Can I get a BBL if I possibly have a small hernia? (Photo)

Dear porter._,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Generally speaking, it is possible to get BBl if you have hernia. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the pictures and provided information as well.
I dont think there will be a problem, actually you can get that corrected during surgery.
l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

Examination by a plastic surgeon and/or general surgeon should be able to diagnosis a umbilical/ belly button hernia.  Frequently hernias are repaired at the same time as a tummy tuck.  The hernia can be also be repaired during the same procedure as liposuction for the BBL.

Hello, thank you for your question. I think that hernias should be avoided. However, if you would like to  the hernia can be repair during the surgery. but the result for a BBL is really a function of how aggressively the surgeon will liposuction and transfer. Most patients get an immense benefit with maximal liposuction of the abdomen, sides, and back to obtain the smallest waist possible and then maximal fat transfer to the buttocks and hips. I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. 

Thanks for the question. 
In this regard, I recommend you waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour.
Finally, 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

An outie bellybutton is technically an umbilical hernia.Most plastic surgeons are probably comfortable doing abdominal liposuction with your very small umbilical hernia.Some may require or recommend having it corrected first.I would personally not have an issue doing Liposuction based on a small umbilical hernia. An umbilical hernia has zero impact on gluteal fat transfer.Best, Mats Hagstrom MD

Hello and thank you for the question! To be sure, it is always best to first consult with your primary physician and obtain their clearance before moving forward with surgery. If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
