The Ultimate Guide to Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) Surgery

May 17, 2024 - By Dr. Jules Feledy

Dreaming of a curvier silhouette? Explore the transformative world of Brazilian Butt Lift surgery, where contouring meets enhancement for a shapelier you.

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL, is a revolutionary cosmetic procedure designed to sculpt and augment your buttocks using your body's own natural resources. By utilizing liposuction to harvest fat from areas of excess, we then strategically inject this fat into your gluteal region, enhancing both size and shape while achieving a beautifully lifted appearance.

Where Does the Fat Come From?

In the quest for your dream derrière, we utilize liposuction to extract fat from various areas of the body, including the abdomen, flanks, upper/lower back, neck, arms, and thighs, sculpting those trouble spots while enhancing your curves.

Who is an Ideal Candidate?

Ideal candidates for a BBL are those seeking to refine their contours and achieve a fuller, more sculpted buttock profile. Candidates should have good skin elasticity and be in generally good health, with stable weight and realistic expectations for the procedure.

Fat Removal Limitations:

For outpatient procedures, we adhere to safety guidelines by limiting fat and fluid removal to 5 liters in one session, ensuring your well-being throughout the process.

Where Does the Fat Go?

The harvested fat is delicately injected into the subcutaneous layer around your buttocks, avoiding complications while delivering stunning, natural-looking results.

Fat Injection Quantity:

The amount of fat injected varies based on individual goals and tissue laxity, typically ranging from 100cc for minor contour adjustments to 1100cc for significant enhancement, compensating for natural fat absorption.

Recovery Process:

While swelling, soreness, and bruising are common, many patients find relief with minimal pain medication, often returning to daily activities within days. Post-procedure, a compression garment aids in swelling reduction, while minimizing pressure on newly augmented areas.

Swelling and Bruising Duration:

Expect bruising to subside within 1-2 weeks, with swelling gradually diminishing over 6-8 weeks, though individual experiences may vary based on treatment specifics.

Results and Timeline:

Witness immediate enhancements post-procedure, with final sculpting visible within 6-8 weeks as swelling resolves and fat settles, revealing your desired silhouette.

Repeat Procedures:

Should you desire further enhancement, additional procedures can be considered based on remaining fat volume and desired outcomes.

Cost Considerations:

Embark on your BBL journey with confidence, knowing our comprehensive packages start at $11,500, covering surgeon's fees, facility expenses, and anesthesia costs for a transformative experience.
