I had 4 rounds already due to 3 botched jobs by the same surgeon .I had 1 reconstructive surgery which has really helped and transformed my body. I had some Hylaronic acid filler put in also. I will another bbl be the answer to my problems if performed by a skilled surgeon , do I have enough fat for another round ? From looking at the photos approximately how much cc could be removed ?
Answer: BBL candidate Dear weightloss11111, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Considering another round of BBL… Without any photos, it is not possible to appreciate what your current appearance or concern is. Please also include several photo angles of yourself. That being said, you are in good company with many others who had high hopes for BBL but instead received disappointing results (lumpiness, unevenness, lack of projection in the central and/or lower buttock, post-deflation sagging, etc.) as most of the fat melts away. It is not quite as much the quality of the doctor nor the liposuction technique used but rather the quality of the procedure that is a large part of the problem. Thus, going back for round 2 (3,4,5 etc) BBL most often produces the same disappointing results but at another financial loss. Typically also, each successive round of BBL leaves behind more scar tissue with lower quality fat to harvest and a lower quality recipient bed of tissue where it is being transferred. Buttock implants indeed provide a more reliable, predictable, relatively safe, and permanent result, especially for adding projection to the buttock and often smoothing out lumpiness. Occasionally a lower buttock tuck may be advantageous for lower buttock fold asymmetries and/or sagging. Please keep in mind that an extremely few number of board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in buttock implants so be sure to consult with one that is reputable and experienced. Unfortunately you may have to travel long and far away from home to find this particular surgeon. Glad to help.

Answer: Will another BBL fix this ? Is another BBL the answer? Without posting any photos there is NO way to offer any advise. Best to connect to a revision BBL expert boarded PS. Expect fees in the $6,000-$20,000 ranges.

Answer: Another BBL after 4 rounds > Hello. Sorry you send no pictures. You should really think that having 4 rounds of BBL, and even getting hialuronic acid filler, does not sounds good.

Answer: BBL redo At this point, you need to seek a high definition BBL revision specialist. I do not see your photos unfortunately to help you with specific advice. You should also use the BBL assessment tool to make sure that you communicate your desired buttock shape. The optimal BBL revision outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat since your fat has already been harvested 2) a closed looped system to process the fat in order to optimize transfer time and avoid your fat from becoming contaminated and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique that maximizes graft take. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. Finally, attention must be given to providing you the buttock shape that YOU desire. This means using our proprietary BBL assessment tool. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons. Our buttock assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACS Realself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee
