I lost 150lbs and had a body lift with flank Lipo, muscle repair, and gluteal autologous flap transfer.

I’ve gotten questions about the flap transfer before, so you can read more here: https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Autologous-augmentation-gluteoplasty-with-a-dermal-Sozer-Agullo/9843e3d28e677c8cc1b7ad33ab91d4ce47026366

Be sure to expand the images for some great diagrams. It has a similar effect to a bbl, but was preferred for my procedure.

I’ve been getting lymphatic massages every day (I know every surgeon’s orders are different, but mine wants 10 immediately after surgery). I’m excited to see how it’ll be in a few weeks/months!

Lost 150lbs and needed a full circumferential body lift. Doctor insisted on doing the autogolous flap transfer to avoid the “SpongeBob affect” that happens with a lot of body lifts. Lord knows I lost most of my booty with the weight loss anyway!

I’ve always struggled with body dysmorphia. From 285lbs down to 135lbs. And now this. I know I’m in swell hell territory, but I struggle to see it in the mirror. I’m thankful for my lymphatic masseuse (my surgeon wants them to start on Day 1 post op) who shared these pics with me.
