Can you get a BBL if you have avascular necrosis of the hips?

Question

Can you get a bbl with avascular necrosis of the hips? Or is it recommended to get hip replacement surgery first?

Finny George, MD · Answer

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. I would recommend that you do the hip replacement first and then the BBL 6 months later. Discuss all your options with a trusted board certified plastic surgeon.

Dear Phenomenal796508,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, you should be able to get BBL with avascular necrosis. However, it is better to get a hip replacement first and BBL later. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Always best to take care of real medical/life problems before doing cosmetic surgery. Plus ability to walk without pain from hip far out weighs a BBL.... don't you think....

I see no reason why you couldn’t have a BBL with avascular hip necrosis.

I suggest consulting with a few local board-certified plastic surgeons who have extensive experience with the procedure to get an assessment and see what each provider has to say.

Best,
