Brazilian Butt Lift result will be affected by weight loss but proportionally with the rest of you

Armando Soto, MD answers: Will I lose fat from Brazilian Butt Lift if I do butt workouts?

I got a Brazilian butt lift done. I was wondering if I lose a little weight or do butt workouts, will I lose the fat that was injected into my butt?

Hi there-

Building the musculature of your buttock area should not, by itself, cause you to lose the volume gained through your Brazilian Butt Lift procedure.

Because the tissue used to augment the buttocks was after all fatty tissue, however, you probably will lose volume if this exercise results in weight loss and diminishment of fatty tissue throughout your body- in other words the fat in your bottom is going to respond to weight gain and loss just as the fat in other parts of your body.  

I hope that helps you- congratulations on your new fuller bottom!
