Would I be a good candidate for liposculpture?

Thanks for your question. It's hard to provide a proper evaluation without seeing pictures. I recommend scheduling a consult for a proper evaluation. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Dr. Moises Salama, board certified plastic surgeon.

Dear Magical30963,

Based on your description, you could be a good candidate for liposculpture. Your BMI is within a healthy range, and you've identified specific areas of concern where you have excess fat. Liposculpture can target these areas, removing unwanted fat and sculpting the body to enhance your natural contours.

Regarding your interest in a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the amount of fat required for transfer varies depending on the desired result. A physical examination would be needed to ascertain if you currently have enough fat for the procedure, or if gaining weight might be beneficial.

Remember, it's important to have a realistic understanding of what these procedures can achieve. Your body shape and tissue characteristics will significantly affect your results.

I recommend you to have a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. They can perform an in-person evaluation and guide you on the best way to achieve your desired results. They can also recommend that you gain more weight if necessary.

Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Hello @wabmct, thank you for your question. To make an informed recommendation, more information is needed. Many skinny women choose liposculture because it permits the decrease in an orderly manner of the body volumes to achieve a better silhouette. A consultation is vital to establishing a surgical plan that meets your needs, meets your expectations, and takes into account what is possible. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Hello! To achieve an hourglass shape and have enough fat for a BBL (buttock augmentation with fat), it is important to consider that if your BMI is 23.5 and you feel like you are lean, gaining 10 to 20 pounds could help you have enough fat for the procedure. Make sure you do it in a healthy way, increasing your calorie intake with nutritious foods.

Hi! Thanks for your inquiry.
There are a lot of patients with low BMIs who get amazing results. It all depends on what you're looking for and, of course, a good surgeon who can help you accomplish it.

Hi, thanks for your question. As you may know, it's not possible to answer your question without a pic. Not always is a good idea to gain weight to have a BBL, especially if you are slim. You can get volume with butt implants, that make natural and great results. Consult a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your goals. Good luck!

An in person evaluation is recommended to determine if you are a candidate. I encourage you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to discuss your goals. Contouring with liposuction may improve your trouble areas and give you an illusion of a more hour glass shape even if you do not have adequate fat to transfer.

In my experience the BMI is a great indicator or parameter for doing the procedures especially a liposuction, but having a lower BMI doesn’t necessarily means you can’t have a skinny liposuction and BBL, but you would require a virtual or in office consultation to really assess your specific case and yes you may require to gain some weight.

To provide any kind of recommendation will be good to see some body pictures first. Remember to visit a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.
