Had a consultation for Airsculpt full abdomen and power BBL. Will this give results like a regular BBL?

Question

Any advice will help. Will this give results like a regular BBL? The doctor mentioned I dont have much room to fill on my bottom. Not sure what he means by that. I'm 5'4 and weigh 140lbs. I keep seeing mixed reviews, the price is pretty steep for all the bad reviews I'm seeing of people saying they see no difference.

Hi SF101. As in anything in life, the results depend on the proficiency of the surgeon actually doing your procedure, regardless of the technology used. In answer to your question, yes, the results will be equivalent to a regular BBL. Ask to see results of the individual surgeon and read their reviews. Performing the fat transfer procedure to the buttocks awake is much safer than having it done under general anesthesia since the gluteal muscles are not paralyzed and the risks of fat embolism are much lower.

Hi the results of your BBL is really dependent on the surgeon. The device that is being used is just a tool and is the surgeon's preference. Some people prefer the Vaser others use tickle, Microaire, and many great surgeons use plain suction to harvest the fat. Check out the work credentials and reviews of the surgeon. Granted, the better surgeons will use the better tools so you wouldn't hire a builder that wants to build your dream house with a hammer and some nails, but you wouldn't choose the builder based on the brand of tools they use either.

In the end there are only two variables that determine the outcome of these procedures. They are the individual candidacy of the patient combined with the skill and experience of the provider.

Most providers who work for elite body Sculpture have far more experience with these procedures than average plastic surgeons since it is a specialty clinic that only performs Airsculpt Liposuction and fat transfer procedures.

I cannot speak on behalf of all providers in the company but from what I have seen the work is far above average and the prices are justified.  like anywhere else some providers have more experience than others and some simply are better at certain procedures than others are.  doing the same procedure over and over every day simply creates skill and experience that cannot be achieved any other way.

In the end value is something that is created by the consumer. In other words some thing is worth what someone is willing to pay for it.  it’s important to meet in person with the person who will be doing your procedure.  if you still have questions after the consultation consider going in to speak with them again.

That said there are a lot of highly manipulated BBL pictures floating around the Internet either pictures taken immediately after the procedure which are not at all representative or indicative of final results or simply pictures that are manipulated through computer graphics. Both patients and providers can be highly motivated to show that there is odds are more impressive than others especially those who claim to be social influencers.

Consider asking each provider to show before and after of their own results especially on patients with similar body shapes and contours to your own to have a good understanding of what you should expect.

Elite Body Sculpture has some of the most talented providers with the most body contouring experience of anyone working for them.

My experience has been that patients who are dissatisfied with the results were typically not good candidates for the procedure in the first place.  perhaps the provider could’ve done a better job at explaining inherit limitations but before surgery some people simply don’t want to hear it.

Best of luck with your upcoming decision making.
