Lipo, lipo revision and BBL - need advice on procedures sequence? (Photos)

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. You are certainly a good candidate for revision liposuction and thigh liposuction. The amount of fat grafting to the buttock that is possible will depend on the available fat. An in person evaluation can be helpful to determine your options. I hope this helps.

Thanks for the question. I recommend you waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour. I suggested take the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and hips, to mold them and get better volume, contour and butt projection, is that we know as "Brazilian Butt Lift" (BBL).

Kind regards

Based on these photos, I see no reason why should you do liposuction and fat transfer in stages; it is quite reasonable to have liposuction of all these areas done in a single surgery followed with fat transfer. However, very important step in this process is to find an experienced, board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in body contouring since this requires an expert. Good luck.

Dear yama987,
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.

Thanks for the dark exposed photos, it does help slightly. Only a boarded PS with revision experience should try to "fix" you, there are very few whom offer revision surgeries. Additionally I label you "Skinny BBL" patient, not enough fat to transfer. I think selective superficial liposuction of inner thighs, saddle bags or outer thighs, partial abdomen, etc areas to gain hopefully 1 liter of transferrable fat along with 10-20 vials of Sculptra injections are needed. ThisI term, "COMPOSITE BBL". Fees in the $15,000-$25,000 ranges, because of the costs of Scuptra. Hope this helps.

Sounds like what you need is to find the most qualified provider in your community.

Let plastic surgeons come up with a treatment plan for you rather than trying to reinvent the wheel yourself.

If you’re unhappy with the surgeon who did the work for you before then find a new one and do that by having multiple in person consultations.

The surgeon is the one who’s going to do the work so they can put together a plan of action for you.

Liposuction is a permanent and more or less irreversible procedure. Correcting previously poorly done Liposuction is much more difficult than primary procedures and primary procedures are more difficult than most people believe.

Find the range plastic surgeon and everything falls into place.

Best,
