Schedule A ConsultationWhat Is Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a type of buttock augmentation surgery that uses your own body fat to improve the shape and size of your buttocks. It is fast becoming one of the most desired cosmetic surgeries in the world. Dr. Angelina uses a combination of liposuction and fat transfer to remove unwanted fat from different areas of your body and uses it to enhance the shape and size of your buttocks. This surgery provides multiple benefits, as it slims down areas where you have unwanted fat deposits and gives you a more proportioned body and the buttocks you have always wanted. A BBL uses your own fat to improve your proportions, so there is little chance that it will not be accepted by your body, but BBL surgery is not without risks or potential complications.

Preparing for Your BBL
Your preoperative assessment will determine any tests you need. Share all medicines and supplements you are currently taking with your surgical team. Follow coordinated instructions from your surgical, anesthesia, and prescribing teams about medication changes and fasting. Arrange an adult escort home and arrange the assistance your team recommends.
Procedure Steps
You will be put under general anesthesia, so you will be comfortable throughout the entire surgery. The surgery typically takes between two and three hours.
Dr. Angelina will perform liposuction on targeted areas of your body, such as your abdomen, thighs, etc., to gather enough fat to use during the transfer process.
The extracted fat is gently purified in a way to prevent the cells from being damaged while preparing them for transfer.
Dr. Angelina places purified fat into strategic locations in the soft fatty layer beneath the skin, above the covering of your buttock muscles to achieve the shape and volume you desire. Real-time ultrasound is used to track the tip of the injection tube while fat is injected. Some transferred fat will not survive, so it is customary for the surgeon to overfill certain areas to compensate.
Recovery
You will spend a few hours in the recovery room under observation by members of our medical team while you are coming out of the anesthesia, but you will be able to go home the same day. You will wake up with compression garments covering the treatment areas that you will need to wear for about 4 to 6 weeks.
You will need to take around 2 weeks off from work to allow your body time to heal from both the liposuction and the fat transfer procedure. You can expect swelling and bruising that may be accompanied by soreness and pain for the first few days.
You will need to take care not to put too much pressure on your newly grafted fat, which will require you to adjust your sitting and sleeping positions for several weeks. There are many different options available to help you stay comfortable, including special donut pillows, blow-up mattresses, and chairs that have a hole in the middle that allow you to sit or lie down without putting weight directly on your buttocks.
Most patients are able to resume their normal activities after about 6 weeks, but you may not be able to see the complete final results for several months until the swelling completely subsides.
Your first review is the day after your surgery, with later reviews at 1 week, 3 weeks, etc. Contact your care team during office hours or follow the after-hours instructions you are provided for worsening pain, fever, or concerning wound changes. Call 911 immediately for chest pain, breathing difficulty, or collapse. Do not wait for an office callback.

The entire staff are very kind! Dr. Angelina shows you listens to your needs and treats you like a human and not a number. While she is doing the procedure (I was having Botox for the first time) she used humor as well as explained what she was doing and the reasoning behind it. She is also very encouraging and THAT means more to me than anything.

How Long Do The Results Of A BBL Last?

The natural aging process can also change the shape and firmness of your buttocks. Read more about BBL results after ten years.
What Are the Risks of a BBL?
Bruising, swelling, and soreness are common during recovery. Complications can include infection, numbness, scarring, and uneven results. Fat embolism is a serious risk, which is where fat enters the bloodstream and blocks the blood flow to the lungs and can be fatal. Serious complications can occur and your surgeon will cover your individual risks and the precautions used during surgery during your consultation.
