Will a Brazilian butt lift correct a banana roll? (Photos)

Question

I exercise 5 days a week, I'm in great shape, I'm happy with the shape of my butt and have even learned to accept the cellulite but I despise the roll under my right butt cheek, will having a Brazilian butt lift correct that roll?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Based upon your photos, to give the absolute best contour, you would need a tiny amount of liposuction performed very carefully to avoid skin laxity below the area of the banana roll to blend the area, a small amount of fat grafting to the current banana roll area. This can be coupled with InMode RFAL skin tightening. The procedure combines different clinically proven modalities (radio frequency energy, deep tissue heating and suction coupled negative pressure) to distribute heat to the skin and underlying fat, causing the tissues to contract. Weekly sessions over an eight week period are recommended, but improvement is likely seen after the first few sessions.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Hello dear!! 
  
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.  
  
The fat transfer, often called Brazilian butt lift has become 
extremely popular because it allows your plastic surgeon to transform 
your entire shape. You improve your waist, hips and of course your 
buttock, to give you a beautiful heart shape.I believe that the area you don't like on your buttocks can improve significantly. 
In order to have this procedure done is necessary an evaluation to 
determinate the areas that will be liposuctioned and discuss the amount 
of fat that will be harvested depending your fat deposits. 
I recommend you to make an appointment with a board plastic surgeon for a good evaluation and to talk about your goals. 
  
Good luck :)

Hi, thanks for sharing your concern and photos with us!
Looking at your photos I might say that you´ll be a great candidate to get a BBL, it will help you to achieve a very nice shape. If you are refering to the extra skin bellow you buttock that can be gone with a little lipo as well. 
Before all this, of course, you need to get a complete medical evaluation and laboratory exams to check everything is fine. Also please try to find a board certified plastic surgeon, remember that your safety, always, is going to be first.
  
Have a great day!

Thanks for sending your pictures.  BBL will augment the volume of the upper buttock and give you curves.  It does not augment the areas under the buttock.  But in your case liposuction of those problem areas can help in correcting the contour of the thighs. Good luck and I hope you found this to be useful.

That's a good question! The area below the buttock fold is referred to as a banana roll when it appears as a separate area of fullness. The tendency is to have it removed but this masculizes the butt. therefore, adding fat grafts to the gluteal fold will work to smooth the fold and appear to lift the butt at the same time. It looks like you'd be a good candidate for this as it requires good skin elasticity. See your board certified plastic surgeon if you want to know more.
