Female, 5'4 230lbs. After 4th baby needing TT and some volume added back in buttocks. Doesn't seem as though there are many skilled docs in Oregon who perform BBLs? Wondering if i could possibly get by with TT, lipo and sculpting whats already back there, or is fat transfer almost alway need
Answer: Would I benefit from a BBL or liposculpting? Hello and thank you for posting. A BBL is not always needed. It will depend on the results you are looking for. I believe lipo on your lower back will help your butt project and look much better. Additional fat transfer can be done if you want more projection and would like to have your butt look rounder from the side view. So, lower back lipo plus waist lipo, including the upper lateral part of the butt is what is going to sculpt your butt and make it nice and round from the back and front view. This plus the TT will change your body drastically and will give you great results. Additionally, if you lose some weight the surgery will be safer and easier. This means that the surgeon can be more aggressive and you would get much better and longer lasting results.

Answer: BBL & Tummy Tuck BMI Thanks for your question. At my practice, the max Body Mass Index (BMI) limit for a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is 35 and for a Tummy Tuck it's 33. The BMI is based on your height and weight. Going by the height and weight you provided, you are at 39.5 and do not meet our BMI requirement. Since you are over the BMI limit, I would recommend consulting with your primary care physician on a proper diet for you to bring down your BMI in order to be able to undergo either procedure. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take Care, Moises Salama MD, board certified plastic surgeon

Answer: Consider weight loss first Thanks for your photos, and most importantly your height and weight. Currently your BMI is 39, which falls into the "obese" category. I would consider thinking of plastic surgery as a journey and starting first with weight loss. Consider getting your BMI closer to 30 so that a board certified plastic surgeon can then help you achieve your dream body. Good luck!

Answer: Would I benefit from a BBL or liposculpting? Hello @mrs.davis19, thank you for your question. As part of your surgical plan I suggest you consider a tummy tuck and Total body contouring 360. A tummy tuck will remove excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen and strengthen the abdominal muscles. And with the BBL we take out fat from all parts of the body to make it more harmonious and give volume in the areas that need it. Combining the two procedures will yield the best results.
