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.

Simultaneously reduces unwanted fat from donor areas (e.g., abdomen, thighs, flanks) through liposuction while enhancing buttock volume and shape, offering a comprehensive transformation for a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing figure.
Once the transferred fat cells establish a new blood supply and "take" in their new location, they become a permanent part of your buttocks, providing long-lasting results that grow or shrink naturally with your body.
Utilizes your body's own fat for augmentation, ensuring a soft, natural feel and a seamless, organic enhancement that integrates beautifully with your existing physique, avoiding an artificial appearance.
By sculpting both the donor areas and the buttocks, the BBL procedure effectively rebalances your body's proportions, contributing to a more desirable hourglass or curvy silhouette.

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.
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.
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.
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.
