Fat transfer after gasteric sleeve? (Photo)

cchapman6
Hello, I am 25 and had gasteric sleeve June of 2014. I am currently 220 and 5'5. I really would like to get fat transfer to my butt for a bbl but I'm having a problem getting a plastic surgeon to do it. I have went to two and both said I am not a good candidate and couldn't really explain why. I'm trying to understand if it is my surgery that prevents this or am I too large for the surgery? Also if I'm not able to do fat transfer ever can someone tell me my other options for a larger butt?
