I am confused by ads for brazilian butt lift workout that says it'll get you same results as surgery. They say routines include plies, squats, lunges, explosive moves, plyometrics, touchdowns, kickbacks and dance that will make you shed fat and tone your body. Since you know a lot about the surgery, have you ever seen a patient successful at avoiding surgery by doing this workout?

Thank you for your question. Working out (squats) and surgery results are much different from each other.

The dedication to significantly increase the volume of the buttock by way of exercises considerable. It will not yield the same result as augmentation using your own fat.

Thank you for your question. Exercise can indeed cause the gluteal muscles to grow making the buttocks more shapely, but it won't necessarily give you the same results as a Brazilian Butt Lift would. Please see a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation. This will allow you to discuss your goals and determine if surgery is right for you.

BBL workouts tone muscles and burn fat. A muscular appearance can be attractive, but it differs from the results that are possible with liposuction and fat grafting. Most of my BBL patients want a less athletic appearance and a more curvaceous appearance. You should look carefully at before and after photos, and possibly make an appointment for a consultation with an experienced plastic surgeon. Getting information about exactly what you want is important. Best of luck.
