I don’t understand why my BBL looks like a chicken butt at the bottom, what can I do to fix the shape?

Question

I had surgery on 10/3/18 in DR; I’ve been noticing my butt at the bottom looks strange! It looks like a chicken butt at the very bottom. Can this be fixed or do I need to buy another faja with the butt out to help shape my BBL?

There are many factors in a BBL that can be corrected. When we look at the harvest donor site, we often see large scars that are dark or raised. These can be improved with our pigmentation protocols. In terms of the BBL itself, we have found it useful to either add more fat, remove and sculpt fat, recontour the buttocks, or remove fat necrosis lumps. In some cases, the indentations seen require a combination of Venus Legacy, Exilis, or Brazilian Cellulite Treatments to remove the indentation.

Thank you for your questions and photos! I suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing your desired results and having a physical examination.  This may be fixed with secondary fat transfer.  Best of luck!Dhaval Patel

You are an excellent candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) revision. The optimal BBL outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool ban be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or Facetime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
