Will it be harder to notice glute muscles growing from weightlifting after a BBL since there’s more fat on top of the muscle?

Question

Say someone gets a BBL but still wants an even bigger booty, but this time wants to grow their butt by weightlifting and growing the muscle. Will it be harder and take longer to notice results since there’s more fat on top of the muscle?

Kenneth Hughes, MD · Answer

Hello, thank you for your question. As a bodybuilder myself, I would have to say I always recommend the exercise route to increase buttock size and shape. It takes time, and lot of hard work, but results are very attainable. BBL is a permanent change in distribution of where you gain and lose fat. Doing lot of butt exercises will enhance the result in combination with BBL, if body fat is not reduced. When you start losing body fat, you will lose the BBL fat.

Dear rolypolymoly,
Building your gluts is a great way to enhance your buttock region and I recommend to all of my BBL patients. It not only ads volume to the buttocks but lifts the buttocks in a more anatomic position. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Covering your gluteus muscle with more subcutaneous fat will hide muscle definition to some degree but will not change muscle hypertrophy or any muscle bulk developed from exercise.
