Can I still get a tummy tuck and bbl
Answer: BMI of 40 You **can** get a BBL and tummy tuck, but your results will not be anywhere near as good as if your BMI were under 30. As well, there are increased risks of infection, wound healing problems, and others. I would recommend trying to lose weight prior, and if you absolutely cannot, then you can consider having the surgery done, as long as you know the limitations and risks.Best of luck!Dr. SubbioBoard-Certified Plastic SurgeonNewtown Square/Philadelphia, PA

Answer: BBL & BMI I would encourage you to have a discussion with your board certified plastic surgeon on what the ideal weight would be for a safe surgical procedure. I prefer to do surgery on patients with a BMI of 30 or below to avoid the increased risk of complications during and after surgery. I advise my patients being at your ideal weight will give the best outcome. Best of luck.

Answer: Tummy tuck w/ bbl Hello and thank you for your question. The best way to start this process would be with an in-person consultation to fully evaluate you. There are no exact BMI number cut offs for this type of surgery. Some of this decision is based on your individual anatomy, medical history, and health status. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.Best wishes and good luck.Richard G. Reish, M.D.Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: BBL and tummy tuck Thank you for your question and posting a picture. Ideally, you should lose weight, however, like most this is quite difficult. After a lateral tension abdominoplasty tummy tuck you would likely lose 20-25 lbs after which you can have a BBL.
