Brazilian Buttock Lift

If you want an hourglass figure and a perfectly shaped butt, it’s time for a Brazilian buttock lift! With a Brazilian buttock lift, Beverly Hills, CA, patients can achieve a contoured rear end that looks fuller and curvier.

Your Consultation

When you choose to get a Brazilian butt lift done, you will first meet with Dr. Joshua Jacobson for a consultation. During this, you will talk about your cosmetic goals for the surgery.

Dr. Jacobson will perform a physical examination of the buttocks and the areas where excess fat is present. The two of you will also discuss your complete medical history. A Brazilian butt lift may or may not be best for you depending on your medical history and current overall health.
Next, Dr. Jacobson will go over the details of the procedure. Preparation steps will be discussed, as will recovery directions. Feel free to ask questions and voice any concerns.
To prevent complications during and after the procedure, you will be advised to stop smoking or vaping for four weeks prior to and four weeks after the surgery. You will also need to stop any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications like aspirin a week before the surgery.

What Is a Brazilian Buttock Lift?

The Brazilian butt lift (also called the BBL) is a buttocks-enhancement procedure that involves implanting the patient’s excess fat from a different part of their body into their buttocks to augment its shape. Fat can also be injected into hip dips (indentations below the hips) to reduce their appearance.

During a BBL, gentle liposuction is used to remove fat from an area where excess stubborn fat is present. This contours and sculpts the area for an improved figure. After the fat is purified, it is either injected into areas of the rear end for enhanced volume or injected into hip dips to even out the area.

Good Candidates for a Brazilian Buttock Lift

Healthy adults between the ages of 18 and 65 can opt for a Brazilian buttock lift. It is important for the patient to have enough excess body fat to be used for grafting.

The procedure is perfect for people who:

  • Have a flat or shapeless buttocks
  • Have an asymmetrical buttocks
  • Have a sagging buttocks
  • Have a disproportionate buttocks after losing a lot of weight
  • Want to get rid of their hip dips
  • Want the appearance of wider hips and an hourglass figure

How Does a Brazilian Buttock Lift Work?

The procedure is a minimally invasive surgery and will be carried out under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. After the administration of anesthesia, Dr. Jacobson will use gentle liposuction to extract fat from areas like the back, tummy, love handles, or thighs.

Before introducing the extracted fat into the buttocks, the fat will be purified. Only fat cells of a certain size and quality are selected for implanting. Dead and damaged fat cells will be removed.
Once the fat has been purified, it will be implanted into the buttocks at various tissue depths using multiple injections. Dr. Jacobson never injects fat into the buttock muscles, and the fat is only injected above the muscles. This ensures that the procedure is safe.
The fat cells act as a graft, forming a smooth layer under the skin, and reattach themselves to the blood supply. The grafted fat improves the shape and size of the buttocks vastly.

BBL Post-Surgical Care

After the BBL procedure, it is normal to experience some temporary bruising and swelling at the site of the injections and the harvest site. These issues will fade during the recovery process. Any discomfort felt after the procedure will pass in a few days.

You will be required to wear a compression garment for a few weeks after the procedure to ensure that the graft takes and to minimize the loss of grafted fat cells. Time off from work will also be necessary.


BBL Post-Surgical Instructions

Patients will be provided with instructions they need to follow after a Brazilian buttock lift. With these instructions, they can reduce recovery symptoms and get the best results possible from the procedure. Some instructions may vary depending on the patient, while others are given to all patients.

  • Use ice packs to help reduce swelling.
  • Get out of bed early in the recovery process and walk with assistance.
  • Sleep on your stomach.
  • Follow instructions when taking pain medications.
  • Wear a compression garment for six weeks.
  • For diet, start with clear liquids then gradually switch to a soft diet for the first three days.
  • Drink plenty of fluids.
  • Use a “booty pillow” to avoid putting pressure on the buttocks while sitting.
  • Perform light massages on the liposuction-treated area to boost recovery.

During recovery, it’s best to avoid:

  • Lying or sitting in a position that applies pressure on the buttocks
  • Smoking, as it can disrupt wound healing
  • Resuming a normal diet right after the procedure
  • Eating spicy and salty foods
  • Performing strenuous activities, including driving and working out, for the first couple of weeks of recovery or until allowed by the doctor
  • Sexual intercourse
  • Hot tubs, jacuzzis, or swimming pools while the incision has not yet fully healed
