My question is once this procedure has been completed and say the person really got into some heavy cardio and thus were burning a lot of fat would the body be able to burn the fat that was moved to the buttocks or does it not have the associated blood vessels to enable this?

I’m not even sure if that’s how lipids are metabolised, but I assume it’s through the blood.

    The fat cells behave the same as before they were transferred. The number of fat cells mostly stays the same when you lose weight, just depleting the fat reserves within the them. So yeah, you’d mostly re-gain it in the same cells.

      Thanks.

      As a follow up. With fat burning being random is that random to us as we can’t control it, but the body does know in what order it will do things.

      If the latter does that mean if it was your waist next and that was moved to you bum, would it still be those cells next.
