Can I get a BBL reversal and have as much fat removed as possible?

Question

I had a bbl done in July 2020. I specifically asked only for hips because I already had a big butt. 600cc was injected into each buttocks. WAY too much than my skin can handle. It stretched it out. When I sit the fat goes to the sides and upwards. If I walk, jump or run my butt jumps and moves with me. It's atrocious. How can I reverse the bbl and get as much fat removed as possible ? How much fat can I remove without having a saggy buttocks after ?

Dear shiraziabenhaim,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Yes but very few PSs have experience in buttock fat reduction lipo. Fees in $8,000-$10,000 ranges. I also use a specialized postoperative taping that help conform the buttock. Yes it is a risky surgery to gain the outcomes desired but it is the only method that helps.

You would benefit from a BBL revision. Unfortunately, depending on how much fat is removed, there may be redundant skin that requires a cut. I encourage you to consult an expert in VASER liposuction, as this is the key modality for revisions. The definitive correction for liposuction deformities requires the advanced technology of ultrasound assisted VASER liposuction. As an official trainer of VASER liposuction, I encounter suboptimal liposuction outcome referrals weekly. VASER liposuction has been the only modality that has consistently corrected liposuction caused deformities. VASER liposuction ensures a smooth contour regardless of severity of contour irregularities by virtue of being able to remove any and all remaining fat comprehensively and uniformly. Finally, when skin redundancy irregularities are observed, Renuvion technology can be simultaneously applied to tighten your skin to optimize your overall contour outcome. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

I suggest posting before and after pictures if you want us to make an assessment on the outcome of a procedure. Talk to your provider. Here she is responsible for the outcome of your procedure and is the correct person to do your revision.

Liposuction can remove fat from the buttocks and though it cannot differentiate removing grafted versus native fat.
