I've had a bbl done 6 weeks ago and it has gone down a lot, more than I would have liked. Can I do squats and lower body exercises to make it bigger?
Answer: BBL Question Thank you for your question.Your buttocks will look slightly smaller than it did right after surgery because the swelling will begin to resolve and some of that fat cells will not survive. Fat survival after fat grafting depends on a few things such as technique used, anatomy, genetics, post operative care etc. Best case scenario, usually about 70% of the transferred fat will survive. Within the first 6 months, about 30% of the fat cells will not survive and will be reabsorbed and passed through your body. Whatever fat is remaining after 6 months, is what will remain as long as your weight remains stable. I suggest you consult with your surgeon and express your concerns. Best of luck with your recovery.Sincerely, James Fernau, MD, FACSBoard Certified ENTBoard Certified Plastic SurgeryMember of ASPS, ASAPS, ISAPS, The Rhinoplasty Society, AAFPRS, OTO/HNS, ASLMS, International Federation for Adipose Therapeutics & Science

Answer: Can I grow my butt bigger after BBL? I wouldn't recommend doing butt exercise until at least 6 months post BBL. Once the donor sites loose swelling too , you might be able to appreciate your butt shape better. Gaining some weight will grow your butt after BBL . Best regards
