Will I get the results I want with a BBL? BMI 28.7, apple shaped body (Photo)

Question

I have had some initial opinions, some said my wish pic is totally possible, some said I might need 2 rounds. I also am concerned because I have broad shoulders, but am hoping better lower proportions even me out. I hold all my weight in midsection/chest. I workout and eat generally well, I also walk everywhere. I weigh 188, I’m thinking losing 10-20 pounds might help for my goal? I do not want a huge butt or a “vixen” look. Just a perky bubbly butt and slight curves.

Thank you for your question and pictures. I would recommend you liposuction with BBL for betters results. If you're willing to travel, Surgeons in the Dominican Republic have experience and very high standard of excellence when it comes to plastic surgery. I'm positive you can get what you're looking for

Thank you for your question and photos. From your photos, you are a good candidate for BBL. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas creating a shape that accentuates your hips & buttocks. Fat transfer to your hips & buttocks will bring out your curves, increase volume in your buttocks and improve shape. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good BBL candidate. The BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive experience with BBL surgery and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dear Amandajohnz,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

You are a great candidate for lipo 360/BBL. But no surgeon can ever guarantee results, though I suspect you can achieve the "apple" or "hour-glass" appearances. Expect fees from $6,500-$12,500.
