I had a tummy tuck and bbl done in Jan 2019. Had revision July 2019. I gained 10lbs as recommended by my surgeon because he said I didn't have a lot of fat to lipo. My waist is bigger after the revision which leads me to think he never lipo'd my abdomen. not happy with my results. Does it look like I have enough fat for another revision? He says no and that it's mostly extra skin especially on my back? Covered my tattoos in the pix to remain unidentifiable. Im so insecure now :( I paid 20k

Answer: “Enough fat for another revision BBL?” The good news is, your surgeon has been forthright with you by saying that you do not have enough fat, especially if you had to gain weight for the last time around. Hence, doing the same exact same thing again (i.e. round 2 or 3? BBL) will likely not produce different results. The only relatively safe, reliable, and permanent option would be buttock implants. Because an extremely few number of board-certified plastic surgeons perform this procedure, make sure to find one that specializes in this procedure and only places the implants within the gluteus muscle (i.e. intramuscular) NOT on top or subfascial. Glad to help

Answer: BBL candidate Dear Dn992, 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.
