Why choose a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Enhance your buttocks with a Brazilian Butt Lift, using your own fat from areas like the abdomen, love handles, and thighs. The results not only achieve a shapelier buttocks, but also a flatter abdomen, smaller waistline, and more shapely back and thighs. All with minimal scars and downtime.
Best-suited candidates
Ideal candidates are in good health, seeking buttock improvement, and have excess fat in "donor" sites. Very thin patients with minimal body fat may be candidates for gluteal augmentation with implants or might be advised to gain 10-15 pounds before surgery.
Brazilian Butt Lift surgery details
Liposuction is used to remove fat from the abdomen, flanks, back, or thighs. This fat is then specially processed and reinjected into the buttocks. Buttock Brazilian Butt Lifts are done through incisions concealed within the panty line. A segment of skin and fat is removed from the posterior hip, and the lower back area and sagging buttock skin are lifted and re-contoured. Butt enhancement can be combined with the lateral thigh lift by extending the incisions.
Recovery
Avoid sitting or laying on your buttocks for three weeks post-surgery. Soreness in harvested areas and buttocks is expected for a few weeks. Expect to be sore everywhere fat was harvested from and over the buttock areas for a few weeks. Not all of the transferred fat survives in its new location, so in some cases, you may need more than one procedure to achieve the fullness you want.
Exercise and return to normal activity can be anticipated after about two weeks. Swelling may last from a few weeks to a few months. The effects of this buttocks-augmentation surgery are permanent. It can take up to six months to see the final results of the surgery.
