I’m pretty petite, 5 ft 120 lbs and no kids. But I carry most of my weight in my belly making me look 5 months pregnant and I’m sick of it. I was gonna have a skinny bbl and lipo 360 but now that I’m getting married soon and we may start having kids in about a year I’m debating if I should go through with it or wait until afterwards. My fear is my stomach not snapping back and then having to do a round 2. How does pregnancy affect lipo/ bbl results and should I go through with it or weight?
Answer: BBL After Pregnancy Thank you for your question regarding whether you should get Lipo 360 now or wait until you have children. Thank you for your history and your pictures. Based on your history and the fact that you specifically said you are considering having children in about a year, I suggest you wait. Therefore, I would wait until you have all your kids and then consider having lipo and a BBL. At that time, you may also require a tummy tuck. Only time will tell. If you were getting married but were going to have your children in over a year or sometime in the far future, I would suggest having the BBL now. However, since you are considering having the children within a year, I suggest you wait. I hope this helps answer your question regarding when to time your procedure, lipo 360, and a BBL. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen

Answer: Liposuction and BBL candiddate? Thank you for your question. To provide a valid medical opinion I will need to see pictures of you body in underwear or naked (the face do not need to appear) from different angles. I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results. Respectfully, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

Answer: Should I get the lipo 360/BBL now or wait until after kids? Hello @carmu2022, thank you for your question. Regarding surgeries the right time is when the patient determines that she needs the surgery. Is important that you have your surgery with a board certified plastic surgeon that is experienced that can guide you trough the process and develop a surgical plan that fits your possibilities, to fulfill your wishes for improvement and to take into account what can actually be achieved without a tummy tuck. I link a video about pregnancy and Liposuction to shed more light . Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: BBL candidate Dear carmu2022, 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: Lipo 360/BBL Hello ! I would recommend you to wait afterwards. BBL is usually not affected by pregnancy but liposuction can. Furthermore, you might notice weight gain in other untreated areas. I hope this helps, best of luck !
