Learn More About a Brazilian Butt Lift
Buttock lift surgery, also known as (Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL), is a procedure that uses a specialized fat transfer technique to reshape the buttocks. Removal of excess skin and either reducing or increasing the amount of fat in the buttock, depending on the patient’s individual needs, results in a natural look, smoother skin, and a rounder and better-proportioned buttock.
BBL’s are not implants. Alternatively, liposuction is used to remove extra fat from the hips, abdomen, lower back, or thighs. After it’s removed and purified, a portion of the fat is precisely injected into the buttocks. Unlike the name suggests, a Brazilian Butt Lift is not a “traditional” lifting procedure. If you are looking for something to address sagging or excess skin in the thigh and buttocks area, then a different surgery would be better suited for you. Talk to your Dr. and see what is recommended for your specific wants and desires.
Many wonder if it’s permanent. The short answer is yes. However, you can still gain weight and therefore add volume to your derriere or lose weight, which can cause your back side to shrink.
So, are you a good candidate? Ask yourself these questions:
- Do I want to increase the size of my buttocks without implants?
- Have I lost some shape and volume over the years or because of weight loss?
- Am I in good health and have an active lifestyle?
- Will I be able to find time to recover? (At least 2 weeks)
- Do I have enough fat in the other areas of my body to be able to transfer?
With a mediocre recovery time and an average price tag of $9,700-$12,000, you will need to make sure it’s a right fit for you. You can call or email Bala Better Health Philadelphia’s Premier Medspa to make your consultation.
