Should I consider a reduction or will weight loss make my butt appear smaller? 27 y/o male (photos)

Providing that you do not want feminine looking and large buttocks, reduction by means of liposuction, even skin excision, is needed. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure is recommended. Good luck

Dear mc4922,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Thank you for posting your question here!My answer will be based on the limited information and pictures provided for a more personalized and detailed plan I would recommend consulting with your plastic surgeon in person.Losing weight will definitely decrease the size of your buttocks , that being said your proportions wont change much as you will likely lose weight everywhere , so if you are not happy with your proportions or if you are close to a healthy ideal weight then you might want to consider a reversal procedure.
I hope this helps, Best of luck!

Hi! thanks for your question. If you're mainly concerned about the appearance of your buttocks, weight loss may help reduce some volume. However, since BBL results often retain shape despite weight fluctuations, weight loss alone may not achieve your desired look. A reduction or contouring procedure could provide more precise results. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon for an evaluation would be the best next step to determine which option best suits your goals.

Really helpful to see copper before and after pictures.
It looks like you have too much fat in the lateral aspect of your buttock.
I generally do not graft in this area as part of a male BBL.
In men I usually focus on the posterior aspect almost exclusively.
Weight loss should be your first option, but there may be potential for improving the outcome simply based on the results we can’t really assess without seeing before and after pictures.
If you don’t have before, and after pictures, then ask your surgeon to forward the pictures they took
Best,
