Uneven bottom after my second round - how can I correct this? (photos)

Question

I’m overall happy with my bbl except he made the bottom uneven after my round two. How can I correct this? Can I correct with sculptra?

Semih Yildiz, MD, FEBOPRAS · Answer

The rear-view photo shows some asymmetry along the lower buttock fold and lower contour, although an in-person exam would be needed to judge the cause. After a second BBL this can come from uneven fat survival, scar tethering, skin laxity, natural pelvic asymmetry, or how the surrounding areas were liposuctioned.

Sculptra may soften small shallow depressions, but it usually will not correct a true fold difference, loose skin, or a larger volume/shape mismatch by itself. Depending on the exam, options may include careful fat grafting, targeted liposuction/blending around the lower buttock, release of scar tethering, or occasionally skin-tightening/lifting procedures. It is best to wait until swelling and scar tissue have matured, often 6-12 months, before deciding on a revision plan.

Dear Intuitive997540,
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.

Hi! Thank you fro posting. Sculptra can definitely help make it more symmetrical, but i If there is too much difference as far as volume, a bit more fat might be necessary. A combination of minimal fat grafting with Sculptra would be good option as well.

Best of luck,

You have asked this before... Since you need virtual or in person detailed examination to see if you have any available fat to transfer, I offered my "COMPOSITE BBL" option..using any  fat + Sculptra/Radeisse injections. Fees from $8,000-$25,000 ( depends how many vials of the injections are used). Again best to seek in person or virtual consult with....

The human body is far from symmetrical.
To make an assessment on the outcome of an operation we need to see proper before and after pictures. For individuals who had more than one procedure we need to see before and after pictures of you procedure.
I need to know what you look like when you started.
Everybody has one gluteal side that’s different than the other both in regards to shape and size.
Nobody has body symmetry.
Having had two procedures it’s hard to make an assessment without having all pertinent information at our disposal.
I suggest you talk to your provider about doing a revision. Most likely reducing the larger side would be the way to go.
Perhaps you like the bigger side better in which case adding more fat to the smaller side could be an option.
The baseline asymmetry tends to be based on skeletal structure and fat distribution tends to be fairly symmetrical.
Your situation is a little complex to get a quality response based on your post.
Sculptra is probably not a realistic option 
Best,
