Will a Butt Lift reshape and lift my buttocks? (photos)

Question

I have already had two BBL one in 2015 and in 2021. My butt seems square and droopy. What procedure would help?

Ryan A. Stanton, MD · Answer

A buttock lift is not the answer to your post-BBL problems. Here is what i tell patients like yourself all the time:

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 liposuction technique but rather the quality of the procedure that is a large part of the problem.  Thus, going back for round 2 BBL most often produces the same disappointing results but at another financial loss.   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.

Hi dear
If you only have your own fat en un your butt ,We can do another BBL to harmonize and make them look rounder and better with your own fat from liposuction

In order for us to assess the outcome of a surgical procedure or simply make an assessment on someone who’s had previous surgery we always have to see before and after pictures.

If you don’t have before and after pictures then ask the surgeons who did your previous procedures to forward the ones they took.

Without seeing your original before pictures it’s hard to tell if it BBL was a good procedure in the first place or if it was performed well or not.

Considering that revision work is many times more difficult than primary work creating an aesthetic body contour in your case is going to be very challenging and should only be attempted by those who are supremely talented and experienced.

Best,
