I got BBL in Feb 2019. I'm fully healed & not happy with the size or shape of my bum. I wanted a completely natural look with nice smooth curves & more emphasis on hips over bum. I didn't want a "Nicki Minaj" look. You can see from my pics it looks more like I have implants/my bum is "stuck on" and doesn't match the size of my legs. I have pockets of fat under both bum cheeks that you can see really badly from the side profile. Is it possible to make my bum smaller &improve my shape?

Answer: BBL revision Hello and thank you for the question and the photos. What you are describing is called the "Tombstone" deformity. Too much fat was injected in the high upper buttock. This area is easier to fill than the lateral hip and too often we see results where the fat is put too high. The correction involves liposuctioning from the upper butt and flanks, then reinject the fat in the lower butt and hips. Since it's been over a year, you can proceed as most of the healing has already occurred. One of the best advances in BBL has been the advent of S.A.F.E. and E.V.L. This stands for " separation. aspiration. fat equalization" This is a methodical approach to liposuction using the PAL ( power assisted liposuction device ) and a basket tip cannula. The fat is then reinjected using the EVL ( expansion vibration lipofilling ) method. Combined, it leads to the best overall outcomes regarding BBL in my experience.
