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

Weight loss after Buttock Lift (Fat Grafting)
Your concern is a very common one among patients that are interested in the Brazilian butt lift procedure which involves liposuction of various areas of the body to remove unwanted fat and contour the body and injecting this fat into the buttocks to give improved shape and fullness creating a significant change to body contours in general. This is a safe procedure when performed by an experienced Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. This procedure is certainly much preferable to...

How can weight loss effect a Brazilian Butt lift?
A Brazilian butt lift is a safe and effective procedure that combines liposuction of the abdomen hips waist and back and then fat grafting to the gluteal region. This is a safe and effective way to contour the lower body.
After a successful Brazilian Butt lift, the fat that remains is yours to keep. This fat will behave like fat from the rest of your body. If you lose a large amount of weight, some of the fat in this area will also shrink. If you perform a great deal of butt workouts...

Butt workouts after Brazilian Butt Lift procedure
You will not lose your fat, your fat cells will just become smaller. If you gain weight, those fat cells will enlarge. Working out is important part of keeping a healthy lifestyle. Just be sure to not work out that area until 6 weeks after your procedure.

Weight loss and exercise
Where we lose weight is genetically determined. You cannot lose weight by spot area exercise (that is exercising your butt will not make you lose in your butt). Also, exercising your abdomen will not make you loose in your stomach. We lose weight all over more in certain areas depending on our predetermined genetic make up.
If you loose 10-15 lbs it will not affect your butt enhancement beyond that it might.

Brazilian Butt lift and weight loss
As long as your weight gain is less than 10% of your ideal body weight, it is unlikely that you will see any significant change in the volume of your butt lift.

Brazilian Butt Fat Burning Workout?
I would not recommend doing any strenuous workouts of your butt for at least the first 3 months to allow the fat cells to be pretty securely healed. And, even then, I would start off slowly and build up to your max routine.
After that, building up your muscle may increase your buttocks size. If you loose weight due to your workout or burn fat as you build muscle, your fat cells here and elsewhere in your body will shrink. So, keep an eye on things as you progress.

Weight loss after brazilian butt lift
Thanks for the question.
Typically, once the surgery has healed (think 4-6 months), there should not be substantial change in your buttock contour after brazilian butt lift with small changes in weight.
We do counsel our patients that if they are planning to lose more than 50 pounds this may affect the shape of the buttocks after surgery however generally patients with more than 50 pounds to lose may not be ideal candidates for this surgery.
I hope this helps.
