4'8, 106lbs, want butt & hips to look full - is there anything recommended? (Photos)

Thanks for the question.

In this regard, I recommend you 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).

Kind regards

Hello @Practical129458, thank you for your question. It is important to develop a surgical plan that fits your possibilities, to fulfill your wishes for improvement and to take into account what can actually be achieved. The Brazilian Butt lift or body sculpting with lipoinjection is a a treatment to improve the body contour and thus improve the body proportions and from that enhance your beauty. I suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon if you are considering a surgery. That way you will have more information and recommendations. Best Regards! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Hi,
Based on the photos you have enough fat for a petite or skinny BBL. Lipo 360 would contour your entire trunk to help narrow your waist and accentuate your newly augmented hips and buttocks achievable with fat transfer. You have enough fat to transfer as is. Best of luck on your journey!

Hi! Excellent question! Most petite patients still qualify for a BBL as long as they understand that some BBLs can be dramatic and others can be subtle. So, even though you may not have enough fat for very big results, I still feel you have enough fat for great results. This means that the size and shape of your butt and hips will definitely improve after the BBL.

Your waist, back and especially tummy will get smaller with lipo, so the hips to waist ratio will improves regardless of butt size. This will make your hips look fuller. Plus, 360 Lipo with BBL reshapes the entire torso, this in turn will enhance your silhouette!

On smaller petite patients like you, gaining weight before surgery may be necessary as long as you keep the weight on after surgery. A BBL result will change due to weight fluctuations. Sometimes gaining a little bit of weight after surgery actually enhances results as well, so do not stress if you feel you might need more fat. Weight gain after lipo BBL happens mostly in places where there is more fat. Basically, your fat cells will increase in size wherever you have more fat deposits. This is good news for most patients in your situation, because after a BBL most of the fat will already be in your butt and hips!

Best of luck,
Dr. Miguel MOta

Dear Practical129458,
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.

Delivering consistent high-quality liposuction and fat transfer results is more difficult than most people believe in this is true for both patients and plastic surgeons. Most plastic surgeons think they are better at liposuction than they actually are. I do not recommend patients travel for elective surgical procedures. Patients seem to not appreciate the importance of properly vetting plastic surgeons by having multiple in person consultations prior to scheduling surgery, the number of patients who have serious concerns after surgery, the importance of in person follow up or the complications actually do happen. Liposuction and fat transfer has more variance or difference in outcome purely based on who does the procedure than any other surgical procedure I’ve ever seen. Being board-certified in plastic surgery with an overall good reputation is not sufficient to guarantee that somebody has mastered body contouring with liposuction and fat transfer. Personally I view the torso as a single anatomic unit and either treated the entire torso or don’t do Liposuction. There are of course exceptions but for the most part I believe in treating the entire torso. A full torso includes upper abdomen, lower abdomen, love handles all the way down to the hip dips, waist, the entire back and under arm area all the way to the side of the breast. this leaves people with a natural thin fat distribution without transition zones between treated and entrteded areas. I’ve viewed the BBL as an enhancement to body contouring creating an ideal feminine S-curve that goes from the armpit to the knee. I did not emphasize a large buttocks with liposuction of the outer thigh creating a big round butt on the small leg which I sometimes called the “lollipop look”. Instead I emphasize long smooth harmonious curves creating a slightly hyper feminized balanced figure. To find the most talented and experienced provider in your community I suggest having multiple in person consultations. I do not recommend patients travel for elective surgical procedures and I recommend patients whenever possible avoid virtual consultations. During in person consultations ask each provider to show their entire collection of before and after pictures of BBL results. Always confirm that after pictures were taken at least three months from the time of surgery. anybody who shows early postoperative pictures such as pictures with patients still showing surgical drawings on them, being in the operating room or any evidence of recently having had surgery should be immediately discounted as showing “.fake news”. Early fat transfer results can look very impressive but do not at all represent final results. Ask the provider to show you examples of excellent outcomes, average outcomes and less than outcomes. Specifically ask each provider to show as many pictures as possible‘s of patients who have similar body characteristics to your own. An experienced provider should have no difficulty showing you a minimum of 50+ sets of before and after pictures. Simply seeing a handful of pre-selected sample pictures which in reality most likely represent the best results of that providers career is insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like for that provider. Highly experienced providers will have hundreds or even thousands of before and after pictures and should be willing to give you access during the consultation to see as many pictures as possible. If somebody claims to of done a lot of surgery but doesn’t have a lot of before and after pictures then you should ask yourself why? Do not commit to surgery or pay a down payment during the time of consultation until you’ve finished all your consultations and have given yourself plenty of time to think about your decision. The results from these procedures are permanent and irreversible. When in doubt slow down and schedule more consultations. Finally I recommend patients read all reviews on all various physician review websites avoiding providers for any significant number of justified negative reviews. The absence of justified negative reviews is more important and more telling and having an abundance of positive reviews. Plastic surgeons with the biggest social media profiles are not necessarily any more talented than those who have no websites at all. Famous or likable does not equal talented. Find the right plastic surgeon and everything falls into place. Good luck, Mats Hagstrom MD

Hola, de acuerdo a las fotos no tiene mucha grasa para realizar el BBL, la poca grasa que se extraería se combinaría con implantes de glúteo para lograr la meta que está solicitando y realizar una lipoescultura láser para mejorar la calidad de la piel y tener elastina y colágena y reafirmar sus tejidos. Y si aceptamos tarjetas de crédito. Estamos a sus ordenes. Saludos.

Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note fullness of the flanks. As there is no lateral view, I cannot comment upon abdominal fullness. Your buttocks appear relatively small with lack of lateral fullness. From you height and weight data, your BMI is 23.76, at the higher end of "normal". You will most likely have sufficient fat to achieve your goals. The procedure will narrow your waist and fill out buttocks and hips. Visit a board certified plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion.Best wishes..
