I had a BBL and got botched. My Lipo was to be 360, but I have a fatty pocket above my naval and my flanks weren’t touched.I have fat necrosis in my buttocks. On my left, there is a big hard spot in the middle the size of a golf ball. On the right, there is a hard spot that is smaller. What is the technique to get my fat necrosis removed? Will I need a large incision and where? Will I be able to get fat put back as I actually like the size of my buttocks. Who can help and is the best?
Answer: Can I get my fat necrosis removed and a complete BBL revision? Who is the best surgeon that can fix my issues? (Photo) The necrosis can be removed; once it heals, fat can be harvested to reshape your buttocks and fill in the dents. Having the BBL done a second time is an option as long as you have enough fat to be transferred. The revision implies that there is less fat than the first time, and scar tissue will make the surgery much more difficult on the surgeon.

Answer: BBL revision It is very hard to comment on your result without before surgery photos! Irregularities after liposuction are frequent and may be addressed when result is mature (1-1,5 years after initial surgery). Dimples, hard mass and other irregularities of the grafted sites are result of uneven fat graft resorption and survival. About 50% of fat injected in the time of surgery will survive after 8 and more months. The rest will undergo resorption, necrosis, scarring, formation of oil cysts, etc. All of this will reflect on postoperative appearance when result is mature (about 1 year after surgery). you have to understand that uneven resorption and healing of the dead tissue is out of control of your surgeon; it is inherited feature of fat and any other grafting (bone, skin, tendon, etc) and depends on the available blood supply in the grafted area ( recipient site). Survival of fat grafts equally depends of patient ability to accept and retain so large quantity of fat grafts (most patients want large butts) as surgeons technique and skill! Once result of fat transfer is mature, it can be treated with combination of liposuction and new fat grafting of irregular areas. Whether scarred areas (after fat necrosis) need to be removed or can be just shaped with liposuction and grafting will depend on individual presentation and judgement of the surgeon.

Answer: Botched BBL Fat necrosis is a very real complication after liposuction or fat grafting. It’s a biologic process and can be very capricious. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you’ve been botched. Preoperative pictures would be helpful to know where you started. Once scarring sets into a grafted area like the buttocks, it can be tricky to completely remove without creating further aesthetic issues. See multiple surgeons who do procedure a lot and get more than one opinion. The application of powered blending and infusion as developed by Dr. Simeon Wall may be part of your answer

Answer: BBL concerns If you want us to address the outcome of a procedure you need to post before and after pictures. If you don’t have before pictures ask the surgeon to forward the ones they took before your procedure.
