For girls with flat butts that are getting a BBL, is it easier to obtain a heart or a shelf booty?

Question

If I have an inverted butt, can I obtain a heart shape butt?

Emmanuel Mallol Cotes, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question. It is hard to provided with a valid medical opinion without photos.  I would suggest to be treated by board certificated plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.
Kind Regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Hello, thank you for the question.
Actually this depends on your body type, but usually patients get a more heart-shaped look.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.
Best of lucks.
Dr. Luis Mejia

Hello, thank you for your question. Fat transfer to buttocks will give you more volume and a heart shape. I would recommend you a consultation with a  certified plastic surgeon to discuss the best options for you.

Dear dowdakdoll96,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

It is difficult to answer your question without any photos or a consultation. If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

There are many variables that determine the outcome from the BBL procedure. The two fundamental most important variables are the patient’s inherent anatomy and the skill of the surgeon.
Wishing and choosing between fruit and heart shapes is fairly pointless rather than looking at what someone’s baseline anatomy is.
There are many other variables that are also important and probably more important then choosing your desired shape.
For example people with skin laxity have far less ability to get predictable shape changes and often simply develop Buck from this procedure.
Those who have cellulite will often see worsened cellulite. People who have a flat spot on their lower inner buttocks often see this as being persistent even after successful fat transfer.
Generally speaking those who have an ideal shape that simply lacking sized get the best outcomes.
Women with highly accentuated curvy bodies have a skeletal structure that is highly feminine and curved. Stacking excessive amounts of fat on a straight frame eventually starts looking exactly like what it is. for women who want exclusively posterior projection and have none to start with implants are probably more effective but this procedure comes with a fairly extensive list of highly undesirable possible outcomes.
Without posting pictures we can’t make an assessment and your question becomes theoretical.
There is no yes or no answer to your question.
Excessively dramatic but ignoring changes with fat transfer often end up looking like someone has had a surgical procedure.
I suggest reposting including proper pictures or having in person consultations.
Best,
