Lipo 7 month ago, is skinny BBL something for me?

Question

I did a Liposuction 7 months ago on my waist, lower back. i am interested in a skinny bbl, or just add more definition to the buttlocks. Do I have enough fat (if they take from the arms, upper back and tummy)? How much do you think they need to make a small longlasting difference? Should i focus on hip dips or projection if I dont have enough of fat for all areas? I am of course afraid of even more sagging skin especially on my tummy and arms.

Thanks for your question. From your pictures, you seem to be a good candidate for a skinny BBL. The BBL includes 360 lipo, which is lipo of the upper and lower abdomen, the upper and lower back and the flanks. If you do not have enough fat in these areas, liposuction can be performed in many other areas of the body for fat transfer to the buttocks, such as the upper arms and chin. That said, you may be asked to gain some weight. I recommend you schedule a consult for a proper evaluation. Make sure the surgeon you choose has extensive experience with Skinny BBLs and clean credentials. Always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Thanks so much for your question, 
A skinny BBL works well for those with a slimmer frame but enough fat deposits for grafting. Since you had liposuction 7 months ago, your surgeon will assess if there’s still enough fat in areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs to achieve the desired volume in your buttocks.

Skinny BBLs are typically more about shaping than adding significant volume, so this could be a great option if you’re aiming for subtle enhancement and contouring.

A consultation with a qualified surgeon will help determine if there’s enough fat available and if your body can achieve the desired look with a skinny BBL.

Sincerely, 
Dr. Emmanuel Mallol

Dear Linsofi,
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.

Dear Linsofi, thanks for sharing your case and Pictures, after evaluate your case vaser liposuction with Brazilian but lift can be performed with a Tummy Tuck maybe mini tummy tuck to get rid of saggy skin. Make sure you go on consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of lucks. Dr. Luis Mejia.

Hello Dear! It would have been great if both surgeries had been combined, there is no minimum or maximum weight, you just need to have enough fat in a localized area to be able to eliminate it and transfer it to the gluteal area. From the photos you show, you do not have enough fat to make a significant change in the volume of your buttocks. In cases where the patient does not have enough localized fat, it is most ideal to gain weight, between 10 to 20 pounds, to be successful in the BBL.
