I have been told time and time again from women who have had lipo 360 with BBL done that they have lost most of their projection due to the fact that they have tight skin. I am 5’3 160lbs but most of it does not look as if it will be fat and instead it’s muscle. My biggest fear is getting the surgery done and losing the majority of it due to having tight skin. Is this the case for every woman who is on the thinner side with very little lose skin? Or does it vary per patient?
Answer: For women with tight skin, is it more than likely you will lose most of the fat after lipo/BBL? Hello and thank you for posting. Tight skin will not make your loose fat after the BBL. Tight skin may make it harder to fill out the butt when doing the BBL but it has nothing to do with fat survival.

Answer: For women with tight skin, is it more than likely you will lose most of the fat after lipo/BBL? (Photo) After having performed this procedure hundreds and hundreds of times, you see patients all along the range of human anatomy. I would say that there are a lot of variables that factor into the result. Unless your skin has been affected by burn, trauma, previous surgery, or some type of skin disease, you can likely still get a great result. Tight skin may limit the amount of fat that can be transferred. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who can determine your fat stores and discuss the amount of projection you can likely attain.

Answer: For women with tight skin, is it more than likely you will lose most of the fat after lipo/BBL? (Photo) Hello. Always a 15 to 20% of the fat transfer is reabsorbed by the body, this is normal, thats why I always inject much more of what is needed to compensate. The mos important things for not loosing the transfer fat cell is the harvest technique being the traditional tumescent one the best to preserve the integrity of the fat sell for its survival in the receptor area. And the second most important thing is to avoid massages or ultrasound in the area. Having tight skin has nothing to do with it. American Society of Plastic Surgeons, 29-year experience.

Answer: Who gets the best results Generally speaking having tight skin is in my opinion the single most positive variable or attribute a patient can have to be a good candidate for both Liposuction and fat transfer procedures.
