I'm 5'5 weighting at 115.5 pounds. If I'm not is there anything I can do to gain more body fat...yes body fat, I lift heavy and eat a lot but it's not working
Answer: Buttock contour improvement Hello Ethereal12,Thank you for your question and for sharing your photos. You have an excellent athletic build, but because you are in such great shape you likely will not have enough fat donor sites to place a significant volume of fat in order to augment your buttocks. If the boxy shape is what you are most unhappy about this may be improved with contouring the outer thigh and possibly the lower back with targeted liposuction to give the buttock a rounder appearance. Contouring alone can give the appearance of greater projection in some instances. And as a weight lifter, the combination of contouring with weekly squats can really give you a very nicely projected buttock. I would recommend meeting with a plastic surgeon to discuss your specific goals and options and together come up with a plan to achieve the results you desire.Best of luck!Dr. Rednam

Answer: Am I a candidate for a BBL or hip implants? Hi.. thank you for the question and photos... Evaluating your photos.. a Liposuction could be done with care, to extract and amount of fat to correct these Hip "dip".... But it would be to improve the shape... without large volume. If you are interested in the buttock volume... i suggest an implant. I do not indicate my patients to gain weight.

Answer: BBL Candidate? Based on your photos, I'm not sure you have enough excess fat to be a candidate for the BBL procedure. The amount of volume that can be added to your buttock will be limited by the amount of excess fat you have in your donor sites. The posterior flanks are a great reservoir of donor fat for the BBL procedure. The BBL procedure involves harvest fat from areas of your body where there is excess fat and injecting that fat carefully into the central zone of your buttock. In addition, it involves liposculpting the buttock to facilitate a more rounded look. The common donor sites for this procedure is your posterior waist/flanks, lateral thighs, back, waist, and anterior tummy. Please visit with a board certified plastic surgeon to learn more about your options.Dr. BasuHouston, TX
