Brazilian Butt Lift
Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian Butt Lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to enhance the shape and volume of the buttocks, providing a fuller and more lifted appearance. Unlike traditional butt augmentation methods that use implants, a BBL utilizes the patient’s own fat, harvested through liposuction from areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs. This purified fat is then strategically injected into the buttocks, sculpting a natural and harmonious contour.
Reasons to have a Brazilian Butt Lift:
- Refine the curvature of the lower body
- Minimize fat deposits on thighs, abdomen, and hips
- Augment fullness and roundness in the buttocks
- Achieve an aesthetically pleasing and youthful contour for flat buttocks
- Enhance the overall balance between the upper and lower body
Procedure
Consultation: Before undergoing a Brazilian Butt Lift, a thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is essential. During this consultation, the surgeon will assess the patient’s overall health, discuss expectations, and determine if they are a suitable candidate for the procedure.
Liposuction: The first step involves liposuction to remove excess fat from areas where it is unwanted. Common areas include the abdomen, flanks, and thighs. The extracted fat is then purified and prepared for injection.
Fat Injection: Once the fat is purified, it is carefully injected into specific areas of the buttocks to achieve the desired shape and volume. The surgeon pays meticulous attention to detail to ensure a symmetrical and natural-looking result.
Recovery and Aftercare
After the procedure, patients are typically advised to avoid sitting directly on their buttocks for a few weeks to allow the newly transferred fat to settle. Additionally, patients may be required to wear compression garments to minimize swelling and support the healing process.
