Brazilian Butt Lift

How Does The Brazilian Butt Lift Work?

Buttock augmentation is the process whereby your surgeon uses fat grafting techniques to create a more firm and rounded behind. Your desired butt is achieved through the artistic precision and expertise of your surgeon which involves the following steps:

1. We will first use liposuction to carefully remove unwanted fat from the arms, hips, thighs, or abdomen.
2. This fat is then treated gently, using special techniques to help filter, wash, and purify the fat, then prepare it for transfer and injection.
3. Once it is ready, the fat is strategically injected into various parts of the buttocks, and at various depths, to create a rounder, more defined rear end with natural-looking, long-lasting results.

The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia and compression garments are applied once the surgery is complete.

Some buttock augmentation patients may find that a touch-up is necessary after some time, as a percentage of the fat may be processed by the body. Established fat that taps into the circulation system can remain permanently in its new position.

The Benefits of the Brazilian Butt Lift

A Brazilian butt lift is helpful for those who have recently lost weight and want to add shape to their new figure. The lift is the perfect opportunity to enhance your natural features. Especially for women who are affected by the changing shape of their bodies as they age.

Am I A Candidate For A Butt Lift?

You are an ideal candidate for buttock augmentation if you have enough fat in at least three areas of the body that is suitable for transfer to help reshape your buttocks. In addition, you would need to meet the following requirements:

• Be at your ideal healthy weight
• Not had any recent surgery-related complications or infections
• Be unhappy with the shape of your butt
• Live a healthy lifestyle – exercise regularly and refrain from smoking

If you are hoping to reduce sagging in your backside, create shape and curves out of flat buttocks, or balance out your overall curves, you have the perfect opportunity to do so with a Brazilian butt lift.

What Other Procedures Can Complement My Brazilian Butt Lift?

Depending on the reason for your butt lift, you may also consider the following procedures to complement your newly created curvy and firm derièrre.

• Breast augmentation can add more volume to your overall feminine curvature and shape
• If your Brazilian butt lift was due to a significant amount of weight loss then you may also benefit from a thigh or arm lift, or tummy tuck to help smooth out loose flabby skin.

Dr. Yamini and Svehlak can advise on these during consultation should you consider additional procedures to complement your butt augmentation.

What Is Recovery Like?

Most Los Angeles patients can return to a desk job in about one week. In some cases, with additional procedures, or extensive use of liposuction, a patient may need extended recovery time. During recovery, it is important to minimize pressure (such as sitting) on the fat grafted sites (buttocks). This will allow for the best survival of the transferred fat.

Patients can usually return to full activity levels within three to four weeks. At this time, bruising and swelling after buttock augmentation will have receded significantly, though some slight signs of the surgery may remain for several weeks beyond this.
