- Dr. Alex Earle:
Sometimes we get patients that are seeking to have a BBL and I recommend a tummy tuck, instead. A lot of times patients are confused as to why. This has to do with the degree of skin laxity that you have, particularly in the abdominal area, especially in the lower abdominal area, below the belly button. If you've had great fluctuations in weight or massive weight loss, if you've had` multiple pregnancies or simply for other reasons, you have poor skin quality and excessive skin laxity in that area, you're not going to do well with liposuction or a BBL alone. That skin's not going to be able to retract well, as skin won't retract evenly and it's due to the poor quality of that skin. Therefore, it is best to do a skin tightening procedure prior to your liposuction or BBL procedure. This comes in the form of either a mini tummy tuck, a full tummy tuck or an extended tummy tuck, depending on how much loose skin you have.

Another important reason why I may recommend a tummy tuck as opposed to liposuction or BBL has to do with abdominal wall weakness. Certainly after massive weight gain and loss or multiple pregnancies, the abdominal wall maybe come stretched and may become weak and the muscles may separate. When you do that, you may have a little protrusion to the belly and doing liposuction alone won't fix that. The only way to fix that is by doing the muscle repair, which is a part of the tummy tuck procedure. So while I do understand some patients may not want the scar associated with the tummy tuck, the patient has to understand that if we don't do that, they will still have loose skin, they may have uneven skin and they're going to have that weakness of the abdominal wall and they won't be able to achieve that flat, flat belly that they're looking for. So the best thing is to start with that tummy tuck procedure and then proceed three to four months later with your liposuction and BBL.

Best Advice I have heard so far!! Thank you
I'm definitely following this advice. So glad i did my research. Tt first bbl after
This would be great if they did tummy tuck first and then bbl but also they should not charge for the anesthesia the second time if they recommend one at a time 🤷🏻♀️
I agree or some type of discount! But they’re in the business I making money I guess.
I had my TT first also , I love my results
I ll see you January 31 2022 for my tummy tuck. You have any tips on how to lose internal fat ?
Can a fat transfer be performed from the tummy to the glutes and then do the bbl?
I got my tummy tuck first !!!
Does anyone know if he does both at the same time? Bbl and TT?
He does not
If doing the Tummy Tuck first, where will the fat for the Bbl come from?
Dr. Ortega says do the bbl 1st for that specific reason
The dr is not aggressive with the lipo for the tt due to the 1 liter limitations. So typically with a tt they only lipo your flanks so when you come back for the bbl they can take fat from your back, bra roll, arms, thighs or wherever else needed to do the bbl.
Can I change my procedure if I’ve already put my deposit down for a BBL?
Yes. Just contact your coordinator through Klara.
Did you do the bbl? How did it go? Or tummy tuck?
