I Heard That Fat Shows Up in Weird Places After Lipo. Will This Also Happen After the BBL Surgery?

The Brazilian butt lift is beautiful and effective way to contour your torso, create a flat tummy, a small waist, sculpted back, full hips, and round new bottom. One of the most common questions that we hear from our patients here in Miami is it fat will appear in unusual or different areas after the surgery. The answer is no. In the surgery, we will remove fat from one part of the body and place it in another. Human adults will not regenerate new fat or replace the fat that has been removed. The best part of the Brazilian butt lift is that all the tissue that we use is your own. This means no implants, no rejection, and also that his fat will grow or shrink with you as you gain or lose weight in the future. This ensures a natural result.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
After liposuction, the areas treated are not likely to regain fatty fullness, as many fat cells have been removed. These areas have reduced fat storage capacity.
However, if weight gain occurs, the fat will be stored in areas that have not been liposuctioned. This is why you should try to eat healthy and exercise on a regular basis, so you can maintain the results long term.
Hope this helps. Good luck :)

The problem with uran myths and great lies is that they have an element of truth.

Let's first define FAT. The fat you see on yourself and others are collections of millions of microscopic fat CELLS. The fat cells are mini storage rooms whose biological function is to take calories we have eaten but not consumed, convert them into fat and store them.  It's all about the bottom line; to empty our fat cells of their fat storage we must burn more calories than we eat. To keep the fat cels empty we must then burn as much as we take in. Returning to relative inactivity and continued elevated caloric consumption will result in those calories beng stored as fat in fat cells which were previously empty. 

With Lipsuction we permanently remove fat cells from certain areas. We do not remove all the fat cells just some. Unfortunately, some people view liposuction as a replacement for lifetime healthy eating and exercising. It s not. When these people slip back into a sedentary life style with insufficient or no exercise while going up on ther caloric intake, all the fat cells throughout the body will fill up with fat made up from these excess calories. Since the liposuctioned areas have less fat cells, they cannot fill up to the same extent as the untouched fat cells in previously unliposuctioned aras. Ths gives ruse to the urban myth that fat cels somehow move. They don't. 

As we get older and our metabolism slows down we MUST cut down on the amount of calories we take in and increase our activity levels to burn more of the calories we do take in to keep our storage rooms as empty as possible. 

Happy Excercising
