Would I need a LBL & a BBL? I'm 27. I have no kids. I've lost 100+ lbs through diet & exercise. I am still at least 25 lbs from my goal weight. My backside has become so flat & lumpy since my weight loss. No matter how many squats I do, I don't seem to regain any of the round perkiness I had prior to my weight loss. Would I need a LBL & a BBL to achieve my wish pic? Is my wish pic a realistic result for me?

Answer: LBL vs BBL or both You appear to be a candidate for both procedures. It is probably adviseable to perform two seperate procedures to maximize your results and come as close to your wish picture as possible. You should be very proud of your weight loss to this point. If you wish to lose 25 more pounds, then it would be better to have liposuction and fat transfer to the buttock (BBL)before doing so. This may maximize volume and subsequent retention of the fat necessary to achieve the shape and size you are looking for. A lower body lift may then be required at a later date, to tighten up and smooth out any access skin. We perform a procedure called the Miami Mermaid Lift which attempts to address your issues in a single procedure. We actually use your excess skin to fill the buttock to create more consistent results

Answer: Body Lift Congratulations on your weight loss! I would do a circumferential body which would include your stomach. This would give you the best overall result. It is important that you get to your weight loss goal before having surgery. You could also do buttock fat grafting to give you more fullness. The picture showing your desired buttock is not a realistic result. This person has excellent skin tone and almost certainly has not had significant weight loss. Meet with a plastic surgeon who has experience doing this operation and they can discuss the procedure along with expectations. Good Luck!Timothy A. Janiga MD, FACS
