BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT (BBL)
The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a popular cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape and volume of the buttocks using a two-step approach: liposuction and fat transfer. This treatment aims to create a fuller, more rounded appearance while also contouring the surrounding areas of the body.
Anaesthesia
General anaesthesia or sedation is typically used to ensure patient comfort during the procedure.
Side Effects
Possible swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas, which typically resolve within a few weeks. There may also be risks associated with fat transfer, including fat absorption.
Treatment Time
Approximately 2-4 hours, depending on the extent of liposuction and fat transfer.
Target Areas
Primarily the buttocks, with liposuction targeting areas like the abdomen, thighs, or hips.
Downtime
Patients are typically advised to avoid sitting directly on the buttocks for several weeks to ensure proper healing and fat retention. Most can resume normal activities within 1-2 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
During the procedure, excess fat is harvested from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks through liposuction. The extracted fat is then purified and strategically injected into the buttocks to achieve the desired shape and volume. The result is a more contoured and aesthetically pleasing silhouette.
Can also improve the overall body contour, creating a balanced appearance.
One session is usually sufficient, but results may vary based on individual goals and body type.
