Brazilian Butt Lift

What is Brazilian Butt Lift surgery?

A Brazilian Butt Lift, often abbreviated to BBL, is a Body Aesthetic Surgery that is a variety of Butt Lift that aims to augment the butt using using fat grafting. Brazilian Butt Lift isn’t a traditional “lift” procedure like a Face Lift or Breast Lift despite its name. Fat Grafting involves taking the excess fat from other parts of the body, purifying it, and then injecting it into another part of the body, in this case the butt, therefore increasing the volume and fullness of the injected area. Therefore, Brazilian Butt Lift adds volume to and improves the shape of the butt.

Why is Brazilian Butt Lift performed?

Brazilian Butt Lift is mainly performed to increase the volume of the butt and to give a symmetrical, even, shape to the butt.

What are the conditions for Brazilian Butt Lift surgery?

Brazilian Butt Lift is one of the most accessible Plastic surgeries; it simply has a few conditions that needs to be fulfilled:

  • The patient should be eligible to undergo general anesthesia.
  • Patient’s BMI should be around 30 and there should be enough fat tissue to remove from the body.
  • Patients should be older than 18 as their body should be developed.

What Are The Things To Be Considered Before Brazilian Butt Lift?

Patients should:

  • Be at the hospital a day before their surgery for the pre operative tests to be performed.
  • Stop smoking and consuming alcohol at least 2 weeks before the surgery to alleviate the risk of a blood clot.
  • Avoid medication containing aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) for two weeks before and after surgery. These medications may increase the risk of internal bleeding. Patients should confirm each medication or supplement they wish to take with their Patient Coordinator.
  • Stop taking Multivitamin supplements 7 days prior to the surgery, and if it contains vitamin K should not be used for 30 days following the surgery.
  • Stop taking oral contraceptives 30 days before the surgery.

How is the Brazilian Butt Lift performed?

General Anesthesia is administered and then the surgeon makes small incisions in the area where the fat will be taken from. The fat cells are extracted from the donor area using a cannula and a syringe.

If needed, the extracted fat will be processed using a centrifuge or another filtration technique to isolate the fat cells. The fat cells are then transferred to smaller cannulas and prepared to be injected into the buttocks.

The Plastic Surgeon will inject the transferred fat multiple times until the desired results are achieved. Sometimes the newly grafted fat may be massaged into the designated area to create full, natural contours. Finally, a bandage is placed over the grafted area.

It may be necessary to undergo multiple fat grafting sessions to achieve the desired results since the body will absorb some of the injected fat. On average, patients retain between 60% - 80% of the transferred fat.

What are The Things To Be Considered After Brazilian Butt Lift?

The results of the surgery can be observed immediately after surgery and after the surgery, patients should take care to:

  • Sleep face down for at least a month.
  • Use the special garment that was provided after surgery and a pillow while sitting.
  • Patients should avoid strenuous physical activities and intense exercises such as aerobics and jogging up to 6 weeks following surgery.

Patients might experience swelling and bruising and it might take several weeks to months for swelling and bruising to disappear.

From start to finish with BOOKING SURGERY the experience has been one I will never forget. From the coordinator David Turker to the transfer driver and staff at the hospital I cannot find fault with them at all. My surgeon Kagan Katar was so professional it is unbelievable these guys go so far out their way to make you feel comfortable and at home with in these amazing facilities Yasam Hospital in Istanbul. I spoke myself out it last year but made myself come this year and I am totally amazed by the overwhelming hospitality I have received and the care team are the most important team going. They look after you before and once you come out your surgery which I may add is only about 2 hours. So anyone thinking seriously about this I would recommend these guys 150% can ask for any more from them made me feel so so welcome.

Debbie Fitzpatrick reviewed Booking Surgery experience

Good company to deal with I was given my own coordinator Rossie who dealt with all my questions quickly and efficiently, thank you, Rossie. From initial booking of surgery to return home everything ran smoothly. The hospital was nice and staff were friendly a big shout out to Mary one of the kindest compassionate nurses i have ever met you are a credit to your profession. There are interpretors on call 24/7 who are always willing to help. My one criticism us the hospital food which is aweful but sure this is out of tge companies control. However the interpretors Naz, Morgan, Lily, Nadia always willing to help and happy to go to the mall next door to pick up food for you if desired thank you guys, plus the little kitchen provided tea, coffee, protein shakes etc so you could rustle up tea and toast if needed. My surgeon was Dr Soner and he is the most wonderful humble person he certainly is incredably talented. I would use this company again and would recommend to friends and family.
