Is a BBL risky with Spina Bifida Occulta? (Photo)

Hello, thank you for your question. I recommend that you discuss this through email Skype or in-person with a board certified plastic surgeon for proper evaluation. Spinal bifida comes in many forms; you do not want to run the risk of damaging nerves.

Dear HotPotato98,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

I don’t think you have spina bifida occulta.

To location of your dimple or pit is more consistent with a pilonidal cyst.

I don’t believe your spinal cord will be threatened by the procedure but you should discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
