Exercise after fat transfer, will I lose the fat where I want to keep it?

When getting a BBL, The fat that survives is there permanently. Around 70% of fat that is grafted is typically expected to survive long term. We also put a little extra to account for loss of fat post operative. After this period where the body loses the amount of fat that is not retaining, exercising will not affect the results dramatically, actually getting fit will improve your shape. That said, you definitely have to choose your surgeon correctly and make sure that he/she has the training and experience to meet your goals with absolute safety. Best is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon with specialized expertise in this procedure.

It is best to lose weight first then get a BBL. Long weight after may cause loss of fat in the buttocks.

My patients start walking on a tread mill a few days after a Brazilian butt lift and can do all exercises by week six. Losing transferred fat by the execrsize is not an issue; fat either takes and stays no matter what, or (in five percent of patients) dosent take. Exercise neither improves or worsens the odds of retaining fat. If anything becoming fit afterwards makes your shape more impressive. See a board certified plastic surgeon who does a ton of BBLs and operates at a certified facility and you'll be in good hands. Ask: how many have you done last year, and request to speak to someone who exercised after a BBL. Dont settle for vague answers, and good luck.

After fat is transferred it is fairly stable. Usually it takes about 1 to 3 months for the stability to be achieved. If you have swings and wait where you increase or decrease in weight the fat that is been transplanted get an increase in size or decrease in size corresponding to the weight changes. Good luck.

Thank you for the question. It is always advisable to lose as much weight as possible before the procedure, preferably to a BMI less than 30. This will help minimize your risks (wound infection, non-healing, etc.) while maximizing your outcome. Having said that, if you lose enough weight, you may not have enough fat for transfer. If you wait to lose the weight after the procedure, then you will most likely lose some of the fat that has been transferred, which would potentially effect your outcome. Consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon for an in-person examination and a discussion of your goals. This will help to delineate your best course of action. I hope this helps. Best wishes.
