Is there anyone that is about this size that has had the BBL done that can show some before and after pictures and are you happy with your results?
Answer: HIGHER RISK OF COMPLICATIONS WHEN YOUR BODY MASS INDEX INCREASES. Hello uniqu31, I appreciate your questions! I would recommend asking your plastic surgeon if he/she requires you to lose weight depending on whether he/she is planning to do a full body Liposuction or just a limited Liposuction to harvest the fat. Have in mind that there are limits to the amount of fat that can be safely removed. Based on the information you’ve shared about height and weight, your current Body Mass Index (BMI) estimate of 35.4 surpasses the ideal range recommended for a successful BBL surgery and recovery. The higher your weight or your BMI are, the greater the risk for anesthetic and surgical complications such as wound dehiscence, venous thromboembolism, and infection, among others. During the first meeting with your surgeon, you will have the opportunity to discuss your cosmetic goals and, usually, he/she will show you before-and-after photos of similar cases and answer any questions. Best regards! Dr. De La Cruz.

Answer: Brazilian Butt Lift A good candidate has enough fat available for transfer in the procedure. The amount of fat that can be transferred in a BBL depends on how much fat the patient has to harvest and the amount of space there is to move the fat into. It is recommended for the patient to have a BMI of 30 or less. If you are too thin, a Brazilian Butt Lift may not be possible.

Answer: I am 5'3" and weighs 200 lbs. Is this too big to have the BBL done? Losing a bit of weight can reduce the risk for complications with surgery, and enhance results; but BMI is just one measure of your fitness for surgery. Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Brazilian butt lift candidate? Thank you for your question. Basically the closer you are to your goal weight the better your results will be. High BMI poses high surgical risk and reduces the likelihood you will receive optimal cosmetic results. Best is to have a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Don't settle for less.
