What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

Using a combination of liposuction and transferring your own fat, a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), or butt augmentation, is a procedure designed to add shape and fullness to the buttocks for patients looking to enjoy a curvier physique. Depending on the patient's details and the specifics of each person's buttock shape, sometimes a butt implant is a better option to give fullness. When you have your personal consultation with your Plastic Surgeon at Coastal Cosmetic Center, he will discuss the plan that is specific to your body and your aesthetic goals to ensure the best result to get the look you desire.

What Are the Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) builds and inspires confidence for anyone looking to fill out tight, low-fitting jeans and bikinis. A Butt augmentation gives you a rounder bottom, which can help to improve the proportions and balance of your figure. One of the other benefits of a BBL is that the fat used to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks is taken from another part of the body that is less desirable. Whether that is your hips, thighs, lower back, and sometimes stomach or arms, many women enjoy the benefits of liposuction to remove the fat from unwanted areas and then move that fat to the buttocks for an enhanced and curvy figure.

Brazilian Butt Lift Before & After

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)? 

Our Plastic Surgeons will help you determine if you are a candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) during your personal consultation. Generally, patients need to have some fatty tissue located on top and below the buttocks or on the lower back, hips, or thighs to be considered eligible for the procedure. This is in order to use your own fat to augment your buttocks.

What Is the Procedure for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

Butt augmentation at Coastal Cosmetic Center begins with liposuction of the hips, thighs, and lower back. The harvested fatty tissue is then purified through a sterile process in the operating room and injected into specific regions of the buttocks to create a curvaceous shape of the hips and butt.

What is the Recovery for a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

The recovery period for a BBL is moderate, and patients should expect to stay off the buttocks and wear a special compression garment for a full two weeks following surgery. Typically, patients can prepare to return to work after seven post-operative days and can resume full and regular exercise within two months.
