How does gravity affect a BBL?

Question

A lot of post op pics have no butt lip. The butt is super high. That looks unnatural to me. Some have a lip. Does that depend on the Doctor's placement of the fat? Do the super high butts fall gradually? Does the shape of the butt fall post-op? What is the timeline for the shape of a BBL post surgery?

The result of the BBL depends upon the starting anatomy to be sure but many adjustments can be made to tailor the result to the individual.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA

Nothing can resist or is immune to the rules of Physics and Nature. The larger/heavier a structure is the greater will be its gravitational pull. As the old saying goes - everything must come down. We see it all around us; the large full breasts of yesteryear become the sagging breasts of today. It is for this very reason that surgeons and their patients must discuss not only the desired appearance of the fat grafted butt but also the gravitational consequences of adding weight to a structure which will be pulled down with time. The key is moderation and making sure your surgeon understands what you like and dislike and tells you what is reasonable or not.
