I have a BMI of 18, can I get a BBL?

From both your photos and listed measurements/weight, you are thinner than the typical BBL patient (BMI 18). You should be very proud, as you are excellent shape. However, the success of this procedure is inextricably tied to the available areas of fat excess for harvest.You have limited donor sites for transfer. This does not mean the procedure is contraindicated in someone like yourself. Yet it is unlikely you could achieve a dramatic result even if aggressive contouring of 5 areas was performed.Being thin will limit your volume result as well as place you at greater risk of contour irregularities if an overly aggressive harvest is performed.Ultimately, if you are willing to accept a more limited result you are a reasonable candidate. A more realistic approach might be to prioritize the liposuction and contouring of your projected donor sites and view the augmentation as a fringe benefit.
As always, consult with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Thank you for your question. Based on your photo you appear to be a good candidate for this procedure. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.
Kind regards,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Ideal candidates are at a stable weight,  in good health , and have excess fat in some parts of the body and too little in other regions.  Gaining weight before the procedure is to no advantage and when you lose weight again the fat cells will shrink just like the donor site fat cells.  Typically, the transferred fat results in a significant increase in volume of the body site being treated.
