Injury to butt 4 years ago - can I still get a Brazilian Butt Lift? (Photos)

Question

I fell on my butt Jan 2018 and since I’ve had tightness in my left butt cheek that’s gotten looser since the accident but it’s still present….. I’ve been to my doctor and had my nerves and muscles tested to see if it’s anything damaged but nothing.(which is great) I want a bbl but I’m scared to mess up anything or make the tightness worse. I have control of my butt muscles it’s just this tight/stiff feeling that’s concerning. Thanks for your advice in advance

Thank you for your question. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body from different angles. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Based only on these photos, you are good candidate for buttock augmentation/shaping with fat grafts and liposuction of abdomen, flanks and lower back. However, only on the basis of in person evaluation of the neuromuscular status of your gluteal area, one could recommend this procedure with more certainty. Good luck.

BBL needs to be done by a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon (look for ASPS logo) who is familiar with BBL's and has the right training and equipment including ultrasound to assist in making sure your transferred ends up in the right layer.  Adding fat correctly will loosen things up and add stem cells to the area.  I think you'd be ok.  Best Wishes!!

Dear Kind218082,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, you should be able to get BBL surgery 4 years after injury. 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 accurately.  But I doubt that the BBL procedure (which puts fat above your gluteal muscles) would affect your tightness issues   
I would also suggest some deep tissue massages in the buttocks area along with stretching. These may alleviate some of the tightness.
