Enjoy the Curves You Deserve with a BBL

This is where the Brazilian Butt Lift comes in, creating alluring curves and enhancing the projection of your rear end with a completely safe fat transfer technique.

Your Brazilian Butt Lift: Love Your Alluring Figure

If you have tried to improve your rear end with diet and exercise but haven’t found yourself enjoying the results you are looking for, the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is here to help. The procedure, developed in Rio de Janeiro, uses fat from your own body to improve the contour of your butt, enhancing your appearance and boosting your self-confidence in a significant kind of way.

Dr. Young Cho has extensive experience with various body contouring techniques and will combine his surgical expertise with a keenly-developed artistic eye to create naturalistic results that will truly enhance your look. To learn more about how we can help you, reach out to us at our Spring, TX location and speak with a member of our team to set up your consultation today.

Which Complementary Procedures Are Best Combined With a Brazilian Butt Lift?

In many cases, cellulite may also be present in the buttocks. Combining the Brazilian Butt Lift procedure with cellulite-reduction procedures such as subcision, Profound RF, BodyTite, and other procedures can further enhance the look of your buttocks. Dr. Cho can discuss these options with you during your preoperative consultation.

We pride ourselves on offering patients over 60 different procedural options, and you’ll choose from a number of both surgical and non-surgical choices as you work with Dr. Cho to create your bespoke treatment plan. We’ll answer any questions that you might have and give you all the information you’ll need to enjoy total peace of mind as you look forward to your results.

Your Butt Lift Options

There are two primary augmentation options for increasing volume in the buttocks: fat transfer and implants. During your consultation, you and Dr. Cho will explore both techniques in detail and choose the option that is right for you, your lifestyle, and your goals.

Fat Transfer

Fat transfer removes body fat from one region and re-injects it into the buttocks. This procedure is also called a Brazilian Butt Lift, but this name can be confused with similarly named exercise programs. Depending on the changes you desire and your available body fat, a fat transfer may be used alone or in conjunction with implants.

Implant Augmentation

Augmentation with implants uses soft, solid silicone implants for an immediate and uniform increase in buttock volume. Unlike fat transfers, where survival of transferred fat varies and may require touchups, implants maintain their volume and don’t need follow-up adjustments. Buttock implants are designed to enhance your contours, appearance, and self-confidence.

The Brazilian Butt Lift Surgical Experience

If you decide on the Brazilian Butt Lift, during the liposuction portion of the procedure, fat will be removed from another part of your body (you and Dr. Cho will choose an area that has plenty of excess fat to spare). Dr. Cho will mark your skin to delineate the areas where fat will be harvested and added. The fat will then be processed before it is then injected into tissues just below the surface of your skin at targeted areas on your buttocks. The injections will be strategically placed to create enhanced curves. 

Fat grafting has the added benefit of further enhancing the body by reducing the fatty tissue layer in selected areas, creating even more contrast with the buttocks. For example, removing fat from the lower back, waist, and abdomen before adding it to the buttocks will create an enhanced contrast with the buttocks than simply adding implants. If you decide on butt augmentation with implants, Dr. Cho will place soft, solid silicone implants for an immediate and uniform increase in volume and projection.

Recovery After a Brazilian Butt Lift

The recovery period after a Brazilian Butt Lift is different for every individual patient and will vary according to the details of your surgical plan. You can plan on taking 10 to 14 days off from work. Your pain should start to subside after around a week, and Dr. Cho will give you instructions to manage your pain. 

You will be instructed to avoid smoking during the first few months of your recovery and should also avoid vigorous exercise for the first four weeks. It is important not to use a heating pad or ice packs around the surgical site to avoid burning your skin. You will see the results of your Brazilian Butt Lift immediately, but it can take a few months before you see the final outcome.

FAQ

Do you offer any alternative procedures?

What else do I need to know?

Are there any risks?

Do you offer any alternative procedures?

For many patients, reducing the volume around the back, waist, and abdomen (e.g. liposuction with or without a tummy tuck) can make the appearance of the buttock seem larger by virtue of creating more contrast. This may be enough for patients who feel they want to limit how much surgery they have in one setting. A non-surgical alternative for buttock augmentation is with Sculptra or Radiesse, although much smaller augmentations are achieved with these procedures.

What else do I need to know?

  • Full recovery may take up to six weeks.
  • Some transferred fat will be reabsorbed by the body.
  • Revision surgery may be necessary to improve results.

Are there any risks?

Some patients find that they have dents or lumps in their buttocks after surgery. In that case, revision surgery may be necessary to correct the problem. Patients face a lower risk of complications if fat injections are delivered just beneath the skin. There is also a risk of an embolism if the injected fat enters the vein.
