What is BBL (Brazilian Butt-Lift)?

What is BBL (Brazilian Butt-Lift)?

BBL (Brazilian Butt-Lift) is a plastic surgery procedure performed to increase the volume and shape of the butt. In this procedure, fat tissue taken from the patient’s own abdomen, waist, or thighs when necessary is injected into the buttock. Its purpose is to make the butt look more round, full, lifted and attractive.

What are the BBL (Brazilian Butt-Lift) Stages?

1. Consultation:

Before every plastic surgery procedure, it is important to have a comprehensive consultation with a specialist doctor. At this stage, your expectations, health history, and questions about the procedure are discussed.

2. Liposuction:

The BBL process usually begins with removing fat from specific areas of the body. This process provides the material to be used to inject fat into the butt area. In addition, liposuction application to the waist and abdomen regulates the waist-butt transition and creates an ideal curve.

3. Fat Processing and Cleaning:

The removed fats are collected in a specially designed sterile container without contact with air. It is cleaned and filtered in the container. This process makes the fat suitable for injection. The cleaned fat is injected into the butt area to the appropriate anatomical level using thin cannulas.

Who are the Ideal Candidates for the BBL Process?

The BBL process may not be suitable for everyone. Ideal candidates may have the following characteristics:

  • Those who have a healthy body weight before the procedure.
  • People who cannot achieve the butt shape they want despite healthy diet and exercise.
  • Those who can easily go through the post-procedure recovery process.
  • Those who experience volume loss or irregularity in the butt area.

What are the Techniques Used in Butt Aesthetics?

  1. Butt Prosthesis (Implant)

Butt prosthesis is a method used to increase the volume of the butt and correct its shape. In this method, a prosthesis made of silicone materials is placed in the butt area. This is an option for people who want to achieve significant fullness and shape.

  1. BBL and Fat Injection

This method, also known as Brazilian Butt-Lift (BBL), involves injecting fat tissue taken from the patient’s own body into the butt area. This method provides both butt filling and body shaping by using fat from other parts of the body.

  1. Gluteal Implant and BBL Combination

This approach may include both the use of a butt prosthesis (implant) and fat injection. In this way, a special solution is offered to patients who want to have a more prominent butt.

  1. Gluteal Lifting:

Butt lift is a method used to tighten the butt area, reduce sagging and achieve a more youthful appearance. Gluteal lifting is a procedure that is mostly needed in patients who have lost excessive weight by undergoing sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, or stomach reduction surgery. This operation requires surgical incisions to reshape the butt skin.

Each method has advantages and disadvantages, and which method to choose should be evaluated on a patient-by-patient basis. Therefore, a detailed examination and consultation by a plastic surgeon helps determine the method that best suits the patient’s needs and goals.

Healing Process After BBL (Brazilian Butt-Lift) Procedure

The recovery process after BBL surgery may vary from person to person, but usually takes 2-3 weeks. The BBL result can be clearly observed immediately after the procedure. In addition, as the edema decreases in the first few weeks, the waist-buttock transition becomes more obvious. However, it may take several months for full results to appear. During this process, the butt area begins to gain a more natural appearance.

What are the side effects seen after surgery?

Edema-Swelling: In the first few days after the procedure, there may be swelling in the treated areas. This swelling may vary depending on the body’s response and is often temporary.. Swelling is felt especially in areas where fat has been removed.

Bruising: Rarely, bruising may occur due to the liposuction procedure. Bruising usually begins within a few days and slowly disappears over a few weeks.

What should be taken into consideration after the surgery?

  • You should regularly use the painkillers and medications that recommended by your doctor, to help reduce edema and swelling.
  • Wearing clothing that creates controlled compression, such as a medical corset, helps reduce swelling and make results appear sooner.
  • Avoid excessive activity for the first few days and rest your body. You should comply with the sitting and lying positions recommended by your doctor.
  • Be careful to drink plenty of water.

What are the advantages of BBL Surgery?

  • Natural Appearance: BBL surgery is an effective method to increase butt aesthetic naturally. Since the fat injected into the butt is obtained from the person’s own body fat, the results provide a natural and proportionate appearance.
  • Compatibility with Tissues: The injection material used in BBL is the patient’s own body fat. Therefore, the risk of rejection by the body or allergic reaction is very low.
  • Minimal Scars: The liposuction process used during BBL surgery usually causes minimal incisions (2-3mm) in invisible areas of the body. Therefore, postoperative scars become almost invisible.
  • Long-Lasting Results: The results obtained after the procedure are long-lasting unless the person gains or loses too much weight. Since the fat injected into the butt is taken from other parts of the body, the appearance in these areas also improves.
  • Fast Recovery: BBL surgery can speed up the patient’s recovery process, especially when combined with the VASER-liposuction method. This means less discomfort and a shorter recovery period for the patient.

What are the BBL Surgery Prices?

Pricing may vary depending on the patient’s personal needs, the number of areas to be treated with liposuction, and the shape of her body. You can contact us for detailed information and pricing.
