I want to do a bbl my main focus is my hips I want more hips but someone online was saying that the fat that they put in your hips doesn’t last . Is this true ? I’m 5’7 130lbs so I don’t have much fat to work with I want to make sure I don’t do this procedure for nothing .

Answer: Does BBL results last in your hips? Thank you for your pictures and questions. I think that your assumptions about where the fat "lasts" and doesn't last are not accurate. The most important factor is how the fat is harvested, processed, and injector and that depends on your surgeon. You need to make sure you are choosing a plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Based on your photos, I would be concerned about the amount of donor fat that you would have available for harvest and discuss with your surgeon whether your goals are realistic.Hope this helps!Dallas R.

Answer: Fat last in hips? as long as the fat is grafted carefully and correctly you will get the highest survival rate possible. You don’t have a lot of fat but on the other hand you don’t need to use as much fat to get a significant shape change. As long as the fat is placed in the correct plane you will have survival.
