Can my bbl asymmetry/blowout be fixed? (photo)

These revision surgeries after a previous BBL can prove challenging.  Without viewing before and after photos or knowing how much fat was injected, it is difficult to provide specific reasons for your results.  Recovery from lipo and BBL is patient dependent. Much of this depends upon the surgeon's technique, the amount of liposuction performed, and the amount of fat transferred. A revision implies that scar tissue will make the surgery much more difficult on the revision surgeon. Recommend that you wait six months before scheduling your revision with the PS who performed your procedures.

It is always unpredictable when it comes to survival of fat grafts, volume and shape wise. One has to wait at least 6-8 months, possibly longer, to determine whether additional correction may be needed. In your case I would wait at least few months before correction; this should include both liposuction and fat grafting of areas in question. Good luck.

Dear  purpf152,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment. Only after thorough examination you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Hello purp. Yes, a revision must be perform but I recommend you to wait at least 8 to 9 month, this will allow to see the final results of the fat remaining and the disappearance of inflamation.28 year experienceAmerican Society of Plastic SurgeonsPractice in Dom. Rep.

Hi and welcome to our forum!A portion of fatty tissue has herniated through the existing soft tissue, creating a "mound" of localized fatty tissue excess. This phenomenon responds well to small cannula liposuction of the lump. Soft tissue indentation irregularities may respond to lipoinjection but the result may be incomplete. Compression is important in the postoperative period. Several procedures may be required. 15% of cosmetic surgeries require a secondary procedure.Best wishes...

Thank you for your question. Based on your photo, a revision to the back area is warranted to give you a better contour. I believe your surgeon has the correct procedure in mind. Best of luck with your touchup procedure.

I think that's exactly the right procedure to do.  I've had to do this before and it's worked well for me.  But you have to keep pressure on that area for prolonged period of time. Be patient and be persistent.

These issues can be resolved using high definition VASER liposuction. The definitive correction for liposuction deformities requires the advanced technology of ultrasound assisted VASER liposuction. As an official trainer of VASER liposuction, I encounter suboptimal liposuction outcome referrals weekly. VASER liposuction has been the only modality that has consistently corrected liposuction caused deformities. VASER liposuction ensures a smooth contour regardless of severity of contour irregularities by virtue of being able to remove any and all remaining fat comprehensively and uniformly. Finally, when skin redundancy irregularities are observed, Renuvion technology can be simultaneously applied to tighten your skin to optimize your overall contour outcome. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

I have no idea what a blowout is from a BBL. The surgeon who did your procedure is the correct one to do your revision.The combination of liposuction and fat transfer seem very appropriate. Perhaps confirmation that you don’t have a fluid buildup or something other may be warranted. I have no idea about using a special tape but if your provider thinks this is the way to go then I suggest following his or her recommendations. I suggest trying to find better terminology to describe your condition.I simply don’t know what a blowout refers to.i’m guessing your surgeon came up with this term. You may want to ask your provider what it means.Best, Mats Hagstrom MD
