Thank you for your question! The answer is dependent on your post surgical goal. If you are wanting a very large, augmented butt, and have a very thin frame, with not much fat to transfer, an alternative option would be gluteal implants. I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon who can create a surgical plan for you. Best of luck!
Thank you for the question. To answer your question in general terms, yes it is possible for somebody to be too skinny to have a BBL. There are some patients who are so thin that they have little or no excess fat they can be harvested. There are also patients who have some excess fat but not enough to achieve their goals. It is not advisable to purposely gain weight in order to have a BBL.To answer your question specifically about you, would require at a minimum photos but a better option would be an in person consultation.
Hello and Great Question. I appreciate the time you are spending researching this procedure. My name is Dr. Matthew J. Nykiel. I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellowship Trained Cosmetic Surgeon, and a Butt Augmentation Specialist.Yes you can be too skinny for a BBL. A BBL is essentially two procedures in one - liposuction plus fat transfer. If you don't have enough fat you can not change the shape/size of the butt or frame. Patients who lack fat may consider a butt implant to increase the size and shape. I would suggest having a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon that specializes in this procedure. I hope that helps! Best of Luck! Matthew J. Nykiel, MD #CoreAesthetic Butt Augmentation Specialist Liposuction Specialist Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
