Buttocks Aesthetics (Brazilian Butt Lift BBL)

Create a request

Buttocks Aesthetics, commonly known as Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), is a popular cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks. It involves the transfer of fat from other areas of the body to the buttocks to create a fuller, more voluptuous appearance. This procedure is sought after for both aesthetic improvements and confidence boosting.

Buttocks Aesthetics (Brazilian Butt Lift BBL)

General

The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a two-part procedure that begins with liposuction to remove fat from areas where it's unwanted, such as the abdomen, hips, lower back, or thighs. Then, this fat is processed and purified before being strategically injected into the buttocks to enhance their shape and volume. An important aspect of BBL is achieving a natural-looking enhancement that harmonizes with the patient's overall body proportions. Since the procedure uses the patient's own fat, risks associated with foreign substances are minimized, making it a desirable option for body contouring. Careful planning and execution by a skilled surgeon are crucial for successful outcomes, as the procedure involves not just augmentation, but also reshaping and sculpting of the buttock area.
