How Long Do Results from BBL for Men Last?
The results from a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) for Men can last for many years, but several factors influence the longevity of the results. The procedure involves two main components: liposuction to remove excess fat and fat grafting to augment the buttocks. The fat that is grafted into the buttocks can last for a long time, but not all of the fat cells survive in the new location. Typically, about 60% to 80% of the transplanted fat will remain, while the rest may be reabsorbed by the body. Over time, weight fluctuations, aging, and changes in lifestyle can affect the contour and fullness of the buttocks, so maintaining a stable weight can help preserve the results.
To maximize the longevity of the results, it is important for clients to follow their surgeon’s post-operative instructions, especially in the early recovery phase. Avoiding sitting directly on the buttocks for a few weeks after the procedure helps ensure that the transplanted fat cells integrate properly. Regular exercise and a healthy diet also contribute to sustaining the enhanced appearance of the buttocks.
While the fat transfer can be permanent, factors like aging or significant weight changes may alter the shape of the treated areas, potentially requiring touch-up procedures in the future to maintain the desired look.
