Procedure: The Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) is a surgical procedure that enhances the shape and size of the buttocks. It involves a combination of liposuction and fat transfer. Excess fat is first removed from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs using Vaser liposuction. The harvested fat is then purified and injected into the buttocks to create a more lifted and shapely appearance.
Recovery Time: The recovery period for a Brazilian Buttock Lift can vary, but typically is 2-3 weeks. Patients will need to avoid sitting or lying directly on their buttocks for a certain period to ensure the transferred fat survives and doesn’t move to unwanted areas.
Pre-operative Preparations: Pre-operative preparations may include a physical examination, medical history, and discussions about the desired outcome. Patients may be advised to discontinue taking certain medications and follow specific pre-operative instructions, such as avoiding smoking and alcohol consumption.
Eligibility: Suitable candidates for a Brazilian Buttock Lift are individuals who desire a fuller and more rounded buttock contour and have adequate donor fat for the procedure. A consultation with a plastic surgeon specializing in BBL is necessary for evaluation and to discuss expectations.
