I was advised to lose 20lbs before proceeding with a BBL and fat transfer due to deep visceral fat, is it possible to have a safe and successful procedure as well as decent results? I do understand because of deep fat I want have a really small waist, however is it possible to get rid of the really big flanks?
Answer: Should I lose weight before BBL and fat transfer due to visceral fat? (photo) Hello dear! Thanks for the question and provided information as well. You should be as close to your goal weight as possible, before surgery, for best results. In general, you need to be physically healthy and at a stable weight, have realistic expectations, be a non-smoker and your BMI needs to be 30 or less. l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know. Good luck :)

Answer: Wait till you lose weight Hello, thanks for your question:I definitely recommend that you lose as much weight as possible, this will ensure a much better result and most importantly, a safer surgery. It is not wise to determine the type of surgery you need before you lose the weight. The ideal is that once you have reached your goal (BMI of less than 30 at least), you are consulted again to determine if skin will be in a good condition to handle liposuction or if you need a skin resection and tightening surgery. However, at least in the abdomen, you are already a candidate for a tummy tuck. Hope this helps
