Liposuction the transfer is meant to to be long-lasting. If multiple procedures are required to achieve the result this is discussed before any surgery is done. If a revision or additional surgery is required the reasons typically revolve around fluctuating weight.  Therefore, the best solution is to find a surgeon performs this is the result you like and you maintaining a healthy lifestyle and stable weight.

Luis Macias, MD, FACS · Answer

Fat transfer in Brazillian Butt Lift is permanent.  About 70% of the transferred fat survives and remains forever. It will gain and loose weight as you do, so if you loose weight, you will loose some of the fat that is in the cells that were transferred to the buttocks.  But when you gain the weight back, those cells should fill back up with fat that you store.   This is why it is best to be at your target weight at the time of surgery, because if you plan on loosing weight after, you will invariably reduce the amount of fat stored in the fat cells that were transferred to your buttocks. Hope this helps and best of luck.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well. 
After a BBL, about 70% of the transferred fat cells will survive, but this should last permanently, with exercise and a clean diet. Lifting, squats and lunges after a BBL will only help increase muscle bulk and definition and achieve a more projected buttocks.
If you have any concerns, I suggest you follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)

The results of a BBL are permanent. It will take 6-8 weeks to get a good idea with regards to how much of the fat took. Once it "takes", the results are permanent.
