“Patients with insulin resistance or metabolic syndrome tend to be more of an apple shape and carry most of their fat in their midsection. “Insulin resistance and prediabetes can affect body shape,” Bachilo explains. This is why V-shaped butts, for example, can be more common in older women: Lower estrogen levels result in fat redistribution from the butt toward the abdomen or midsection.Ĭertain medical conditions can affect butt shape, too. “Classically, I see my postmenopausal patients lose their hourglass shape,” Bachilo says. This means you might start losing some of your butt’s firmness or bounce.Īfter menopause, when your estrogen levels dip, you’ll likely see your fat redistribute once again, leading to more changes. Then, as you get older, your skin cell turnover and collagen production starts slowing down. This can temporarily change the appearance of your butt. “In pregnancy and during breastfeeding, tend to accumulate more fat in their hips due to temporary hormone changes in their body,” Bachilo explains. “Nothing is really set in stone with the shape of our bodies,” Bachilo says.įor example, fat distribution, including your butt, will change once you start puberty.Įstrogen will cause fat to be distributed to your butt and hips around this time, which is why you’ll start to see your curves develop.

If fat needs to be removed, we would recommend fat dissolving injections or liposuction.” If there is desired improvement with the muscles, then we would recommend seeing a trainer or using a muscle-stimulating device, if fat needs to be repositioned, we would recommend fat transfer. We will look at the fat, is it distributed as the patient wants, is there a banana roll underneath the butt, are there hip dips, is there cellulite. “Treatments will be different with different patients and is very individualised. ![]() These treatments can help “shape, smooth, and build muscle in areas of the bum using a combination of these approaches depending on what the client's goals are. We work with each of our clients to tailor a program that's specific to their body and their goals. Whether its weakened skin causing the appearance of cellulite, stubborn fat pockets or shape/definition from underdeveloped muscles in the area, we can help without surgery or downtime.”ĭr Naomi says that working with the patients to achieve an end goal, or end booty shape is key. Well, the good news is, if you aren’t happy with it, it can be changed.įrom the old faithful squat and other booty shaping and toning exercises through to cosmetic treatments, there are a huge range of derriere transformations that can be achieved.īarakat Light says, “non-surgical treatments on offer at Body Catalyst for shaping the bum include fat freezing, skin tightening, fat cultivation, cellulite reduction treatment, muscle strengthening and defining treatment.” So uneven bum, heart shape, square, in between – what happens if you don’t like the current shape of your derriere? ![]() Like all parts of our body - arms, legs, breasts, it's hard to be perfectly even,” she says.

I feel ya – I think that I personally belong to my own unique category, the ‘no bottom, bum’ (the one that makes even the tightest jeans sag in that one particular area). But what happens if my bum doesn’t fit into one of these groups, I hear you ask? So, with that in mind sourcing underwear with extra material in the back and choosing high rise jeans is recommended.
