Question

I want a bbl do you think you can give me close to the price just by off my weight?

Luis A. Mejia, MD · Answer

Hello, thanks for your question and provided information. There are many great board certified plastic surgeons that can help you to achieve your goals. The average cost for liposuction and bbl is between 3,000-3700 US$. 
Advantages:
One treatment may be all you need to reshape problem areas
Treat more areas—and larger areas—in one procedure
May be performed with either local or general anesthesia
More consistent and predictable result than noninvasive treatments
Liposuction, sometimes referred to as "lipo" by patients, slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits and improving your body contours and proportion.
Different areas of treatment:
Thighs
Hips and buttocks
Abdomen and waist
Upper arms
Back
Inner knee
Chest area
Cheeks, chin and neck
Calves and ankles
Liposuction can be performed alone or along with other plastic surgery procedures, such as a facelift, breast reduction or a tummy tuck.
What liposuction can do?
Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity or a substitute for proper diet and exercise.
It is also not an effective treatment for cellulite—the dimpled skin that typically appears on the thighs, hips and buttocks—or loose saggy skin.

Thank you for your question. Prices vary a lot according to experience and board certification of the plastic surgeon, facilities, quality of the practice, region, etc…  Best is to have a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in your area to get an idea on the price. If you're willing to travel medical tourism is an attractive way to get quality results at a lower price. Cosmetic surgery in Colombia represents an increasingly attractive option for consumers looking for the ultimate combination of quality, price, availability, service, enjoyment, and value. Prices for plastic surgery procedures can be very affordable, and often 30-50% less than in the United States and Europe. However, when considering this option don’t settle for less than a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

Dear tamesha_brown,the cost of surgery depends on a lot of factors (type of surgery, number of treated areas, anesthesia fee, surgeon, facility fee, city, etc.). It would be the best to visit or call plastic surgery offices and ask for a price. In LA area, BBL typically ranges from 8K-12K depending on how much liposuction needs to be done to get enough fat.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:

1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.

2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?
     
       3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
    
       4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

Using 5'3" as your height and 189 lbs as your weight, your BMI is in the obese range.  Losing 30 pounds would enhance results and lessen the risk of complications during and after surgery. When you have reached your stable weight goal, a virtual or in office consultation can give you the cost information based upon the areas liposuctioned and your ultimate goals for the BBL.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Thanks for your question. The cost of BBL varies depending on the region and surgeon. I recommend that you choose your surgeon based on trust, experience, credentials...and not solely on cost.  There are many great surgeons out there but most importantly make sure that your surgeon is board certified in plastic surgery and has extensive experience performing BBL. Best of luck!

Thank you for your inquiry. As you may already know, the Brazilian Butt Lift procedure involves fat elimination through liposuction from several areas of the body such as the hips, abdomen, back and thighs which is then transferred to the buttocks. I believe your results a
re achievable. However, the best BBL surgeons will not promise to deliver results they can’t guarantee; therefore, it is best to schedule a consultation with a highly trained cosmetic surgeon before determining your results.

I hope this answers your question and good luck.
