Brazilian Butt Lift

The Brazilian butt lift is a relatively new procedure designed to improve the contour of the buttocks and is a type of buttocks augmentation that results in a more youthful and perky derrière. It is not necessarily intended to increase the size of the buttocks, but rather improve the overall body profile. However, the procedure can be customized to the patient to improve both size and shape.

The procedure involves removing fat from one area of the body through liposuction, purifying the fat cells, and re-injecting it back into the buttocks, so the butt appears lifted and perky. The procedure has a small risk of infection compared to a buttocks implant and has the added benefit of creating a leaner profile from the area that the fat was originally removed from.

What to Expect

For the Brazilian butt lift, you will have liposuction on a few areas of your body.  The fat will be collected and purified.  The fat is then injected through small cannulas to help enhance the buttocks shape and size.  The procedure takes about two hours and you can go home on the same day.  You will need to sleep on your stomach or sides for several weeks while the buttocks heal.  During the day, you are encouraged to stand, walk and limit sitting for short periods of time while the fat heals.  You will see results right away and the final result will be visible after about 3 months after all the swelling has subsided. The Brazilian butt lift is a great way to enhance your natural cures or create curves that you never had.
