Does clenching kill fat transfer cells of BBL?!

Question

Hi, I trend to clench my glutes when stressed (I can’t be the only one!). I am curious to know since too much pressure can kill adipose/fat cells in a BBL can clenching also have a similar effect? I am very aware of it so I try not to do it but you know, what if?

Natalia Vidal Laureano, MD, FACS · Answer

Hi! If the fat is injected in the "safe space" subcutaneous space, theoretically it shouldn't be compressed when you clench the muscle. I would advise to try to avoid it just in case, but I don't think it'll significantly impact your results ;)

Hello and thank you for this interesting question! Clenching will not harm a BBL. No need to worry.

Best of luck,

Dear Dazzling01,
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.

Hi! No, clenching your glutes can not kill the adipose / fat cells cells. Because fat cells are placed on the plan on the muscle, not inside the muscle. It doesn't effect your negatively. Best regards.

Thank you for your question! Clenching does not affect your transferred fat. Just in case try to keep your fat by eating nutrient-dense foods and adding in more healthy fats in your diet. Hope that helps, Dr. Cengizhan.
