Brazilian Butt Lift
WHAT IS A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT?
A Brazilian Butt Lift is a way to increase the size and enhance the shape of the buttocks. This is done by removing fat from undesired areas of the body, such as abdomen, flanks, and/or back, and placing them into the buttocks above the gluteal muscles. By increasing the size, this procedure lifts the buttocks into a higher, more youthful position. The size may also be enhanced by creating a rounder or more shapely buttocks.
WHAT AREAS FAT CAN BE REMOVED WITH LIPOSUCTION BEFORE BEING TRANSFERRED INTO THE BUTTOCKS?
Abdomen
Hips
Flanks (love handles)
Thighs
Neck
Back
Upper arms
WHAT IS YOUR TREATMENT APPROACH TO A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT?
Fat will be removed from other areas of your body and transferred into the buttocks to add volume and reshape it.
WHAT TYPE OF ANESTHESIA IS USED DURING BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT?
General anesthesia is used, and the procedure usually takes around two hours.
WHAT IS THE POST OPERATIVE CARE AND RECOVERY LIKE AFTER A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT?
The recovery from a Brazilian Butt Lift involves not sitting on the area of the fat injections for about three weeks. This allows the fat to settle into position. A compression garment is also used over the areas of liposuction. Pain medication can be given to minimize any discomfort.
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS OF BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT?
The fat that ultimately settles into the buttocks will last permanently. Being cells from your own body, it may also increase or decrease in size with weight change. Since these are fat cells, the feeling of the buttock remains soft and natural. After enhancement of size, the buttocks are lifted to a higher position and more shapely in appearance.
IS A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT RIGHT FOR ME?
You may be a candidate if:
You desire more shapely or larger buttocks
You have areas of depression along the buttocks which you would like corrected
You have sagging buttocks or lost volume over time
