be suboptimal if you continue to lose weight after the surgery. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD
