I have these dents that are visible through clothes after my BBL. Would a revision help this? (Photo)

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. A proper evaluation in person is best but based on this picture alone, revision fat grafting may help.

Although nude photos would be better to appreciate your concern, i can tell you that you are in good company with many others who had high hopes for BBL but instead received disappointing results (lumpiness, unevenness, lack of projection in the central and/or lower buttock, post-deflation sagging, etc.) as most of the fat melts away. It is not quite as much the quality of the doctor nor liposuction technique but rather the quality of the procedure that is a large part of the problem. Thus, going back for round 2 BBL most often produces the same disappointing results but at another financial loss. Buttock implants indeed provide a more reliable, predictable, relatively safe, and permanent result, especially for adding projection to the buttock and often smoothing out lumpiness. Occasionally a lower buttock tuck may be advantageous for lower buttock fold asymmetries and/or sagging. Please keep in mind that an extremely few number of board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in buttock implants so be sure to consult with one that is reputable and experienced. Unfortunately you may have to travel long and far away from home to find this particular surgeon. Glad to help.

Dear Ay9210,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

We really need your naked before photos and your present unclothed photos to better evaluate your issues. A revision BBL should help with the dents.

It is very difficult to assess your dents unless you have a formal consultation. Please consider a virtual consultation from a high definition BBL specialist so that you can have a proper evaluation and so that you can be provided a formal plan to fix your concern areas.

To make an assessment on the outcome of a procedure we need to see proper before and after pictures.

Seeing pictures with you in clothing really doesn’t help at all.

We also need to see comparison to what you look like before the procedure.

If you don’t have your before and after pictures to ask your surgeon to forward the ones they took.

That’s also the correct person to discuss your concerns with.

Follow up with your provider and have him or her address your concerns.

Nobody can give you a quality answer based on such limited information.

Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
