Brazilian Butt Lift: Q&A

Is It Worth It To Gain Additional Weight for Brazilian Butt Lift?
I've already went from 127 lbs to 140 lbs in 4months just for the procedure, but i've heard it won't be "more effective". Is this true? Why or why not? Any facts regarding this would be ideal. I still have another 3 months to turn my workouts back to heavy cardio...anyway I'm confused....I just wanna make sure this tummy tuck & Brazilian butt lift will be worth the weight gain & everything else that goes with it.

Weight gain is helpful provided the fat you gained is external and accessible for harvesting. See your BCPS for advice on how much is enough. Thank you for your question and good luck.

Gaining weight prior to Brazilian butt lift
Gaining weight before a Brazilian butt augmentation depends on your body shape prior to surgery and the body shape that you desire after surgery. If you certainly want to have significant results, then, I always recommend my patients to gain weight prior to surgery. In general, you need to be at least 20 lbs. heavier than your ideal weight for this procedure to be successful and to have enough fat to increase and reshape your buttocks and hips. The key is to not only...

Brazilian butt lift and preop weight gain
Weight gain is the wrong thing to do before the Brazilian butt lift! Fat cells don't replicate when you gain weight each cell gets larger and when you lose weight each cell gets smaller but you don't get more cells. This is the reason why a weight gain does not help the Brazilian butt lift.
If you gain weight before the surgery you'll transfer the same number of fat cells you would have if you didn't gain weight. The only difference is you will be transferring bigger...

Gaining Weight For Your Procedure
If a patient does not have enough fat for the procedure or fat that is considered “usable” fat, then I will recommend for a patient to gain weight. To ensure you are gaining weight in the right areas (which are the areas the surgeon plans to liposuction your fat cells), have a post-consult visit with your surgeon in order to determine that you are on the right track to having surgery.

Weight gain for BBL. Is it necessary?
A Brazilian butt lift is reshaping the buttocks with fat grafts to increase posterior projection and add roundness to the buttocks. The procedure is really two operations. It is not enough just to collect fat and inject it into the buttocks, but it is imperative that the surgeon rershapes and subtracts fat from above the buttocks, waist line, inner and outer thighs and lower back .The combination of these surgical procedures gives a desirable and sexy buttock. If you gain weight, your fat...

Weight gain before brazilian buttock lift
If you do not have enough donor fat then gaining weight will be helpful for your ultimate outcome with a fat transfer to the buttock. The areas where you gain weight are more important than the actual weight. Your plastic surgeon should evaluate you to determine that the weight you gained is "useable" fat for the procedure. Check in with your plastic surgeon prior to further weight gain to be sure you are at a reasonable weight.
Best wishes,
