I have a 2 year old daughter and since having her I have put on weight. I currently want to have fat transfer to my buttocks as I have a very flat bottom. I have no exercise routine at the minute but want to start one once I have recovered from the transfer procedure. Will I lose all the fat I have placed on my back side if I start exercising?

Answer: Fat transfer stability 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.

Answer: Exercise after fat transfer 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.
