Answer: Brazilian Butt Lift These can be done together or separately. By removing fat with liposuction, the loose skin on the abdomen can become worse making a tummy tuck even more necessary. The recovery is more difficult by combining the procedures due to positioning. You'll want to talk to your PCP about tight glucose control after the procedure.

Answer: It's whatever is best for you! This question comes up all the time. When I tell my patients is that it really depends on what is best for you. If you have a little bit of fat only, and need it all to achieve a BBL goal, then you should do your BBL first, and not remove the fat from the lower abdomen with a tummy tuck yet. If you have enough fat, even after a tummy tuck, then doing the tummy tuck first may be a good option as well. The benefit of doing the tummy tuck first is that you will have an improvement in your shape and aesthetically you will look much better especially from the front view. Then you can follow with a BBL and look even better. If you do the BBL first, your tummy will not be aesthetically pleasing because of the extra skin until you complete your tummy tuck. Some patients do not want their abdomens to look like they have a lot of extra skin with contour irregularities while they wait for another procedure… hope this helps!
