Skinny BBL: What You Need to Know Before the Procedure

skinny bbl what you need to know

With the growing trend to show off a curvaceous derriere, men and women are turning to plastic surgery to achieve the look they have always wanted. However, achieving a Hollywood-worthy rear end with diet and exercise alone can be extremely difficult, if not impossible. Fortunately, with a BBL, patients can add more volume to their buttocks and improve their overall physique effectively and dramatically.

But what about skinny patients? Can they achieve the booty they have always dreamed of? Is there a treatment that can help them achieve their goals? If you have never heard of the Skynny BBL, here is what you need to know about this procedure.

What is a Skinny BBL?

Have you been told you are too "skinny" for a traditional Brazilian butt lift? You might think that your only option for enhancing and plumping your booty is to get butt implants. Still, now there's a specific procedure for people like you. It's called Skinny BBL, and it's perfect for patients looking to add more definition and volume to their rear without using large amounts of fat.

Skinny BBL in Miami is a surgical procedure performed to modify the buttocks substantially. Most patients undergoing this procedure are usually very thin or petite, physically active, and fit, with dipped hips, flat bottoms, or no natural curvature between the waist and hips. The Skinny BBL will help shape the hips, round and sculpt the buttocks and provide a natural-looking curve between the waist and butt. The procedure typically involves your surgeon removing fat from other parts of your body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or waist, through liposuction and then reinjecting the fat removed into those areas that need it most.

Who should consider it?

The Skinny BBL procedure is an excellent option for people in good health and who would not be able to achieve the desired results with the traditional fat transfer because they have a small amount of body fat. Ideal candidates for Skinny BBL include:

  • You wish to fill out or shape your buttocks area. If you do not have a natural curvature around your waist and buttocks, you are a great candidate for Skinny BBL.
  • You are in good health.
  • Not being pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Be over 18 years of age. Surgeons prefer to operate on young adults in their 20s and above.
  • Have enough fat to remove it. Your BMI must be less or equal to 25 to qualify for this treatment.
  • Not smoking or using drugs.
  • Be qualified by a certified surgeon for this procedure.

In some cases, a patient might end up being too thin for a Skinny BBL. When this occurs, the patient must understand that this does not mean they must intentionally gain weight to undergo the procedure. Your surgeon will be able to recommend other options that can help you achieve your dream curves.

Skinny BBL weight requirements (BMI )

Body mass index (BMI) is a significant measure that surgeons take into account when evaluating a patient for any aesthetic surgery. A high BMI can increase the risk of complications during and after the procedure and affect the final results. Patients must know their BMI and what it means for their Skinny BBL procedure.

A good BMI for a Skinny BBL is typically between 18 and 25. Having a BMI within this range can guarantee that there is enough fat to transfer. Higher BMIs may, however, be accepted by some surgeons depending on the specific case. That is why it is very important to undergo a rigorous evaluation by a skilled surgeon who specializes in this procedure.

Pros and Cons of Skinny BBL

As with any cosmetic surgery, you should keep in mind that this is a life-changing decision. We will outline the pros and cons of the Skinny BBL so you can be well-informed before deciding if the procedure is right for you.

Pros:

  • Natural-Looking Results: Since the Skinny BBL uses your own fat, this procedure can produce a much more natural looking as well as natural sensation.
  • Complete body contouring: As patients are thin in build. The surgeon must harvest fat from different body parts, providing total body contour beyond adding volume to the buttocks.
  • The scars are almost invisible because the incisions are small. At Avana Plastic Surgery, our surgeons take great care to make incisions in areas that are not visible. In addition, with proper postoperative care, the incisions will fade over time and blend in with the rest of the skin.
  • Increases your confidence: men and women feel a boost of confidence and are satisfied with the results.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Your results will be stable with proper care and a healthy lifestyle.

Cons:

  • Weight restrictions: To maintain your new body shape, you must avoid weight fluctuations, which will distort your body proportions achieved after liposuction and fat transfer.
  • Skinny BBL is an invasive surgery with risks like any other surgery: These risks will be explained in detail during the pre-op consultation with your surgeon.
  • Asymmetric Results: If a certified surgeon performs the surgery, you may avoid obtaining nonsymmetrical results and not achieving your body's expectations.

What experts say about skinny BBLs

For those who want a firmer and plumper booty, no body contouring procedure is more popular than the Brazilian Butt Lift. It is fascinating how much people like removing fat from areas where they do not want it and transferring it to the right places without any foreign body involved.

Doctors feel confident while performing a Skinny BBL because, aside from being safer than placing implants, it is a natural procedure that boosts patients' self-esteem and brings self-confidence. And the Skinny BBL is even more attractive to a broader group of patients who don't have the amount of fat for a traditional BBL.
