Medical experts discuss factors affecting gluteal aesthetics and postpartum changes

Medical experts explain that physical exercise alone may not address all aesthetic concerns regarding the gluteal region, such as skin irregularities and contour depressions. Dr. Manoela Fassina notes that while training can increase muscle volume and projection, it may not resolve issues like cellulite-induced skin retractions or depressions that pull on the skin surface.

Furthermore, postpartum changes can significantly impact the firmness, texture, and contour of the buttocks. Plastic surgeon Carine Barreto emphasizes that hormonal fluctuations, fat redistribution, and weight variations during pregnancy influence these changes. Factors such as genetics, age, and skin quality also play a role. Experts suggest that identifying whether a concern stems from skin laxity, cellulite, or volume loss is essential before pursuing specific treatments.
