Skinny BBL for skinny people who want a BBL

A skinny BBL for skinny people is an athletic contour

A skinny BBL for skinny people is a buttock augmentation for an athletic client who wants the buttock contour to look more athletic. The name is newer terminology for that operation. The useful way to read it is to hold two things together: the sporty body type, and the buttock size and shape the client wants.

Athletic clients spend a lot of time working out and want to keep an athletic body type. They typically have skinnier legs, so they want conservative lateral thigh and hip volumes. They also typically have limited body fat available for harvesting and transfer to the buttocks. The body-fat line given for these clients is only 10 to 20% or lower, which is why the harvest is called a challenge.

A skinny BBL with a Brazilian Butt Lift is described as preferable, in the view of most, to butt implants. A later section still says a surgeon will advise on artificial implants. Those two lines stay apart. The fat transfer is not described as an implant.

The harvest is limited, and the transfer is limited

The limited harvest is met with ultrasound-assisted VASER liposuction. VASER liposuction is said to remove 40% more fat than traditional liposuction. No cannula width and no fluid recipe are attached to that 40% figure. The comparison stays 40% more fat. No second percent is used.

Clients seeking a skinny BBL for skinny people also want a limited amount of fat moved. The usual request is refinement of the buttocks rather than a sheer increase in volume. The harder part is reading the specific buttock size and shape that was asked for.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons describes a Brazilian butt lift as fat grafting, the transfer of fat from one area of the body into the buttocks. That sentence is cited for the transfer itself. The 40% VASER comparison, the 10 to 20% or lower body-fat line, the shape rules, and the preference over butt implants are not that sentence.

Size and shape have to be said out loud

A successful result for a skinny BBL for skinny people depends on saying the wanted buttock size and shape. Desires differ from one person to the next. The guidelines named here are a buttock cheek that is minimal to moderately increased in size, a maximally projected upper central buttock contour, and conservative filling of the mid-buttock lateral hip region.

A later description of the same upper buttock says the projection is a moderate increase in the central upper buttock. Maximally projected and moderate increase are both on the record. They are not averaged into one degree of projection.

The lateral hip has two wordings as well. One says conservative filling of the mid-buttock lateral hip. Another says patients typically choose conservative to no filling of the lateral hips and the mid buttocks, because they want a deeper lateral gluteal depression that reads as athletic. Conservative filling and conservative to no filling both stay.

Three names are used for the same drawing aid: the Brazilian buttock lift Tool, the Brazilian Buttock Assessment Tool, and the BBL assessment tool. It uses caricatures so the wanted look can be pointed at and then repeated to the surgeon. No measurement from the drawings is printed here.

Where the small amount of fat is taken

A stable weight, and enough fat to finish the transfer, are both required. The amount to move is estimated from the starting point, from the buttock chosen on the Brazilian Buttock Assessment Tool, and from experience. No gram target and no cubic-centimeter target are stated, so none is added.

An athletic build is expected to mean a very low body fat percentage, which is the same range already given as 10 to 20% or lower. Thinner patients will probably need a 360-degree liposuction fat harvest. That 360 fat deposit harvest is how the small amount of fat is collected for the transfer.

Fat removal in athletic patients is tied to high-definition protocols. Completing the surgery means using high-definition liposuction to take the small fat deposits from the concern areas. An elite athlete may have no concern areas at all. In that case the same high-definition liposuction protocols are described as even more critical, because the fat layers are very thin and the removal runs around the body.

Fat transfer when body fat is low uses liposuction that removes fat from common density areas. No density number is given for those areas.

A proprietary high-definition BBL protocol is named. It uses VASER liposuction and a closed-loop fat harvest and delivery system. The steps inside that closed loop are not listed, so none are added. The surgeon doing the case is described as board-certified, and the reason given is the low body fat percentage.

That closed-loop system is named only beside VASER liposuction. It is not given a filter size, a spin time, or an antibiotic. Before it, the consult looks at the medical history and at the fatty deposits, to judge whether a low body fat percentage still leaves enough fat to move.

Pointing at a caricature is the method given for settling the shape. The three tool names refer to that one aid. After a drawing is chosen, the transfer amount is estimated from the starting body, that choice, and experience. The estimate is not published as grams or as cubic centimeters.

Upper buttock projection and a quieter lower pole

Buttock projection in this pattern sits in the central upper buttock. The increase there is tied to the look of a strong gluteus maximus muscle. That upper fullness is set against a less prominent lower buttock pole, which is described as the look of a fatty buttock. The name used for this pattern is the J-Lo buttock, the shape clients are said to notice in dancers or athletes.

The lateral hip is not where the volume is asked to go. Lateral thigh and hip volumes stay conservative. The upper central contour is the place called maximally projected, and it is also the place called a moderate increase. Both descriptions remain.

Dancers and athletes are the reference for the J-Lo buttock only as a look: more upper buttock, a deeper lateral gluteal depression, and a quieter lower pole. The cheek itself stays in the minimal to moderate range. Lateral thigh volume stays conservative because the legs are already the slimmer part of the frame.

Who is a candidate, and what is said about implants

The consult starts by choosing the buttock, then evaluating fatty deposits and the medical history, so the removal for the transfer can be judged. Recovery time and other cosmetic surgeries are items to consider. No day count for recovery is given.

A surgeon is also said to advise on artificial implants and on breast augmentation when the goal is a certain body shape. That advice sits next to the earlier line that a fat transfer is preferable to butt implants, and next to the line that healing takes much less time than synthetic implants. No healing interval is numbered. The three implant lines are not folded into one recommendation.

Suitable candidates are people who have lost the appearance of the buttocks, or who have an athletic body type. The operation can also sit inside a larger body contouring plan, such as a tummy tuck or liposuction. A separate line says the buttock change can be done without a full abdominoplasty or other major abdominal procedures. Combination with a tummy tuck, and doing the buttock change without a full abdominoplasty, are both stated.

Liposuction can be the harvest that supplies the transfer, and it can also be the separate contouring operation named next to a tummy tuck. Those are two uses of the same word, not a recovery calendar. The comparison with synthetic implants stays a shorter healing time, and that shorter time is not given in days.
