    Brazilian Butt Lift

    What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift

    Also Known As a Buttock Augmentation

    Buttock augmentation is a procedure that reshapes and enhances your gluteal area, providing you with an uplifted and shapelier buttock profile. In the past ten years, this procedure has become increasingly popular worldwide, with shapely buttocks often seen as a symbol of femininity and sensuality. The most frequent methods for enlarging and reshaping your buttocks are fat grafting using your own natural fatty tissue (popularly referred to as the Brazilian butt lift).

    WHAT DOES IT COST?

    Brazilian Butt Lifts Start at $15,000

    WHAT IS THE DOWNTIME?

    5-10 Days of Downtime Can Be Expected

    WILL I HAVE RESTRICTIONS?

    Yes. No Lifting for 1 Week and Use of a ``Booty Pillow`` for 6 Weeks

    WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?

    Non-Smokers, Female or Male, 18 - 65+ Years Old and Generally in Good Health

    When To Consider a Brazilian Butt Lift

    If any of the following describe you, a Brazilian butt lift is an option to consider: • If your buttocks are too small for your body frame and you want a more balanced look • If your buttock shape is too flat or square and you would like more curves and a more youthful appearance • If weight loss or the aging process has left your buttocks loose, sagging, or flat • If clothes and swimwear do not fit properly on your figure

    Recovery & Downtime

    You can expect swelling, bruising and some pain after your procedure. You will have compression garments that will need to be worn for a minimum of 6-8 weeks. We strongly encourage 7-10 days of downtime to recover. You will have lifting restrictions for a minimum of 1 week and will need to use a “booty pillow” (included with your patient care bag) for a minimum of 6 weeks for optimum results.

    DO I HAVE TO WEAR A COMPRESSION GARMENT?

    Yes. You will be sent home in a compression garment following your procedure that will need to be worn for a minimum of 6-8 weeks.

    WILL MY INCISIONS BE VISIBLE?

    With a Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL, there will not be any large incisions. You will only have small punctures from the liposuction and fat transfer.

    WHY DO I NEED A BOOTY PILLOW?

    After a Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL, it’s important to avoid sitting on your buttocks for 6-8 weeks. It takes time for newly transferred fat cells to re-establish blood supply. The fat cells are very fragile and susceptible to pressure. Pressure could cause fat cell death and minimize surgical results. The booty pillow’s unique shape is designed to prevent your buttocks from sitting on flat surfaces.
