BBL and genetics - would any of the fat survive or would implants be the better option for me?

Dear Honeysuckle91,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Thanks for your question. It is difficult to provide you with a proper evaluation without pictures. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure the surgeon you choose has extensive experience with BBLs / butt implants and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Moises Salama MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Hello @Honeysuckle91, thank you for your question. Depending on the surgical technique and approach the fat that would surviver could be 80% more or less. It is important, however, to carefully examine your case, to have a consultation, and to consider factors such as your body features, age, needs, and expectations. The more technology used, the more quickly the tissues recover however it is important the expertise of the surgeon using this technology. Best wishes! Alana Gonzalez MD, FACS.
