I’m 31/f, and have had no children. I really want to get a bbl and a breast lift/augmentation at some point but I’ve ultimately decided to wait until after childre for the latter (I have no plans to get pregnant immediately, but would like to start trying before October 2025). I know a lot of dr’s have said a bbl shouldn’t be impacted by pregnancy, but what should I expect for the results? Will the lipo’d areas be different post partum than if I hadn’t had surgery? Will my butt change?
Answer: BBL and pregnancy Dear Michelle Vasquez,

Answer: BBL While it's true that a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedure should not directly impact pregnancy, it's important to keep in mind that pregnancy itself can have an effect on the results of the procedure. Pregnancy can cause changes in the body's weight, shape, and skin elasticity, which may affect the appearance of the areas treated with liposuction during a BBL.

Answer: how will pregnancy impact BBL results a year or two later? Hello, @Michelle Vasquez, Thank you for your question. Pregnancy can undoubtedly have an effect on your BBL results. Liposculpture, on the other hand, has a memory. This means that when we lower the amount of adipose cells and you gain weight, the fat cells that remain grow in size, but if you watch your diet, those cells shrink. This explains why we see women who have acquired weight and then lose it after going on a diet, or who have become pregnant and gained 30 or 40 pounds and then lost it after the pregnancy. To help preserve your BBL results, it is critical to maintain a healthy lifestyle and weight before and after pregnancy. I link a video to shed more light. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Pregnancy related body changes Pregnancies cause many potential body changes in women. In particular abdominal skin, laxity and muscle separation. If potential weight gain is significant, then skin laxity can be more diffuse, including other parts of the body, like upper and lower extremities and back breast usually and gorge with breast, feeding the loose, volume after causing a loss of volume in the upper half of the breast with potential, lowering of the nipple areola complex called ptosis or droopiness. Pregnancy does not change fat distribution, and the BBL is based purely on fat distribution. Patient should expect to have normal pregnancy related changes, which very substantially based on genetics and potential weight gain with each pregnancy.
