Do I need to gain weight for a BBL or just workout? (Photo)

Dear Nichole9431,
you should avoid getting weight just for surgery as you will also lose your results in case of weight loss. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Dear Nichole9431, thanks for sharing your concerns, in order to evaluate your case more pictures will be needed. Make sure you go on consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Hope this helps and best of lucks! Dr. Luis Mejia.

For BBL, you don’t need to be on high calorie diet if BMI is adequate that is 23-24 and above. Workout doesn’t help in increasing the buttock size but it does help in toning the muscles which post BBL gives a better look.
It’s important to identify the region from which fat is to be extracted so that the skin retracts well in that region.

Gaining weight in your case is useful. It will increase the fat available for use during your BBL. Working out and doing squats will help to achieve your goals as well.

Dear Nichole9431,
Yours is a somewhat complicated question and we do not know the full specifics about your gluteal implant issues. An in person examination would be necessary to determine whether or not you need to gain weight for a successful BBL. Seek consultation with an American Board of Plastic Surgery board certified plastic surgeon for an examination and discussion of your options. In the meantime, get back in the gym and build those glutes! Good luck!

To make assessment for a BBL we need to see better pictures.
Take a look at how plastic surgeons take before and after pictures to get an idea.
I generally do not recommend people gain weight for fat transfer procedures.
Best,
