Having second thoughts about surgery, BBL or tummy tuck first? (Photos)

The surgeon who told you that you weren't a good candidate for a tummy tuck should retire. As for 'one or the other', that has been settled for years: fat grafting to the buttocks (BBL) and tummy tucks can be performed simultaneously without affecting the results of either. You don't have to go to Miami.

I recommend getting the tummy tuck first if you are planning to do a two-stage procedure. Doing the Lipo/BBL first creates a tremendous amount of scar tissue beneath the skin that makes a future tummy tuck challenging. You are a perfect candidate for a tummy tuck. Alternatively, you could have a combo procedure (VASERlipo360, tummy tuck, hip fat grafting) at the same time which I do very frequently.
