Question

I weigh 100 pounds , 5’2 and I wanted to get a butt lift I know u have to be like 24 BMI so do I have to be 130-140?

Moises Salama, MD · Answer

Thanks for your question. It is difficult to tell just from this picture if you are a good candidate for the BBL. I suggest you upload front, side and  back pictures of you in a two piece bathing suit for a better evaluation. That said, the BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. In addition, if you do not have enough fat in these areas, liposuction can be performed in many other areas of the body for fat transfer to the buttocks, such as the upper arms and chin. Depending on your desired results, you may be asked to gain some weight. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive experience in with Skinny BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

This really depends on your fat distribution and goals. On very petite patients, I frequently do will add some lipo to arms or legs to get the needed fat for the transfer.

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You will not have enough fat to transfer for a BBL, however, you may be a candidate for non-surgical BBL using Sculptra. Discuss this with your board certified plastic surgeon.

Emmanuel Mallol Cotes, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body from different angles. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Respectfully,
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Dear Cool481955,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. 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.
