Liposuction with Fat Transfer to Buttocks (Brazilian Butt Lift)

A big, round and pert booty is without a doubt one of the most desirable features of the female form this century. However, if you aren’t blessed with a naturally generous buttocks, you may be wondering if there is a way to make yours larger and fortunately, there is! A cosmetic procedure known as a Brazilian Butt Lift or BBL for short, works by taking some of your own fat from an area of your body, purifying it and inserting it back into the buttocks. This is a straightforward and very effective process. One of the reasons that many surgeons prefer fat transfer for a butt lift rather than implants is that your body is much less likely to reject its own cells.

The BBL procedure is usually carried out while you are under a general anesthetic, meaning that you are asleep for the duration. First, liposuction is used to remove fat from the pre-designated area of your body. This is usually somewhere with an abundance of fat such as the hips, stomach or thighs. Once the fat has been removed, it is purified and prepared for reinsertion into your buttocks, which is done through a series of injection. Finally, all of the incisions are closed using sutures and left to heal.

After BBL surgery, patients are given a compression garment to wear which helps to minimize swelling and reduce any post-procedure bleeding. It can take several weeks for any swelling and bruising to subside as well as for the final result of the procedure to become clear.
