Am I too thin for a BBL? (Photo)

I appreciate your question.





I have done many Brazilian Butt lift procedures and specialize in body contouring.  The amount of enhancement possible depends on how much fat can be harvested from your body.





The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.



Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery.





Best of luck!

With the growing popularity of BBL, more patients are interested in fat grafting to the buttocks than before and many may think that they may not have enough fat to get a good result. The most important consideration is managing your expectations: how large do you want to be? is the fat transfer more for shaping and filling out a certain area than for pure volume? A consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon is critical to setting up for success. For example, modern techniques of liposuction and fat harvesting enables the surgeon to get more useable fat than one may think. Fat can be removed by multiple areas as well to get a reasonable amount for transfer as well. On the other hand, the surgeon can give you an opinion stating that what is desired may not be achievable with what you have and that is just as important to know. Thanks for the question and good luck.
