I posted a question a couple weeks ago asking if I'm a candidate for the bbl. I weight 113 and all the weight is in my stomach,flanks, & thighs. I hear that I shouldn't gain weight & just have the surgery because when yu gain weight the fat cells just get bigger. I really want to gain 10lbs 4 the surgery. I have pictures on my other ? that i posted. Thanks

Answer: Gaining weight prior to a brazilian butt lift
Due to the fact that you weigh approximately 110 pounds, you will need to gain weight in order to be a good candidate for this procedure. Remember that, if you lose weight after surgery, your buttocks will get smaller but your proportions will still be the same. If you cannot gain the necessary weight, having butt implants is the other option that could be considered.

Answer: Weight gain prior to BBL
The question isn't as much should you gain weight prior to BBL, but what happens to the fat when you lose it after the surgery. This unanswered question has not really been look at in great detail so all you'll really hear are anecdotal reports from BBL surgeons. I agree with weight gain for the procedure, it will improve the contouring of the waist to hip ratio when you are ten pounds heavier and if you lose the weight the ratio will persist. I just saw someone in Dallas this week with similar dimensions. Typically, I'll examine the fat pad in the posterior upper buttock region over the lumbar spine (between the dimples on your lower back-upper buttock). If that fat pad there shows about 6cm of thickness then I think you can do a BBL successfully.
