Patients who are ‘too skinny’ for a traditional BBL can often be suitable candidates for a Skinny BBL.Patients who have a low BMI of less than 25.Some of the factors that can make a candidate suitable for a Skinny BBL include: Any potential Skinny BBL patients should book their consultation with a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon who has expertise in performing a range of BBL procedures to ensure their suitability for this surgery. For patients who have been told that they are unsuitable as they are too slim or don’t have enough fat deposits to undergo a traditional BBL procedure, there are other options, they may be suitable for a Skinny BBL. Some patients are informed that they are not suitable to undergo a BBL procedure after having a consultation with their plastic surgeon. Who is a Suitable Candidate for a Skinny BBL? Alternatively, in some cases, patients may be advised to gain some weight before the procedure so that these gained fat deposits can be used to enhance the size of the buttocks. This means that liposuction of multiple areas will need to occur to ensure that enough fat is gathered. A Skinny BBL uses liposuction of more areas than a traditional BBL because one or two areas of the body will not have enough fat deposits to be used for the enhancement. Additionally, other slim candidates may only desire a small butt enhancement and so despite having a low amount of fat deposits on their body, they can be safely taken by liposuction and the fat graft will achieve the results they desire.Ĭonversely, other candidates may not have enough fat to be able to undergo this type of BBL procedure and instead be more suited to undergo a Skinny BBL.
