5’8 188lbs. I had a TT w/ MR in 2017. I chose not to get lipo, I was at my heaviest at 237lbs. I’ve since lost weight, but can’t loose my flank or back fat. I want lipo of the flanks, back and inner thigh area. I am interested in a BBL but don’t want a huge bottom but more projection and possibly more roundness. Will lipo alone help carve out my bottom or do I need the BBL. I have had 3 consults all with almost different responses. I just want my back to Match my front.
Answer: Lipo with BBL Thank you for your question and pictures. you are a good candidate for a liposuction with BBL. If you're willing to travel, Surgeons in the Dominican Republic have experience and very high standard of excellence when it comes to plastic surgery. I'm positive you can get what you're looking for

Answer: Personal decision Hello and thank you for your question. The answer ultimately comes down to what is most important to you and weighing the risks and benefits of liposuction alone versus liposuction with fat grafting. I think you would notice a dramatic difference with liposuction to the flanks and back alone, and it would provide you with a smaller waistline and accentuate your hips as well. With your waist being smaller your waist to hip ratio would be improved. Because I perform the procedure with safety as a top priority, I feel comfortable suggesting fat grafting to the buttocks and/or hips in almost all of my liposuction patients as it is such a wonderful surgery to recontour the body and use your own fat where you need it. You could have increased projection and a rounder shape by placing a modest amount of fat on the outer mid and upper portions of your buttocks. There is increased surgical risk with fat grafting, as well as more discomfort postoperatively, and potentially more cost as well. You should discuss these pros and cons with a board certified plastic surgeon. It ultimately comes down to your goals and what is safe and reasonable. Best of luck.

Answer: Lipo and BBL You will be wonderful candidate for liposuction to waist, flanks upper and lower back and use some of that fat to tranfer to buttocks and hips in order to add some curves. You have left some extra skin (dog ears) both sides of the Tummy tuck incision and it will get more obvious after liposuction, so just need a little extension of the incision. Be encouraged.

Answer: BBL Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are a great candidate for 360 Liposuction with BBL, however, the addition of the BBL is a personal choice and will depend on whether you are happy with you current buttock volume. It seems to be slightly deflated and in my opinion may benefit from additional volume. A proper exam by a board certified plastic surgeon will help give you options and answers. I hope this helps.
