I am 5'1 125 lbs, I was asked to gain 10-15 lbs for optimal BBL results. While this is probably do-able, I have one question that I haven't seen answered anywhere. How can I make sure I am gaining subcutaneous fat and not visceral? I often avoid trans fat and sugary drinks, they're not in my diet. Is there foods I should be eating to gain this fat that can be used during lipo? Are high calorie protein shakes okay to drink to meet my high calorie intake per day? Thank you so much in advance!
Answer: I was asked to gain weight for BBL. How can I make sure I am gaining subcutaneous rather visceral fat? Your goals as well as your selection of your surgeon are important. Gaining weight is often counterproductive. If you gain weight that is fat, some of the fat will likely be associated with the buttocks. In almost every case, I do not recommend weight gain prior to a BBL. I think it is better to maintain your stable weight.

Answer: The fallacy of gaining weight for BBL You cannot change your own fat distribution. It is not related to the type of food you eat. It is determined by genetics and to some degree hormone balance.

Answer: BBL You do not need to gain more weight for a BBL. High defintion VASER liposuction has changed fat harvesting and fat grafting techniques. This way patients with smaller builds, like yourself, can still have amazing BBL results. If you are a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), the optimal outcomes are achieved with: 1) use of VASER liposuction to harvest the fat, 2) a closed looped system such as Puregraft to process the fat, and 3) strategic micro-packet transplant technique. These three processes have demonstrated over 95% fat graft take. This means that your results will be stable as long as you maintain your weight. As an official VASER trainer, I am routinely referred unhappy BBL patients. One of the most common reasons for disgruntled BBL patients is that patients are not able to accurately communicate their desired buttocks goals to their surgeons. A buttocks assessment tool can be an invaluable tool to communicate to your surgeon the exact buttocks size and shape you are desiring. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a BBL specialist can help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing.
