A smaller waist in a BBL comes from a few key factors.
First, liposuction can remove the fat that blunts your natural waistline.
Second, adding fat to the hips creates contrast — which makes the waist appear smaller.
Compression garments and lymphatic massages also help tighten the skin around the waist during recovery.
The result is a stronger hourglass illusion.
In some cases, newer procedures like rib remodeling are being used to create an even more dramatic waistline.
