Can I weight train at all after a Brazilian Butt Lift?

You can exercise after your fat transfer  to the buttock surgery however you should wait at least six to eight weeks before doing so. With weight loss after surgery there will be some reduction in buttock volume/size but you will also lose weight/fat in all areas of your body. Consult with a few plastic surgeons in person to determine if you are a good candidate.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Provided you do eat more than the calories that you expend weight training, I believe squats and other gluteus maximus training exercises will only enhance your results.  Good luck!

Thank you for your question. Congratulations on your BBL surgery. After 6 weeks you can start lifting and exercising. Follow your surgeons recommendations. Best Wishes.

If you get a BBL, you can still work out regularly after the procedure. You just need to consider that if you lose weight then the fat cells in your body will shrink in size and you may lose some of the volume from the injected fat in the buttocks, but also by exercising the muscles in the buttocks can increase in size too. You just need to avoid too much aerobic exercise that may use more of the fat tissue as source of energy and focus more in anaerobic exercise that uses your glycogen storage in your liver and muscles as a soruce of energy.

It will take a good 6-8 weeks for you to fully recover from a BBL.  The injected fat has to be protected and treated extremely gently for the first several weeks in order to maintain its shape as well as to allow a stable blood supply to form around the injected fat cells which ensures their survival. After a month or so one could resume cardio training but no serious weight training, particularly the type that requires sitting or laying on your buttocks, for another 2-4 weeks after that. I hope this infirmation helps!Thomas Taylor, MD, FACSPasadena, CA
