Looking for a plastic surgeon who can snatch my waist -- any suggestions? (Photos)

Hello. Congratulations on losing that weight, it will really make a difference! You are a great candidate for a TT, but you probably already heard that from every surgeon. Plus, you really do have good bone structure for "waist snatching". I can see that you have a small waist underneath, with good hips. A tt with muscle repair will get rid of the excess skin and will tighten and flatten you tummy as well as tightening your waist and making it smaller. But that alone isn't enough. We obviously need liposuction to get rid of the excess fat. Even though you are not overweight, there are still areas that will benefit from liposuction....especially your flanks and waist. Liposuction on your back and love-handles will also help compliment it all, and make your waist even smaller. Part of what makes the waist look smaller is the waist to hip ratio. This is enhanced by liposuction on the waist and fat grafting to the hips. This does not have to be done in exaggeration unless that is your goal. But in most cases, just enough fat grafting to round out the shape of the hips, is enough for an enhanced waist to hip ratio that makes the waist look really snatched. Best of luck on your procedure !Dr. Miguel Mota

Snatched is a term that I have recently heard in my office. While the term is new the goals of the liposculpting and Brazilian Butt Lift are not.  The vast majority of my patients want to have have a tiny (snatched) waist and a perkier, more full butt and hips.
In the Brazilian Butt Lift the combination of the liposculpting and fat transfer is what leads to the figure transformation.  In this transformation, my patients can go from square to an hourglass figure.  The smaller the waist the better the hips and butt will appear. 

The snatched waist comes from the liposuction.  I turn all my patients on each side.  This gives me direct access to the love handles as this key in terms of making the waist as small as possible.  This liposculpting will not only make the waist tiny it will give us good fat that we can use to fill the hip dip and butt.  This combination will give patients more of the “s” curve that they desire for their overall shape.

The first step in a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is the liposuction.  I think people often forget how import this part is in making the overall figure as sexy as possible.  The liposuction during a BBL is not only for harvesting fat to fill the hip dips and butt, it is used to shape and sculpt the waist.  The are of a Brazilian Butt Lift is in the combination of the liposculpting and the butt enhancement with he fat transfer.

Please discuss your Brazilian Butt Lift with your Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon so that they can discuss the surgery and the results that are possible from the procedure.  

Wow, you look like just about the most ideal candidate for a tummy tuck with muscle tightening. I would recommend that you do your research by looking at before and after photos of patients with bodies like yours. Find a surgeon with a gallery full of excellent after results and you will have more assurance that yours will be excellent as well. Good luck on your journey!
All the best,

Based on your pictures you seem to be a great candidate for liposuction of your sides and a tummy tuck, always see a board certified PS.

You are an excellent
candidate for an abdominoplasty.  The
cost is approximately $8,000.  It does
not appear that you need liposuction at this time.  Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Thank you for pictures.  You appear to be a excellent candidate for a tummy tuck.  Your result is obviously dependent on the surgeon's skill but your anatomy has a lot to do with the final result.  You will have to sit down with your surgeon and go over your expectations to see if a "snatched' waist is achievable versus a very good result.  Best wishes
