Brazilian Buttock Lift


The Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL), often known as gluteal fat grafting, is a highly sought-after body contouring procedure performed at CK Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles. This innovative surgery enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using your body's own excess fat. Through a combination of liposuction to remove unwanted fat from areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, and strategic fat transfer to the buttocks, the BBL creates a fuller, more lifted, and naturally sculpted backside, while simultaneously refining other body contours. It's the ultimate solution for achieving a more balanced and curvaceous silhouette with natural-looking results.

Features & Benefits

Improved Aesthetic Appearance

Excess skin and tissue in the thigh area can cause discomfort, chafing, and irritation, especially during physical activities or when wearing certain clothing. Thighplasty can alleviate these issues by removing the excess tissue, making it easier for individuals to engage in physical activities and wear clothing that may have been uncomfortable or restrictive before the surgery.

Enhanced Comfort

Excess skin and tissue in the thigh area can cause discomfort, chafing, and irritation, especially during physical activities or when wearing certain clothing. Thighplasty can alleviate these issues by removing the excess tissue, making it easier for individuals to engage in physical activities and wear clothing that may have been uncomfortable or restrictive before the surgery.

Increased Self-Confidence

Many people who undergo thighplasty report an increase in self-confidence and body satisfaction. By achieving a more attractive and balanced thigh contour, individuals may feel more comfortable and confident in their appearance, which can positively impact their self-esteem and overall quality of life.

Long-lasting Results

Thighplasty provides long-lasting results. While it’s important for patients to maintain a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise to preserve the results, the removal of excess skin and fat is permanent. This means that patients can enjoy the benefits of their thigh lift for years to come.

1

What is a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL)?

A Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) is a surgical procedure that involves two main steps: first, unwanted fat is removed from other areas of your body (like the abdomen, hips, or thighs) using liposuction. Second, this harvested fat is purified and then strategically injected into the buttocks to enhance their size, shape, and projection, creating a fuller and more lifted appearance.

2

How long does BBL recovery take?

The initial recovery for a BBL typically involves avoiding direct pressure on the buttocks for at least 2-3 weeks (requiring sleeping on your stomach or side, and using a special BBL pillow for sitting). Swelling and bruising will be present, gradually subsiding over several weeks to months. Most patients can resume light activities within 1-2 weeks, with final results often visible at 3-6 months.

3

Are BBL results permanent?

Yes, the fat cells that successfully "take" and survive the transfer process become a permanent part of your buttocks. However, not all transferred fat cells will survive, and typically 60-80% of the injected fat remains. Maintaining a stable weight after the procedure is crucial, as significant weight fluctuations can affect the results.

4

Am I a good candidate for a Brazilian Buttock Lift in Los Angeles?

You may be an ideal candidate for a Brazilian Buttock Lift if you desire increased buttock volume and improved shape, have sufficient excess fat in other areas of your body for transfer, and are in good overall health with realistic expectations. A personalized consultation with Dr. Kim at CK Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles is the best way to determine if this procedure is suitable for your aesthetic goals.
