Plan on getting a BBL, but I am a mail carrier. Will walking me loose the fat I get transferred?

Thanks for your question. After surgery there is a predictable swelling process that mostly resolves over two months, when the final result really settles in.  Walking won't make you lose the fat compared to losing weight in general. 

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well;..based in your question its difficulted evaulate your case if the question dont have a picture, its recommended to get a consultation in personal with a plastic surgeon.

Thank you so much for sharing with us your question.
After a BBL surgery it’s very important to follow your Surgeon protocol and recommendations to make sure that the fat that was injected in your buttocks does not lose it. Normally the patients always lose a little of their weight after a surgery, and if this happens the fat that was transferred to the buttocks as well, but I always recommend after this procedure do a plan with a lot of protein and after 3 months start a Gym plan, that can helps to improve more the results and no matter what work patients has with discipline and a good care after surgery the BBL results will be amazing.
Best of luck,
Dr. Quiroz! 

Walking by itself would not cause you to necessarily lose fat.  If you lose weight and body fat, then you would lose fat in the buttocks as well.  About 50% to 75% of the fat survives. Thus, results are permanent after the first 6 weeks or so.

Dear Dr.Harrydoll2019,
most patients will lose 30-50% of transferred fat after the surgery. Fat viability depends a lot of surgeon technique. The fat has to be placed back into the buttocks as soon as possible so that it has a greater chance of survival. It has to be placed carefully so that not too much fat is placed in only one area. 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.

Thank you for your question! After your fat transfer you are not to sit directly on your butt for 2 weeks.  After 4 weeks whatever fat is remaining will now have a blood supply and should be harder to loose.  You should be fine.  Best of luck!Dhaval Patel

Thank you for your question. Your surgeon will provide you with a post-op advise that you need to follow carefully and get the results you desire. What I recommend you is seek a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
Not walking, by it self, but after a BBL, you lose or gain weight in the same way as before. So, if you lose a considerable amount of weight, the results of your surgery will be affected.
If you have any concerns, I suggest you to follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)

Thanks for writing,As other have said, once the fat has survived, it is there. If you are a mail carrier and you walk, then you are exercising and as a result you are burning calories. If you burn more calories than you take in you will loose weight / fat and that will come from all over your body even your butt.Stephen M.

Walking as a mail carrier will not make you lose the fat from a BBL. If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons.  A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
