Skinny BBL with no results - 6 weeks out.

Question

I am very tiny (5’3 107 pounds) and had a bbl lipo done 6 weeks ago. I was told there would be definite projection and it would fill in the flat spots on my side and top of my butt (have always had the definition at bottom). After all of the swelling went away butt is still very flat and now caving in. Am I too skinny for a second bbl? Is there anything that can be done?

Thank you for your question.
 Too early to judge on the final result. You are still at the healing stage. The area in your lower back will be still bruised and swollen and this will take 8-12 weeks to settle. Wear your garment and keep your follow up with your surgeon.

Richard Hainer, MD · Answer

based on your history and photographs it appears that you simply do not have enough donor fat to make a significant volume difference to your buttocks. Your other option would be to have buttock augmentation using silicone implants. It is essential you seek out a well-trained board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with buttock  implants in order for you to achieve your expectations. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Dear bblunhappy,it is hard to tell for sure without an examination but there might still be some options left for you. 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.Daniel Barrett, MD
