Overview of Brazilian Butt Lift, Fat Grafting, Butt Enhancement

If you have an unshapely bottom that needs volume while other areas of your body could use less volume, the Brazilian Butt Lift surgery—also known as the BBL—may be just the right procedure for you. Our skilled plastic and reconstructive surgeons—Dr. Rozbeh Torabi, Dr. Ramyar Torabi, and Dr. Radbeh Torabi—can provide the best treatment for you.

While genetics, weight loss, and advanced aging can decrease the attractiveness and/or plumpness of your buttocks, at Elite Plastic Surgery, we can remove excess fat from elsewhere on the body (such as the abdomen) through liposuction. Then, our talented plastic surgeons will inject your harvested and purified fat into the buttocks to develop a rounder and fuller bottom.

Named after the curvaceous derrieres often found on the beaches of Brazil, the Brazilian butt lift improves the contour of your bottom to make you look great in whatever you do (or don’t) wear. Every patient is different, so results and surgical techniques may vary from patient to patient. Call our office today to see what Elite Plastic Surgery can do to get your buttocks looking more plump and shaped.

Do I Qualify?

Prior to the procedure, you will have the opportunity to discuss your cosmetic goals for the buttock augmentation. Your Brazilian Butt Lift surgeon will assess your body to determine if you have enough excess fat to meet your goals and the best areas to perform liposuction. Patients who do not have enough excess body fat may be better candidates for butt augmentation with buttock implants. Your plastic surgeon will help you decide the best procedure for your needs and goals during your initial consultation. Brazilian butt lift is for men and women who have:

Flat and sagging buttocks
Lack of an appealing lower body profile
Gluteal asymmetry and/or buttock defects
For women, the desire to have better feminine and shapely buttocks and curves
Traumatic buttock injuries or buttock contour deformities
Willingness to undergo buttock reconstruction following bariatric surgery
A buttock size and shape not in conformity with their personality

The Procedure

A Brazilian butt lift is usually performed as an outpatient surgery in about two hours under general anesthesia.

The procedure may take longer, depending on the amount of donor sites that are used, as well as how many injections are needed to achieve the desired look. After the lifting procedure, you should expect swelling and bruising of the rear end and the liposuction area(s).

You may have difficulty sitting and may not be able to comfortably do so until the swelling has subsided. Afterwards, your buttocks should look and feel natural. The extra fat from liposuction may be saved and used at the first follow-up appointment to help fill in any unevenness and add smoothness. It will take approximately three months to see the final results. Liposuction is a safe procedure, and most Brazilian Butt Lift patients do not experience any significant complications.

Fat grafting may cause possible swelling, bruising, tissue scarring, nerve compression, or infection unless adequate care is taken during the procedure. An embolism can occur when fat is loosened and enters the blood vessels with signs of pulmonary embolisms, including shortness of breath or difficulty breathing. This is why it is necessary to undergo such surgery from a board-certified plastic surgeon.

Recovery Time and Healing

There will be soreness, swelling, and pain soon after the surgery. You may have to stay in the hospital for a day. Here are a few post-operative precautions you may need after a Brazilian butt lift:

Rest from your job for at least a week
Keep incisions clean and dry
Avoid sitting for a week and do minimum sitting for the next six weeks
Keep walking, running, and intense activities involving the buttocks to a minimum for six weeks
Don’t sleep in a supine position for six weeks
Don’t allow pressure or tension on buttocks for six weeks
Use compression garment for up to six weeks

Swelling and bruising will subside considerably in a week, allowing most patients to resume their work. However, faster recovery is subject to rest, healing, and precautions. Your plastic surgeon will remove the drainage pipes attached after five days. Compression garments must be worn for the first few weeks, with your recovery time taking between one and three weeks, depending on the extent of the treatment and the areas treated. The pressure garments will ensure that the skin is held firmly against your body during the healing process, thus encouraging healing without sagging. No pressure is to be put on the buttock region for six weeks. This means no sitting directly on the buttocks. Patients may sit with a pillow under their thighs. It takes at least six months to experience the full benefits of a Brazilian butt lift. Once the healing is complete, the area becomes firmer, making fuller contours very apparent.
