Do tall women (5'10") and BBLs exist?

Question

I'm a tall girl (5'10") and just about all of the BBL stories I've seen on here are posts from women who are a lot shorter than me. Which has me wondering if BBL's look better on women who are shorter? Have any doctors performed a BBL on a taller woman and able to share before and after photos please?

I have many taller patients your height and above; and the results are just as optimal, short and tall alike.  About 50% to 70% of the fat survives long term.   I usually transfer 1200 to 1500 cc to each buttock, but I tailor each operation to meet the desires of the patient. Uploading your photos for review to determine fat availability would be helpful.Find a board certified plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of Brazilian buttlift procedures each year with favorable patient reviews, and hundreds of before and after photos on his or her website.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

The Brazilian Butt Lift is a procedure designed to transfer fat from one area of the body, typically the stomach and thighs, hips, knees, and back to the buttock through liposuction. The procedure is meant to reshape, but also enhances the size of a buttock to better fit the figure and provides a perky appearance to rear end. For those who have lost weight and feel their buttocks lack shape or wish to improve the appearance of their backsides, the Brazilian butt lift procedure is a solution. It is unique by the use of the patients own harvested body fat, rather than the use of synthetic material. This allows for a healthier and longer lasting result. To be specific about your question, yes, BBL's are done on tall women as long as there is enough fat to harvest. Next step for you is to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and goals.

Your height is not the issue. The amount of fat available for grafting would be.  You would have to be seen in person to determine whether or not you are a candidate.

Hello dear!!Thanks for the question. And of course a lot of tall women just like you get an BBL, and it looks great in all of them.I recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon for a good evaluation and to talk about your concerns and goals.
