My BMI is 21 and I am 5’ 5” weight 131. Would BBL be a feasible option at my current weight?

A good candidate has enough fat available for transfer in the procedure. The amount of fat that can be transferred in a BBL depends on how much fat the patient has to harvest and the amount of space there is to move the fat into. It is recommended for the patient to have a BMI of 30 or less. If you are too thin, a Brazilian Butt Lift may not be possible.

Always speak with a board certified plastic surgeon about your medical history and expectations.  Based on your photo and discription, you appear to be a candidate for a tummy tuck and butt lift at the same time.  Keep your BMI in a healthy range so you can maintain your new look!Buttock Augmentation, or a Butt Lift, is a very personal procedure and you should do it for yourself, not for someone else. You may be a good candidate to receive a buttock augmentation if:
You are physically healthyYou have realistic expectationsYou are bothered by the feeling that your buttock is too smallYou are unhappy with the roundness or general shape of your buttockYour buttock is asymmetrical

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well..evaluating your case and the photo exposed, ideally if you want to perform both procedures both abdominoplasty and bbl, the ideal would be that you do not diet and that on the contrary you eat more food and gain a little weight, since the bbl is with a liposuction that The patient undergoes the process of fat removal and we plastic surgeons collate and shape the buttocks giving shape and firmness, but if you do not have enough fat you can not complete the procedure more than the tummy tuck.but the ideal would be that you are evaluated in person with a certified plastic surgeon so he can give you indications of what you have to do and what procedures apply.

Thank you for your question and photo. Based on this close up frontal abdominal view, all I can say that you have loose skin with some fat and an umbilical hernia. Difficult to make a recommendation for a BBL when your back and side views are not posted. Yes, you can have a BBL and a tummy tuck at the same time. See a board certified plastic surgeon experienced in advanced body sculpting techniques for an in person consultation/evaluation. Good luck.

Dear Lizliz125,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.Daniel Barrett, MD

hi and thanks for your question. Congratulations on the weight loss.50lbs is tremendous. You likely have lots of loose skin? You might be a candidate for a body lift/ belt lipectomy and instead of throwing the tissue away on the backside - we might use it as an autograft. The one picture isn’t enough to tell if any of this is feasible for you so consult with a board certified member of asps/asaps Good luck

Hello dear!Thank you for your question and provided information.
Based on your photos, you are a good candidate for a liposuction with BBL and tummy tuck, I think you'll get very good results.
Liposuction allows your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. You improve your abdomen, waist, back and of course your buttock to give you a beautiful heart shape.I recommend you to make an appointment with a board plastic surgeon for a good evaluation and to talk about your goals.Best of luck :)

Hello
I recommend a full tummy tuck combined with a full body contouring and BBL. I would suggest liposuction on your back and flanks as well if you want. You have choices, but definitely you must be evaluated first to accomplish what you wished. Consult with a certified plastic surgeon.

Hi,
Thank you for your question and your pictures, based on your pictures your a good candidate for a Liposuction and a Tummy Tuck. Areas to consider would be your back bra rolls and flanks. Removing the fat from the back bra rolls and waist alone can greatly improve your overall shape and enhance your curves. Once your waistline is more defined like an hourglass you will be able to see your buttock shape. It's hard to see your skin condition and elasticity their might be some skin retraction after the Liposuction on your abdominal area. I just don't know if it will be enough to keep you satisfied and not need a Tummy Tuck.  Its best to consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon to get an examination to assess the areas and outcome. Best of luck.

Hi, LizLiz. Congratulations on your weight loss!Performing a BBL together with a TT has become very popular. There are definitely pros and cons to combining the procedures and to staging them. Depending on your expectations and specific circumstances, one option over thd other may be better for you. An in-person exam and consultation would be needed. Based on the frontal photo you provided, it appears that you would be a good candidate for a TT. It does not appear that you would have significant fat from just your abdomen fof a BBL. However, hopedully you have some persistent fatty deposits elsewhere -- the back of the hips (above the buttocks) is often a good source of better-quality fat for a BBL.  In addition to providing the needed fat volume for transfer, countouring this area also helps give the illusion of the buttocks being more rounded and prominent. When combining a TT, some extra fat can be obtained by liposuction of the skin to be removed. Best of luck to you ahould you decide to have surgery, and I wish you a speedy and uneventful recovery!  Dr. Ghafoori
