BBL surgery achieves several beneficial objectives. These include: Improved body proportions. BBL surgery isn’t just about enlarging and sculpting the buttocks; it is about enhancing the overall contours of the body. Building out the backside, the BBL can achieve more of an hourglass figure or simply better projection. Body contouring away from the surgical site. The end-goal of the BBL procedure is to add shape and volume to the buttocks. However, to do so, we must sculpt another area, such as the thighs, hips, abdomen, or flanks. Contouring smooths the transitions from one part of the body to the next. Natural look and feel. Some say that buttocks implants feel like tight muscles. The Brazilian Butt Lift process enhances like with like. Buttocks volume comes from fat, not muscle. Introducing natural fat into the buttocks maintains the relatively soft look and feel you’re used to. Fast, lasting results. Many people spend months or years trying to enhance their backside through exercise. The BBL process works quickly, inserting natural fatty tissue where it can live on forever. Although some of the new fat gets absorbed after the Brazilian Butt Lift, most patients undergo this procedure only once to get results they love.

Brazilian butt lift surgery is growing in popularity! During this surgery, we perform liposuction to any area where you have excess fat- often this is the abdomen, flanks, thighs or back. We process the fat and inject it into the buttocks to create volume in this area. SAFE liposuction (Separation, Aspiration, Fat Equalization) is a technique performed that allows for substantial fat to be removed smoothly and evenly.

It can take 3 to 4 hours to complete a Brazilian Butt Lift. Patients can expect to be at the surgery center for about 5 hours on the day of their procedure. After surgery, the remainder of your time at the center is spent in a monitored recovery area getting you ready to go home.

The volume that is retained between 6-8 weeks following a BBL should be a representation for the final results. Assuming there are no excessive fluctuations of weight gain or loss, the results should be permanent.

The Brazilian Butt Lift has gone through a time of questioning its safety. An independent clinical review of the procedure determined that most of the serious complications that had occurred were related to poor training and technique. Since that time, plastic surgeons have refined their BBL techniques to achieve excellent results with few risks. For a safe and successful BBL process, patients must take care in choosing their physician. The Brazilian Butt Lift is not a low-cost procedure in which a bargain deal is a good deal. There are risks such as necrosis, tissue death, infection, embolism, bleeding, and prolonged sensations in the skin. There is also a risk of asymmetrical or unsatisfactory cosmetic results. Expect your plastic surgeon to discuss their surgical techniques with you during your consultation. An experienced surgeon will have practices in place that minimize surgical risks related to this particular procedure. For example, performing a thorough assessment of your body, including where fat is held and the overall shape of the buttocks before surgery. Surgeon’s familiar with this procedure know how to inject fat properly to avoid intramuscular injections and damage to blood vessels.
