Have a butt, but no hips: should I get a mini or full Brazilian Butt Lift? (photo)

Hi, thank you for sharing your question. If you desire more volume in your hips and don’t want to fat graft your butt, then you can certainly tailor this procedure to your goals. An in-person evaluation with a board certified plastic surgeon may be needed to give you the best answer.

Thank you for your question and photos. From your photos, you are a good candidate for BBL. Liposuction will remove excess fat from unwanted areas creating a shape that accentuates your hips & buttocks. Fat transfer to your hips & buttocks will bring out your curves, increase volume in your buttocks and improve shape. Your expectations and health will dictate the best procedure(s) for you. I suggest a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to go over the options that best address your goals. Best of luck!

Thank you for your question, based on the pictures you appear to be good candidate for this procedure. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Thank you for your question and pictures. you are a good candidate for a liposuction with a mini BBL. If you're willing to travel, Surgeons in the Dominican Republic have experience and very high standard of excellence when it comes to plastic surgery. I'm positive you can get what you're looking for

Dear Genuine106496,
based on your photos, you look like a good candidate for a BBL. Liposuction of your abdomen, back and flanks should give you more curves and hourglass shape and fat transfer to buttocks and hips should give you more projection. I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon because only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

I agree you need a lipo 360 with a "lateral BBL or hip dip BBL. Best to seek in person or virtual consultations with private practice boarded PSs. Fees in the $6,500 ranges +/-.

Based on your pictures, you are an excellent candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size, shape, and projection you are desiring. The optimal BBL 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. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.

To make an assessment based on pictures we need to see standard quality pictures. These pictures should be taken by someone else or using the timer on your camera from about 8 feet away showing your front, side and back standing in a neutral position.

Your picture shows you have an excellent S-curve without the need for surgical intervention.

If you want to add volume to certain areas then you certainly can. To learn more about surgical procedures and get a more accurate assessment I suggest scheduling multiple in person consultations with local board-certified plastic surgeons who have extensive experience with Liposuction and fat transfer.

Delivering consistent high-quality Liposuction and a fat transfer results is more difficult than people believe.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance of choosing the most experienced and talented providers for these procedures.

Do so by scheduling multiple in person consultations. choose providers based on who has the greatest number of impressive before and after pictures combined with the least number of justified negative reviews on various physician review websites.

Best,
