What Is the Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure?

A Brazilian Butt Lift, commonly called a BBL, is a highly sought-after buttock augmentation procedure that creates a shaped and voluminous rear end through a natural fat transfer technique. Unlike other methods such as silicone implants or Sculptra fillers, the BBL procedure is unique in that it utilizes your own body’s natural resources.
 
Dr. Li uses a targeted 3D liposuction technique to remove fat from the back, flanks, abdomen, and thighs. This unwanted fat is gently extracted from these areas after it is strategically chosen based on your body’s fat distribution. Once the fat is harvested, it undergoes a processing stage to eliminate excess fluids and impurities, leaving only the purest fat cells. With his artistic eye, Dr. Li then injects these processed fat cells into different areas of your buttocks and hips. This carefully tailored process not only enhances your curves but also gives you that coveted hourglass silhouette.
 
The Brazilian Butt Lift is not just about adding volume; it’s also about sculpting and refining your proportions to create a beautiful and harmonious figure. By focusing on the ratio between your hips and waist, Dr. Li enhances your body’s natural contours to provide you with uplifted, well-defined buttocks and hips that beautifully accentuate the rest of your physique.

Yes, the outcomes of a BBL are very long-lasting. This treatment offers you a beautifully enhanced silhouette that stands the test of time. However, like any transformative procedure, a bit of patience is key.
 
After your surgery, it’s very common to eagerly anticipate the final results. While you’ll likely notice some immediate improvements, the full extent of your enhanced figure will take a little time to unveil itself, usually within a 6-month period. This gradual transformation is a result of the settling and integration of the transferred fat cells.
 
After your healing process is complete, there are some steps you can take to ensure your stunning results remain a permanent fixture. When maintaining BBL results, a little effort on your part goes a long way. It’s advised to maintain a healthy and stable weight. Weight fluctuations, whether gaining or losing, can impact the longevity of your BBL. By staying within a consistent weight range, you can preserve the beautifully sculpted contours that you’ve worked hard to achieve.

Determining whether a Brazilian Butt Lift is the right choice for you involves a thorough consultation that encompasses the discussion of various factors. In your consultation, you will explore if this transformative procedure aligns with your aesthetic goals and health considerations with Dr. Li’s guidance.
 
In most cases, if you’re at a healthy weight, prioritize a smoke-free lifestyle, and have ample fat in areas like your abdomen, back, flanks, and thighs, you’re off to an excellent start for BBL candidacy. A regular exercise regimen and a dedication to general wellness further enhance your suitability for this procedure. Moreover, if you’ve sailed smoothly through recent cosmetic procedures, without the presence of any infections or complications, you’re more likely to have a successful BBL experience.
 
However, if a surgical approach isn’t the best fit for your unique circumstances, there’s no need to be discouraged. Dr. Li’s expertise extends to alternative options such as the liquid BBL, a procedure that harnesses the power of injectable fillers such as Sculptra or Renuva. Our team ensures that even if one path is not your optimal choice, there’s almost always a personalized avenue to attain your dream look. In your consultation, Dr. Li will help you navigate all of these considerations and steer you toward the most suitable treatment.
