I'm currently about to give birth in two months to my third child. And I'm looking to lose weight as soon as I'm able to. I want to have the BBL sx in March so how much weight I need to lose is the question. So I need to know what is he highest BMI accepted for the BBL sx? I was 211 at 5'2 before my pregnancy. Looking at few doctors now like Dr. McAdoo And other Miami doctors as well as doctors in and around Chicago
Answer: BMI and surgery, some advices: Thank you very much for this interesting and important question.Trying to lose weight before a surgical procedure its a very delicate matter, since in many cases a restrictive diet can cause problems, such as anemia, electrolyte disturbances, decreased protein, etc ... retarding the healing process and damaging the surgery.For these reasons, if your purpose is to lose weight, i recommend you have a BMI less or equal to 30.In this regard, you must to have a support with a nutritionist, so you can achieve the desired goal, in the most healthy way, without incressing complications risks in the plastic surgery to perform.Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-

Answer: Surgery and your BMI There is no absolute BMI that makes you a surgical candidate or not. A higher BMI is related to higher risks, including pulmonary embolism, which can be fatal. Many plastic surgeons use a BMI of 30 as approaching the danger zone. This is not an absolute cut off number, but given other factors, a plastic surgeon may determine that a lower or slightly higher BMI on a given patient may carry acceptable risks.

Answer: BMI and BBL The BMI is a general guideline and predictor of dangerous complications and of disappointing results. While we prefer to operate on women above 30, there is NO doubt that better and safer results are much more likely in women with much lower BMIs.That being said, it sounds like you have a lot of things on your plate. I would put as much time between your last baby and ANY body contouring surgery (be it Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, a combination or BBL). The more you are stable at your baseline, the better you and your surgeon can decide what procedure or sequence of operations is most likely to give you the best possible result. Please consider that a flat tummy and a well defined butt can be achieved with a Tummy Tuck and back Liposulpture without the need for BBL (nor the recovery of a BBL).Dr. Peter A. AldeaMemphis, TN
