You could be a good candidate for a Brazilian butt lift if you are in general good health and would like additional volume in your buttocks to achieve an hourglass shape.

Additionally, a BBL can be suitable for people with petite builds who are unhappy with flat or drooping buttocks, or for those who have achieved a significant weight loss goal and would like to add the finishing touches to their new shape following weight loss.

Brazilian butt lifts can be easily included in a mommy makeover to help women regain their bodies after having their children.

Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Davis take the time to understand your individual goals and customize your procedure to meet your needs.

The BBL is a two-step procedure that starts with traditional liposuction. This can be performed on nearly any part of your body, but the most common is the waist, hips and thighs. Your procedure plan will be customized based on your current figure and your goals.

Next, the fat cells that are removed during liposuction will be sterilized and carefully injected into specific areas of your buttocks to achieve the desired shape and fullness. Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Davis use careful sculpting techniques to give a natural-looking result while still accentuating your curves.

Buttock enhancement is performed as an outpatient procedure, so you’ll be able to return home directly after your appointment.

After your BBL procedure, you will be instructed to avoid direct pressure to the buttocks area and limit your physical activity during the initial recovery period, which can last between one to two weeks. This means you’ll need to sleep on your side or stomach and avoid sitting upright as much as possible except for when using the bathroom.

After two weeks, a donut pillow may be used to reduce pressure as you continue to heal. You can expect to modify these habits for at least the first eight weeks.

You may also be required to wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling and support healthy blood flow to the newly transferred fat cells. While your plastic surgeon will inject a good amount of fat cells, some of them will be reabsorbed into the body.

It’s essential that you follow your BBL post-operative guidelines to maximize your fat transfer survival rate and get the most out of your results.

Although everyone’s recovery experience will differ, most people take one to two weeks off work after their BBL. Over the next several weeks, you should notice swelling start to diminish, allow you to see your final results beginning to take shape.

​Once your Brazilian butt lift results are fully developed, you can enjoy your new, curvier figure for years to come. While recovery and result times will vary, many of our patients see final results around 6 months after their procedure.

To get the most out of your BBL results, it’s important that you maintain a healthy weight as weight fluctuations can change your overall results.
