"Bulking" After Liposuction ?

alphaokc
I recently had liposuction on my love handles and abdominal area with great results. I've always been "skinny fat" in the areas treated, and now I feel more proportional. I am planning to bulk and start bodybuilding, and was wondering where the excess fat would accumulate. I understand that fat cells don't regenerate, so will the fat redistribute to other areas such as the glutes?
