Would a second BBL or butt implants get me the best result and do I need a thigh lift?

Question

I had a BBL a year ago. I'm contemplating a second bbl or butt implants, I'd like to know which can give me the results I want, which is a heart shape butt. I feel my butt still looks squarish. The fat used for my bbl was only posterior. NOT 360. My Dr. said my abdomen was too loose to do lipo without a tummy tuck. This time I do want a TT, abdominal lipo with fat transfer to butt or implants. Below are 4 pics. 1 showing arrows on areas I feel need more volume. 1 of my abdomen and 2 wish pics. Also I have loose saggy skin right under my butt, what is the best way to fix this - do I need a thigh lift?

You are in good company with many others after BBL. Going through round two BBL is likely to only give you more of the same without providing additional shape or fullness, especially in the lower half of the buttock, where the fat tends to survive relatively poor. The only more reliable, predictable and permanent way to achieve your desired outcome is with buttock implants. You may in fact benefit from additional body contouring of your front half by way of a tummy tuck with liposuction of the flanks.  Lastly a posterior thigh lift/lower buttock tuck may or may not benefit the area you describe as “saggy skin right under your butt”. All this can be further evaluated with a virtual consult and eventually confirmed with an in person physical exam. Glad to help.

The BBL results are highly surgeon dependent.  Some board certified surgeons can do almost anything and change the shape of anything.  You have to be creative.  There are some anatomic limits, but, for the most part, dramatic transformations can be achieved. Have the lipo and BBL first; three to six months later, have the TT.

Hello dear,Thanks for the question and photos. Yes, you're a great candidate for TT, Lipo and BBL revision.
In this regard, I recommend you TT, waist and back Liposculpture, getting better curves especially in the waist, improving your body contour.
Finally, I suggested take the fat we get and transfer to the buttocks and hips, to mold them and get better volume, contour and butt projection, is that we know as "Brazilian Butt Lift" (BBL).l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)

Dear qwert678,
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 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.

Hello, thanks for your questions and photos. You are a candidate for Liposuction with Tummy Tuck and BBL. This time, you can have a fat injection on the sides of the buttocks, for a better contour and an hourglass shape. Do not forget to consult a certified plastic surgeon in your area. Good Luck!
