What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a body contouring procedure that enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using fat transfer techniques. This procedure helps create a curvier, more feminine silhouette by redistributing fat from other areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks.
Who Is a Brazilian Butt Lift For?
The BBL is ideal for transgender women, non-binary individuals, and anyone seeking to enhance the shape and proportion of their buttocks. Candidates should have sufficient fat stores for transfer and be in good overall health.
Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift
The Brazilian Butt Lift offers several benefits:
Creates a fuller, rounder, and more lifted buttock appearance.
Provides a natural look and feel, as it uses your body’s own fat.
Contours donor areas (e.g., abdomen or thighs) through liposuction.
Enhances self-confidence and aligns physical features with gender identity.
Procedure Details
The Brazilian Butt Lift typically involves the following steps:
Consultation: Discussing goals and expectations with your surgeon and planning the areas for fat transfer.
Liposuction: Removing fat from donor areas, such as the abdomen or thighs.
Fat Purification: Processing the harvested fat to prepare it for injection.
Fat Injection: Injecting the purified fat into the buttocks to achieve the desired shape and volume.
Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery from a Brazilian Butt Lift includes:
Initial swelling and discomfort subsiding within 2-3 weeks.
Avoiding sitting or lying directly on the buttocks for at least 2 weeks.
Wearing a compression garment to minimize swelling and support healing.
Full results visible within 3-6 months as swelling resolves and fat integrates.
Following your surgeon’s aftercare instructions is essential for long-term success.
