Can I get a BBL with a BMI of 36-37?

Question

Hi, I am a 22 year old and I have a BMI of 37 , I'm about 5'0 weighing 199. Majority of my weight is in my breast and thigh area. The issue is I an happy with my thicker body and I would like BBL performed on my body the way it is. Are there any doctors who will perform on high BMI . I am aware that "it is higher risk:"

Hello shanaegirl21,
It’s a pleasure to answer your questions! Every patient is unique, and there’s no an ideal weight for a successful Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery. Many of my full-figured patients who desire flat abs and a fuller, beautifully rounded backside opt for BBL surgery, and get amazing results. Request an in-person consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon to assess your candidacy for BBL based on your age, skin laxity, body shape, and health status, among other factors. During the initial consultation, he/she can help you decide if adding volume to your rear will be proportionately appropriate for your appearance and how much fat volume should be grafted. Have in mind that in states such as Florida and New York, the maximum liposuction aspirate that can be taken out are 4 and 5 Liters, respectively. When the lipoaspirate surpasses the 5 Liters, patients are admitted overnight in the hospital. Implementing healthy eating habits and regular exercise (taking advantage of the new increased metabolism after BBL) is essential to keep stimulating weight loss and avoiding retrieving the rendered fat. Best wishes! Dr. De La Cruz.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
Unfortunately no, your BMI needs to be 30 or less, for you to be considered a good candidate for plastic surgery
l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and the best options for you.
Good luck :)

Hello
There is no ideal weight for a BBL procedure, but  for optimal results  your BMI should be less than 30 for elective procedures.
 You definitely you must be evaluated first to accomplish what you wished.

I would recommend losing some weight prior to surgery to reduce your BMI for health and safety reasons (lower your rate of complications, easier recovery, optimize your results).
