Does "Fluffing Out" Months After a Bbl Really Happen?

Question

I hear from a lot of ppl that has gotten a Brazilian butt lift, that although u lose some volume in the beginning from the swelling going down and loss of some fat cells. After several months, your butt will begin to "fluff out", get bigger and rounder. Does this actually happen?

dear patient : thanks for your question. I get a lot of questions like this one in my practice.  The Fat that is transferred to your Buttocks goes through a period of transition.  After six months, about 50 to 60% of the fat cells will survive, based on the Plastic Surgeon’s technique.  The cells that survive will get bigger if you gain weight and that would be your “fluffing” effect you are talking about.  
Always remember to choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who is a specialist in Fat Transfer.  Also talk to your surgeon about realistic expectations and techniques for Fat Grafting.
Hope all this helps!

All I can tell you is that in the last few months I did 6 butt augmentation with implants on patients that had fat injection . It almost completely disappeared in about a year after the procedure and never fluffed out.

If sufficient amount of fat is transferred you should have a great result that is stable for as long as you keep your weight stable.
