When i heavy lift my butt gets smaller?

I have a bigger than average buttocks but it’s shaped weird from the side and i want it bigger.

However right when i start heavy lifting i immediately notice it losing fat.... 

How can i get it bigger without losing the fat?

    Nothing immediately happens when you lift weights. It takes time to lose fat and it takes even longer to build muscle. 

    If you are losing fat when lifting its because you are not eating enough. Lifting does not cause fat loss. A calorie deficit does.

    You can't. You cannot target areas to lose, gain, or maintain fat. If you are eating to a calorie deficit, your body will use stored fat for fuel. So if you are losing fat when lifting, that would be an indication you aren't eating enough (muscle growth needs a calorie excess, anyway).
