I’m considering removing my butt implants and having a BBL followed by PMMA injections (Linnea Safe). What technique is best? (p

Question

1. Can a bbl be performed along with imp removal? 2. Will the fat be injected in the muscle or above? 4. Will there be an adverse reaction when pmma comes in contact with the fat inside the glute? 5. How long after imp removal and bbl must I wait to have pmma injected? 6. What is the most pmma I can have injected per session? How long must I wait between sessions? I’m 5ft tall , 118 lbs 25 1/2 waist, 31inch hips. I currently have 460 ccs intramuscular butt imp. View profile for more details.

You can definitely remove your butt implants and have a safe subcutaneous injection of fat for your BBL. As for the PMMA, why would you add that to a BBL? It is sometimes used for patients who aren’t candidates for BBL, but doesn’t last long and has risks of complications including product allergy that aren’t usually worth accepting. The only way to know for sure is to book a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to see what your options are. Best of luck!

Dear NeverEndingQuest4Butt,
It is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You can get implant removal and wait until you are fully healed before you get BBL surgery or you can do it at the same time. In any case, fat should be injected above the muscle in order to avoid complications. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
