Hello, I am 5'4 and weigh 170. I am planning to have a BBL early 2017. I was 185 and slowly im reaching my goal of 150. I feel conflicted as I want to loose the remaining 20lbs to have a tiny waist but I also want to have enough for a rather big transfer to my butt. Should I drop some now weight now or wait until after?
Answer: Weight and surgery, some advices: Thank you very much for this interesting and important question.Trying to lose weight before a surgical procedure its a very delicate matter, since in many cases a restrictive diet can cause problems, such as anemia, electrolyte disturbances, decreased protein, etc ... retarding the healing process and damaging the surgery.For these reasons, if your purpose is to lose weight, i recommend you have a BMI less or equal to 30.In this regard, you must to have a support with a nutritionist, so you can achieve the desired goal, in the most healthy way, without incressing complications risks in the plastic surgery to perform.Kind regards

Answer: Weight and BBL Its a slippery slope, because you need fat to harvest. If you go on to lose weight now, you may not have enough fat to give you a nice BBL. If you lose weight after surgery, then your butt may shrink.

Answer: BBL Thank you for your question and photographs.It is highly recommended for patients to have a BMI of 30 or less before undergoing elective surgery and yours is slightly under that. I usually recommend that my patients remain at their goal weight for at least 6 months before having surgery done but I would discuss this with your surgeon and see what they recommend for optimal results. Best of luck!Sincerely,
