BBL for Trans woman?

Question

I'm looking for a doctor who could perform a BBL to sculpt a more feminine figure. As a trans woman I understand not many doctors are willing to work with someone like me which narrows down my options a lot. I am 18 years old as of right now and would be hoping to get it in the next year or so once the pandemic has calmed down a bit. I live in the UK but would be willing to travel. If there's any doctors or anyone who recommends any doctors let me know!! Thank you!

Dear ellzangel,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. 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.

Hello, thank you for your question. It is hard to tell without proper photos or a physical examination. I recommend you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

I have no idea why you think your ability to resource competent plastic surgeons is limited.

Your post unfortunately does not allow us to make any type of assessment in regards to your candidacy for the procedure.

If you want us to make an assessment in regards to your candidacy for the procedure you will need to post pictures.

It’s up to each individual patient defined the most appropriate provider for their needs.

The following are some general guidelines I put out to help patients get the best results.

I recommend patients avoid traveling long distances for elective surgical procedures. There are of course instances where there is a lack of local talent and traveling to some degree is inevitable. If traveling for the procedure patients should be ready to travel to have the consultation, post operative appointments and follow up should there be issues or complications.
Patients sometimes do not appreciate the importance of in person consultations, that complications do happen or the number of people who have issues with their results or need revisions.

Schedule multiple consultations with different providers in your area who seem to have a good reputation for the procedure you’re interested in. Starting with at least five consultations seems like a reasonable number to me.

Whenever possible schedule in person consultations.  
During in person consultations ask each plastic surgeon to show all of their before and after pictures for the procedure you’re interested in.

The goal is not to see the best results of their career but to get an idea of what average results look like and get some type of confirmation of how many of these procedures that provider has performed.

Ask to see results that were not as good as the doctor would’ve hoped for and talk about the differences in outcomes.

Honest and experienced providers should have no problems presenting this type of information.

A highly experienced plastic surgeon should have hundreds of before and after pictures for the procedure you’re interested in.

Read all the reviews on various physician review websites paying close attention and avoiding providers with any significant number of justified negative reviews.  Providers with an abundance of reviews often have aggressive marketing campaigns.

The plastic surgeons I respect most all have the single variable of not having justified negative reviews on their online profiles. 
In my opinion justified negative reviews are far more telling than an abundance of positive reviews.

Avoid scheduling for surgery or making a deposit on the day of the consultation.  Give yourself some time to think about the decision and make sure you finished all scheduled consultations before committing to having surgery that will permanently and irreversibly change your body.

When in doubt slow down and schedule more consultations.

Choosing the right plastic surgeon is the single most important variable to having a positive experience.

Don’t go chasing after technology or names of certain equipment. Instead focus all your efforts on finding the most experienced and talented board-certified plastic surgeon.

Best,

Mats Hagstrom MD
