I don't have enough fat in my stomach but I do have some in my arms and thighs. Am I a good candidate for a BBL?

Question

I am 5’4 1/2 and weigh 132 pounds I don’t have enough fat in my stomach area however I do have some on my arms and in the thigh area. Would I be a good candidate? I have hip dips so I am looking to fill those in for a more curvy look I’m not necessarily looking for a fuller look in the gluten area because I have fat there already. Can I achieve these results with air sculpting or should I go for non air sculpting.

Dear Easygoing937346, thank you for your question, before anything it would be good to see some pictures to evaluate your case. Without appropiate pictures is not possible to suggest or say anything about your case. Make sure you go on consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of lucks. Dr. Luis Mejia.

Without in person evaluation it would be impossible to give you meaningful answer. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in body contouring is recommended. Good luck.

We can’t really begin to make an assessment without seeing pictures of you.
Assessing how much fad can be removed from any particular area can be challenging.
Is best done with an examination.
If individuals don’t have enough fat to harvest from their torso then it’s not uncommon to add extremities as additional sources.
 in many individuals, we can completely eliminate hip dips by Liposuction alone.
By simply removing fat in the love handles, the S curve (a.k.a. Coke bottle a.k.a. hourglass )cab be accentuated, basically eliminating the hip dip. 
Airsculpt may be an excellent option.
The company has a good reputation and are generally highly selective when choosing providers.
I generally always recommend having in person, consultations and avoiding virtual consultations whenever possible.
Recognize that there are going to be individual differences among different providers even within the same company.
 Understanding your own candidacy for the procedure and provider selection are the two most important variables.
Assessing how much fat can be harvested is a fairly complex task. Look for senior plastic surgeons, who have decades of experience doing this procedure.
Best,
