Please help! I told my surgeon that I wanted a MASCULINE butt and even showed him pictures. I had BBL done before and it left me with feminine butt with long cheeks. I thought that a second BBL would fix this, but it made it worse! Now my butt-cheeks are so long and huge! I am so upset and look like a man with a woman's lower body. How can I fix this? I want a shorter rounder male butt. What procedure can get me to my wish pic? I included pics of before any BBL, after BBL 1, & BBL 2.
Answer: BBL results Dear maxsj, I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Answer: Unfortunate mail BBL outcome Male aesthetic surgery is far less common than doing cosmetic surgery on women. Despite media claims that more men are having cosmetic surgery that simply is not true. with the exception of gynecomastia surgery only about 5% of the patients I see are male patients for body contouring. Of those the majority want liposuction of their abdomen or chest. Personally I believe the male BBL is a highly underrated procedure that should be done far more often than it is requested for. You are absolutely correct that there is a major difference and one at Aesthetic ideal mail buttocks should look like and it is very different than women’s buttocks. let’s begin with the torso which also should be treated differently. In women the goal is to bring in the waist as much as possible to create feminine curves. On the male torso the goal is not to bring in the waste but to completely illuminate the love handles just below the waist. and man it’s also very important to continue Liposuction up from the side of the abdomen all the way up into the armpit to create clear definition and remove all the fat between the pectoralis and latissimus muscle as part of abdominal liposuction. In regards to the buttocks the biggest difference on a male and female bottom is that men never have lateral fat. no fat should be put in the hip dips or the sides of the buttocks. To get an idea of the changes you need to masculinize your out, I suggest looking for pictures of ideal male torso images in similar angles and positions as pictures of yourself. You should be able to transpose or compare side to side the curves in contours of the ideal image then take a pencil and mark off the areas that needs to be altered. In your case it’s mostly going to be areas that need to be reduced or where you need liposuction. i’m curious if your second BB I was done by the same surgeon? if so then the results make sense because I feel that provider inherently lacks experience but does not understand the concept of male aesthetics. if the second procedure was done by a different provider it’s hard to imagine two surgeons getting it wrong twice. It’s possible you’re a case is much more difficult and challenging than what it looks like on pictures but based on what you’ve presented this should not be that difficult to reverse/correct or get to look the way you had anticipated. One looking at ideal mail torso images think Leonardo de Vinci‘s David look carefully at the transition from the chest to the mid abdomen and the lower abdomen to the buttocks and compare that to your own and see if you can identify the differences and what needs to be adjusted. The following is a general pre-written composition with information for people interested in having a BBL to help steer them in the right direction especially when it comes to finding the correct provider. Perhaps you’ll find some of a useful. Delivering consistent high-quality liposuction and fat transfer results is more difficult than most people believe in this is true for both patients and plastic surgeons. Most plastic surgeons think they are better at liposuction than they actually are. Liposuction and fat transfer has more variance or difference in outcome purely based on who does the procedure than any other surgical procedure I’ve ever seen. Being board-certified in plastic surgery with an overall good reputation is not sufficient to guarantee that somebody has mastered body contouring with liposuction and fat transfer. Personally I view the torso as a single anatomic unit and either treated the entire torso or don’t do Liposuction. There are of course exceptions but for the most part I believe in treating the entire torso. A full torso includes upper abdomen, lower abdomen, love handles all the way down to the hip dips, waist, the entire back and under arm area all the way to the side of the breast. this leaves people with a natural thin fat distribution without transition zones between treated and entrteded areas. I’ve viewed the BBL as an enhancement to body contouring creating an ideal feminine S-curve that goes from the armpit to the knee. I did not emphasize a large buttocks with liposuction of the outer thigh creating a big round butt on the small leg which I sometimes called the “lollipop look”. Instead I emphasize long smooth harmonious curves creating a slightly hyper feminized balanced figure. To find the most talented and experienced provider in your community I suggest having multiple in person consultations. I do not recommend patients travel for elective surgical procedures and I recommend patients whenever possible avoid virtual consultations. During in person consultations ask each provider to show their entire collection of before and after pictures of BBL results. Always confirm that after pictures were taken at least three months from the time of surgery. anybody who shows early postoperative pictures such as pictures with patients still showing surgical drawings on them, being in the operating room or any evidence of recently having had surgery should be immediately discounted as showing “.fake news”. Early fat transfer results can look very impressive but do not at all represent final results. Ask the provider to show you examples of excellent outcomes, average outcomes and less than outcomes. Specifically ask each provider to show as many pictures as possible‘s of patients who have similar body characteristics to your own. An experienced provider should have no difficulty showing you a minimum of 50+ sets of before and after pictures. Simply seeing a handful of pre-selected sample pictures which in reality most likely represent the best results of that providers career is insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like for that provider. Highly experienced providers will have hundreds or even thousands of before and after pictures and should be willing to give you access during the consultation to see as many pictures as possible. If somebody claims to of done a lot of surgery but doesn’t have a lot of before and after pictures then you should ask yourself why? Do not commit to surgery or pay a down payment during the time of consultation until you’ve finished all your consultations and have given yourself plenty of time to think about your decision. The results from these procedures are permanent and irreversible. When in doubt slow down and schedule more consultations. Finally I recommend patients read all reviews on all various physician review websites avoiding providers for any significant number of justified negative reviews. The absence of justified negative reviews is more important and more telling and having an abundance of positive reviews. Plastic surgeons with the biggest social media profiles are not necessarily any more talented than those who have no websites at all. Famous or likable does not equal talented. Find the right plastic surgeon and everything falls into place. Good luck, Mats Hagstrom MD
