The Brazilian butt lift (BBL), a popular cosmetic procedure, reshapes your buttocks using fat from other areas of your own body. It’s known for delivering natural-looking but noticeable results, and if you’re curious to know more, you’ve come to the right place.
Brazilian butt lifts boast patient satisfaction rates of 86%, largely due to a combination of aesthetic outcomes and the use of minimally invasive techniques. There are a few reasons why it has such a high satisfaction rate; let’s explore why.
Tiffany Su, MD, and our team at Skin Shop Med Spa are here to answer your questions about Brazilian butt lifts, and we offer an appealing alternative, too: Sculptra® biostimulatory aesthetic injectables.
One of the standout features of the BBL is that it uses your own fat instead of implants to create fuller, shapelier buttocks. Using natural fat helps give you a natural look and feel, and it also reduces your risk of complications associated with synthetic materials.
The procedure typically uses fat from areas like your abdomen or thighs, and your surgeon reshapes those areas to make sure your butt lift looks balanced and harmonious with the rest of your body.
The BBL offers a two-in-one benefit: body contouring and buttock enhancement. Liposuction removes unwanted extra fat from areas like your stomach, hips, or thighs, and fat transfer moves that fat to your buttocks.
That means getting a BBL can enhance your overall silhouette — not just your behind. Patients often feel more confident following BBLs because of their new curves and the slimming effects in other areas.
Your surgeon tailors your butt lift for your body and your aesthetic goals, making BBLs highly personalized procedures. Do you want subtle enhancement or a dramatic transformation? Either way, your surgeon can customize the procedure to help you achieve your desired proportions.
This level of personalization ensures that your results align with your body type and meet your aesthetic expectations, which in turn, leads to higher satisfaction rates overall.
Compared to procedures that use implants, the BBL is less invasive and typically involves shorter recovery times. Once the fat has successfully integrated with your body, the results can be long-lasting, especially when you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle.
With its proven track record of high satisfaction rates, there’s no denying that the Brazilian butt lift is a cosmetic procedure that’s here to stay. But that being said, it is a major surgical procedure that comes with discomfort, recovery time, and scarring.
So if you want a perkier behind without undergoing major surgery, are there still options for you? The answer is yes!
Dr. Su and our team offer Sculptra injections to lift your butt without a BBL. Sculptra is a nonsurgical treatment that works by stimulating collagen production. Over time, the injections help improve volume and create a more rounded, lifted appearance.
It’s a gradual and minimally invasive approach that delivers subtle, natural-looking results without the downtime of surgery — and it could be a good option for you.
