You can choose between two types of procedures. A Brazilian Butt Lift increases volume in the rear end. A traditional butt lift reduces unwanted fat and extra skin to create a more youthful, lifted silhouette.

Achieving your ideal figure

To find out if you can achieve a more proportionate figure with a butt lift procedure, call us to schedule a free initial consultation. This consultation will be with Dr. Hyman, our double-board-certified plastic surgeon. He will take all the time you need to ensure your questions and concerns are answered.

What is a butt lift?

During your procedure, you will not feel any pain, as you will be administered general anesthesia or intravenous sedation by our board-certified Anesthesiologist. Depending on your individual condition and desired outcome, Dr. Hyman will make an incision just below your waist or below your buttocks if needed. Unwanted skin and tissue are then removed, and the skin is positioned to create smoother, firmer buttocks that are nicely rounded and lifted.

Is a butt lift right for me?

Weight fluctuations, aging, and pregnancy can cause you to lose skin elasticity or accumulate fat in the buttocks area. A traditional butt lift can:

  • Slim your hips, thighs, and buttocks
  • Lift your buttocks for a more youthful look
  • Remove excess skin, fat, and tissue

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A Brazilian Butt Lift adds volume to the buttocks by transferring natural fat from another body area to the buttocks, creating a rounder, shapelier behind. No skin is removed, and there are no scars. The treatment involves harvesting fat cells from the abdomen or upper thighs to create a beautifully shaped figure.

Is a Brazilian Butt Lift right for me?

If your efforts to increase the size of your buttocks with exercise have not transformed your figure, a Brazilian Butt Lift may be the ideal treatment for achieving the body proportions you desire.

The fat transferred to your backside becomes integrated into your figure, enhancing volume and lift, for a fuller, rounder butt, while slimming love handles, excess tummy fat, or other zones with an abundance of fat cells. If you have any of these conditions, you may be a good candidate for the procedure:

  • You have a flatter butt, lacking volume
  • Your buttocks are smaller than you want
  • You want an hourglass figure
  • You dream of having a rounder, more lifted butt

To undergo a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), you must have:

  • Enough fat in other parts of your body to extract and transfer
  • Resilient, elastic skin
  • An understanding of the procedure and recovery, and the need to avoid sitting on your butt for several weeks
  • Weight stability for several months
  • Good general health
  • A commitment to not smoking before and after the procedure

Recovery after a Brazilian Butt Lift

You will be able to go home a few hours after your surgery. You will need someone else to drive you due to the anesthesia. Your buttocks will be protected with dressings, and you will need to wear a special garment to keep the area firmly in place and reduce swelling. Dr. Hyman will provide thorough aftercare instructions, and we are available to answer any questions or concerns, day or night.

You can expect some swelling and tenderness for the first week or two after surgery. These symptoms will diminish as your body heals, but you will see visible results right away. You will have some physical activity restrictions. Dr. Hyman will monitor your healing process and approve activities as your recovery progresses. The outcome will be apparent within about six months.

With a Brazilian Butt Lift, you will be required to sleep on your stomach, wear your compression garment, and avoid sitting directly on your newly enhanced buttocks for up to eight weeks. You will use a special pillow when sitting in a chair. The goal is for the transferred fat cells to remain in place and to become integrated into your natural tissue, which can take up to a month.
