You should be within a normal BMI before considering surgery - you are xposed to much higher risks and potential complications.

I'm sure you can find a surgeon to perform a BBL on a patient with a BMI of 40, but the better question is should a person with a BMI around 40 have a BBL.  A BMI of 40 is the definition of morbid obesity. Infections, wound issues, blood clots which can go to the lungs, and heart attack which can be fatal. It is best that you lose weight and have a BMI closer to 30 to reduce your risk of complications.

Hello. We can always perform liposuction and bbl on patients with high bmi. It is just that the results won't be so grand due to your weight   It is best recommended that you work in weight loss prior to planning your Brazilian lift. Thanks

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
It is very risky to performed surgery on patients with a BMI above 33.
In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 33 or less.
l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)
