I am currently looking for a surgeon to perform my BBL but I am worried I will be turned away for not having enough fat to harvest. I am not interested in buttock implants. I Have posted photos. A breast lift is on my list. But BBL is my priority at the moment.
Answer: Am I too thin for a Brazilian Butt lift at 5'6" and 154 pounds? (Photos) You really want to select your board certified plastic surgeon based upon quality of results and overall experience with the procedure on thinner individuals. From your photos, weight, and height, you appear to be a good candidate for a BBL. Most patients get an immense benefit with maximal liposuction of the abdomen, sides, and back to obtain the smallest waist possible and then maximal fat transfer to the buttocks and hips.

Answer: BBL on a thin patient The secret of the superior BBL is not so much the amount of fat harvested and transferred but the sculpting and contouring performed around the buttocks and the waist.Based on your pictures I feel you can have a considerable improvement with a BBL and you have enough fat to make a noteworthy impression.Please see videos of people that look like you and also check our instagram page: @dranastasatosThank you.

Answer: CONSULT WITH YOUR SURGEON ABOUT YOUR WEIGHT BEFORE BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT. Hello mybbljourney, I appreciate your pictures and questions! One of the main considerations when evaluating a patients’ candidacy for BBL surgery is whether they have enough fat stored in their body, so the surgeon can harvest enough fat cells to use during the fat transfer phase. For patients with insufficient fat deposits, the doctor may advice weight gain before the BBL to qualify for the procedure. I would recommend asking your plastic surgeon if he/she requires you to gain weight or not depending on whether he/she is planning to do a full body Liposuction or just a limited Liposuction to harvest the fat. Best regards! Dr. De La Cruz.

Answer: BBL Hello and thank you for your question!There are two questions in determining if you are a good candidate for a BBL, how big you want your buttock to be and how the fat is distributed on your body. Based on what I can see from the photos, I believe you should have enough fat to transfer. A BBL is not only about the amount of fat added but also about the body contouring with the liposuction. I would recommend setting up an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon that specializes in this procedure.Good luck!

Answer: Lipo and BBl Hi, thanks for sharing your concern and photos with us! Looking at your photos I might say that you´ll be a great candidate to get an entire abdomen, back and waist liposuction with BBL, this is because you have located fat that can be done with lipo. Before all this, of course, you need to get a complete medical evaluation and laboratory exams to check everything is fine. Also please try to find a board certified plastic surgeon, remember that your safety, always, is going to be first. Have a great day! Dr. JPG
