A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape and size of the buttocks. This popular surgery at Dallas Cosmetic Center involves taking small fat deposits from other areas of your body, then transferring them to the buttocks to provide a more curvaceous silhouette. A BBL can also help improve the definition and projection of the buttock area. Board-certified gynecologist and cosmetic surgeon Dr. Otto Huertas is proud to offer patients stunning results when factors like age, weight loss, and gravity take their toll. Call now to learn more about our Brazilian butt lift in Dallas, TX and how the fat transfer process works. Our team strives for the highest level of patient satisfaction and looks forward to helping you achieve your aesthetic goals.
There are many reasons why men and women choose to undergo a BBL at Dallas Cosmetic Center. Results from fat grafting are natural and last much longer than other buttock-enhancing products, such as implants. Since the fat is harvested from your own body, there is virtually no risk of rejection or allergic reaction. The procedure also provides an overall natural-looking appearance that can be hard to achieve through other methods. Here are some additional benefits of a Brazilian butt lift:
Dr. Huertas will perform an evaluation to determine your candidacy for a BBL in Dallas, TX. During a consultation, we discuss factors such as your general health, lifestyle habits, and personal goals. Ideal candidates should have enough fat in other areas of the body to harvest for transfer to their buttocks. We also welcome those who are looking to achieve a more balanced figure or improved silhouette. Patients must also commit to maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine following treatment in order to prolong the results of their BBL.
On average, a Brazilian butt lift takes about 2 – 3 hours to complete, depending on the amount of fat being extracted and transferred. Liposuction is the first step to remove fat deposits from specific areas with extra fat, such as your thighs, flanks, or lower back. Our trained team will safely extract the fat and place it in a sterile centrifuge. Once the purified fat is ready, Dr. Huertas will inject the harvested fat into your buttocks in layers followed by a delicate massage. We repeat this multiple times until your buttocks as attained the desired shape.
After a Brazilian butt lift at Dallas Cosmetic Center, patients are released home for rest and recovery. Remember that there are multiple areas on the body that need to be monitored: the donor sites and the buttocks. In both places, you can expect some discomfort and swelling. It’s important not to put a lot of weight on the buttocks for at least two weeks following BBL surgery in Dallas, TX. Some results should be noticeable at first, but in the majority of cases, the full outcomes can be seen after about 4 – 6 weeks. The good news is our patients report a fuller, shapelier backside! Even better, the areas that had liposuction benefit from improved contours.
How long will my Brazilian butt lift results last?
While a small amount of fat might be reabsorbed by your body after your Brazilian butt lift in Dallas, TX, most fat cells will stay in place for many years. You should be willing to maintain a steady, consistent weight after treatment because significant weight loss or gain can alter your results.
How can I recover faster after a Brazilian butt lift?
To help speed your recovery time following a Brazilian butt lift, Dr. Huertas can provide a comprehensive set of post-operative instructions. You should avoid sitting on your buttocks for at least two weeks. We can recommend a donut-shaped or nursing pillow that allows you to sit with pressure placed on your thighs instead of your buttocks. Light stretching and short walks can help improve blood circulation and reduce swelling.
Will a Brazilian butt lift remove loose skin?
Though this treatment is called a Brazilian butt lift, the name is a little deceiving because it does not surgically remove sagging skin from your bottom. However, the extra volume transferred to your backside during a BBL may fill some of your loose skin. If you’re concerned about moderate to severe excess skin, then our staff at Dallas Cosmetic Center can review your goals and treatment options.
Can I combine a Brazilian Butt Lift with other cosmetic procedures?
Yes, it’s common for patients to combine a Brazilian Butt Lift with other procedures, such as liposuction, tummy tuck, or breast augmentation. This can be discussed during a consultation to create a comprehensive treatment plan.
Can I achieve the desired results with exercise instead of a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Exercise can enhance muscle tone, but it may not significantly increase buttock volume. A BBL is designed to provide a fuller and more contoured appearance, especially for those who desire augmentation or reshaping.
How much does a Brazilian butt lift cost?
Your total cost for a BBL includes liposuction and fat transfer surgery, facility fees, anesthesia, plus pre- and post-operative care. Once Dr. Huertas has created your BBL surgical plan, he will be better able to give you cost estimates.
