Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
335cc or 355cc? From 75A to full C cup or small D cup
choosing breast implant size
Apr 6, 2019
In order to advise you I would need to see photos of your chest. Realistically 20cc difference is minimal and will not make much difference. Paul Wigoda MD
Follow-up question: Do I appear to be a good candidate for a BBL without a tummy tuck?
Candidate for BBL
Apr 6, 2019
Based on your photos it does appear that you are a good candidate for a BBL. I would not recommend a tummy tuck. Depending on how much larger you want your butt to be, you may even want to gain a few pounds to have more fat available. In either case I think you can get a very nice result.paul wigoda md
Is 500cc okay for each butt and hip for a natural butt?
candidate for BBL
Nov 3, 2018
A photo of your front and side would be helpful but based only on the back photo, it does look like you might be a good candidate for a BBL with a natural looking butt. 500cc on each side is enough for a natural look. The lipo of your hips alone makes a big difference in the appearance of the butt. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
Is 200 cc of fat in each butt cheek enough to make a difference?
Thin patient wants BBL
Nov 3, 2018
In order to determine the best course of treatment, I would first need to know what your goals were and if it was realistic. You would be a candidate for lipo and BBL but the enhancement of your butt would be limited. Even so, if you were having lipo, I would use whatever fat I had, and do the BBL to try to achieve the best result. I dont think sculptra in your butt would be worth the cost. In South Florida a procedure like this would cost from $7500-$9500 with most board certified plastic s...
I am wanting a BBL and tummy tuck. Would I do better with a mommy makeover?
BBL or tummy tuck
Nov 3, 2018
To optimally improve your belly you will ultimately need a tummy tuck. However, if you want a BBL, I would recommend doing a BBL first, and then 4 to 6 months later, the tummy tuck. While some surgeons combine these at one time, I dont personally recommend it. The mommy makeover typically involves some breast surgery. Which procedure you have depends on your goals and anatomy and can possibly be done with the BBL or the tummy tuck. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
Could this be Hematoma? 3 days ago my right butt inflamed and this morning it leaked. The pain reduced
drainage 6 months after BBL
Nov 3, 2018
I would definitely recommend seeing a plastic surgeon to evaluate you. If it was brown liquid, it could be from an old hematoma that was never drained. It may need to be drained more. However, you also need to make sure its not an infection which would require antibiotics and possible drainage. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
Traveling for surgery and risk of blood clots? Traveling from Australia to Dominican Republic.
Long trip for surgery
Nov 3, 2018
Considering your risks, I would not recommend traveling that far to have your surgery unless you plan to be tested for clots after you arrive but before your surgery, and then again before you travel home. Blood clots in your legs can be life threatening if they get into your lungs. I would suggest finding a surgeon near you. While I am sure there are some happy patients after surgery in the DR, I personally have seen many patients return to the US after surgeries in DR with infect...
Why or why not should I get a BBL and liposuction?
BBL or tummy tuck
Nov 3, 2018
Which procedure you choose really depends on what your goals are. If your main goal is a larger butt with improvement in your body contour, I think you are a good candidate for a BBL. I dont think you necessarily would need a tummy tuck after that, but again, it depends on exactly what you are trying to achieve along with accepting scars, recovery time, etc. I would probably recommend a BBL first, wait 6 months, and if your belly skin wasnt as tight as you wanted, or your muscles were lo...
Will second hand smoke from my neighbors be enough for my surgeon to cancel my 360 lipo and BBL?
Nicotine and plastic surgery
Nov 3, 2018
Nicotine constricts blood vessels, which limits the blood flow to tissues. You want maximum blood flow to heal optimally. Nicotine stays in your system for at least 2 weeks if you smoke one cigarette. I dont allow smokers to smoke for 4 weeks prior to any cosmetic procedure and 4 weeks after. Most end up quitting altogether if they quit for the 4 weeks before. I dont think second hand smoke from another apartment will affect you but if you lived with someone who smoked, I would ask them to o...
Can I have liposuctions fat transfer to the buttocks after 5 children?
BBL after many children
Nov 3, 2018
The number of children you have is not a factor in deciding if you are a candidate for any cosmetic procedure. What matters is your overall health and then of course what your body shape is  and what you want to achieve. For example, if you are healthy but very thin, without much excess fat, a BBL is not possible. If you have a lot of loose skin, then liposuction may not be the best option. You need to see an experienced board certified plastic surgeon to determine what is best in your c...
Should I do lipo and butt enhancement first then do a tummy tuck once healed?
BBL and tummy tuck
Nov 3, 2018
If you can provide photos, a more specific answer can be given for your case. Generally speaking I perform a BBL first and three months or more later, I would do a tummy tuck. While some doctors do them together, I think in most cases that is not the best way to go. It does add risk to the procedure and positioning yourself afterward becomes challenging. After a tummy tuck, its most comfortable to lay on your back and butt, but if you have a BBL, you want to limit the pressure on your but...
I have had a surgery on my hip due to a car accident. Is it safe to get a BBL?
Scar on the butt may affect BBL
Nov 3, 2018
You ask a very good question. I would want to examine you to be able to give you an accurate answer. Its possible that the long scar on your butt could affect the result since the butt may not be able to expand in that area the way you would want it to. You may want to wait a year from your surgery before considering the BBL to allow the scar to soften. However, it may still affect the result. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
I’m very square and I crave the hourglass figure. Is this a realistic expectation ?
Candidate for BBL
Nov 3, 2018
Although you only provided a view from the back, it does look like you are a good candidate for a BBL. To be sure I would want to see a front view but an hourglass shape appears to be realistic from what I see. Depending on how much larger you want your butt, you may be asked to gain some weight. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
How much should your BMI be before you can have surgery? Am I a candidate?
BMI for BBL
Nov 3, 2018
Typically surgeons like to operate on patients with a BMI less than 30. Looking at your photos, it looks like you have a lot of internal fat in addition to external fat. The internal fat will not be removed with lipo. That will be lost only with dieting. You need to take that into consideration to have realistic expectations of what can be done with lipo and a BBL. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
Looking for recommendations for my butt. Fat Transfer? Should I gain weight first? I'm 52, 5"9' and 160
BBL after weight loss
Nov 3, 2018
While I think a BBL is an option for you and will improve the appearance of your butt, if you gained some of that weight back to have more fat to transfer to your butt, the result would be a lot better. It does not look like you have that much fat to liposuction, compared to what you would need for a great result on a BBL. If you cant gain weight, it may still be worthwhile but the result would not be as dramatic. Best of luck.Paul Wigoda, MD
