I have abnormally large love handles and a small butt. I'm extremely disproportionate and it absolutely affects my self-esteem to the point that I close my eyes if I get undressed in front of a mirror so I won't cry. I have already met with one surgeon that had BBLs on his website but when I got there he said he was not doing them anymore and that since my procedure would be major, I needed to reach out elsewhere. I'm in Arkansas and it's hard to find anybody here so I am open to travel.
Answer: Lipo BBL + Tummy Tuck all the way! You are a great candidate for a tummy tuck to remove the fat-skin excess and fix the belly for a flatter one. Lipo on the upper abdomen, Sides, upper-lower back with waist definition plus fat transfer to the buttocks and hip area BBL.

Answer: Am I a good candidate for Lipo 360 and BBL? Thanks for your question. A BBL requires 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. From you pictures, it seems you have excess skin in your abdominal and back area. If liposuction is performed, there will be more loose skin because the fat would be taken out by the liposuction. I suggest you schedule a consult for an evaluation and proper plastic surgery recommendation. Make sure your surgeon you choose has extensive plastic surgery experience and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: BBL vs Circumferential Abdominoplasty, Possible Staged Procedure I would say that your buttock contour could be improved in multiple ways. I agree that you could transfer some of the fat from your "love handle" area to the buttock with liposuction and fat transfer. However, this would not fix your overall abdominal and trunk contour. I would say that your best results would be from a staged procedure in which the first stage was liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, and back with fat injections to the buttock. This will likely leave you with remaining overhanging skin which can then be removed with a circumferential abdominoplasty to adequately contour the anterior abdomen and flanks. If you are traveling or can otherwise only undergo one procedure, I would favor a circumferential abdominoplasty utilizing a gluteal autoaugmentation from the lifted buttock tissue.

Answer: Am I a good candidate for Lipo 360 and BBL? Hello @lynnlove2244, thank you for your question. There is excess of skin in your abdomen so tummy tuck combined with liposculture 360 can give you the best results. A lipectomy to remove the excess of skin and tense abdomen muscles and liposculture as a body contouring procedure to define more your abdomen and waistline. Together, these procedures will give you a more defined and slim appearance. I would encourage you to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. During your consultation, your surgeon will be able to assess your unique needs and develop a treatment plan that is right for you. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Achieving shapely results You have a severe degree of saggy skin on your abdomen, saggy and thick lovehandles and saggy buttocks. You have also a very distinctive Scoliosis with the pelvic bone tilted which have caused an asymmetric buttocks and hips. So you are candidate for a Circumferential Tummy tuck to remove 360 excess of skin, muscle repair to achieve a smaller waist, liposuction and tightening of lovehandles, real buttocks lift, lipo to waist and Fat grafting (BBL) to add shape and volume to buttocks, hips and thighs. Be encouraged. Dr. Cárdenas
