The Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL, is a surgical procedure that combines liposuction with fat transfer. Its main objective is to shape and add volume to the buttocks by relocating fat from the patient’s own body.

Fat is extracted from areas such as the abdomen, waist, thighs, or back, and then purified before being carefully injected into the buttocks.

To augment the buttocks with fat, you must have enough adipose tissue, as the surgery involves transferring your own fat. If you are very thin, you may not be a candidate.

Additionally, maintaining good health, eating a balanced diet, and maintaining a stable and healthy weight are essential.

The ideal candidate for a BBL is someone who wants to enhance the shape and size of their buttocks, as well as add volume to certain areas of the hips that require more fullness.

Please note that not everyone is a suitable candidate, as certain factors determine whether this surgery can be performed.

• Have enough fat in other areas of the body for transfer. If you are skinny, you may not have enough fat to perform the procedure.

• Be in good general health, with no serious medical problems.

• Have realistic expectations about the results.

• Be willing to follow the recovery instructions provided by our medical team to the letter.

Although you will notice an immediate change, the final results are typically visible in 6 to 12 weeks. BBL is a personalized surgery, as it is tailored to your needs, expectations, anatomy, and the amount of fat removed.

The results are long-lasting, but it is vital to keep the following factors in mind:

• During the first few weeks, your body will absorb some of the transferred fat, which is normal.  It is expected that one third or more of the fat will not survive the transfer.  It is similar to tossing seeds in an open field; some land in fertile areas, while others may land on rocks, on in a big pile where they cannot take root.

• The fat that is properly integrated will remain in place long term, as long as you maintain a stable weight.  This also means it will behave just as it did in its original location as you gain and lose weight in the future.

• Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, is key to achieving and maintaining your results.

The first step in performing a Brazilian Butt Lift is to schedule a consultation with the surgeon. During this consultation, we will determine whether you are an ideal candidate for this procedure.

In a BBL, liposuction is first performed to remove fat from the body using small incisions. Then, it goes through a purification process, where it is filtered and purified to ensure that the adipose tissue is ready for transfer.

Finally, the fat is grafted into the buttocks, strategically shaping and adding volume to achieve a natural and proportionate result.

This entire procedure is performed under general anesthesia and can last between 2 and 4 hours, depending on the patient.

The cost of a Tummy Tuck can vary depending on the individual’s needs, but on average, it is $9,500.

Recovery from a Butt Lift is one of the most essential steps in achieving ideal results. You mustn’t sit or put pressure on the buttocks area for at least 3 weeks. This will give the fat cells enough time to implant properly.

During the first few days, you may experience some discomfort and swelling. Wear compression garments or a girdle in the areas where liposuction was performed to reduce swelling and help maintain your body’s shape.

Most people can return to their normal activities within 2-3 weeks; however, the final results are typically visible between 3 and 6 months after surgery.
