Buttock augmentation is one of the fastest-growing cosmetic surgical procedures. Buttock shape and size are regarded as crucial components of an attractive female physique. A Brazilian butt lift in NYC is a procedure that enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using the patient’s own fat. Fat different areas of your body is extracted and injected or transferred to your derriere to provide the desired enhancement.

How the Brazilian Butt Lift is different from Conventional Buttock Augmentation

The Brazilian butt lift (BBL), the plastic surgeon removes excess fat from areas of the body such as the abdomen, hips, flanks or thighs. This fat purified and injected carefully into the buttocks. BBL involves the following steps:

  • First, liposuction is performed to remove fat from the donor sites.
  • The extracted fat is refined and injected into the buttocks.
  • Injections are administered safely above the gluteal muscles

By removing unwanted fat and adding volume to the hips and buttock area, BBL enhances the natural curves of the body and provides attractive outcomes.

On the other hand, in standard butt augmentation surgery, silicone implants to improve butt size and shape. Butt implant surgery is an invasive procedure that typically takes several hours to complete. It also comes with risks of complications such as incisions opening after surgery and implants moving out of place.

Benefits of BBL

  • Natural looking results: BBL results look and feel more natural than butt implants. As it uses your own fat, BBL may also have a lower risk of complications.
  • Resolves sagging and improves shape: Aging reduces muscle mass. This muscular atrophy can affect any part of your body, including your posterior. The skin and adipose tissue surrounding that area may sag due to a decrease in muscle mass. Asymmetry in form or a dimpling of the skin are other possible effects. BBL enhances butt volume, provides a smoother appearance, and a more symmetrical contour.
  • Dual benefit: BBL is often called a dual benefit procedure. This fat transfer procedure not only enhances the appearance of the buttocks, but also improves the appearance and shape of the donor site. So, the procedure enhances overall body contour.
  • Fast recovery: Recovery after BBL is less demanding than butt implant surgery. You will receive detailed instructions from your surgeon on how to take care of yourself throughout this period. You will need to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for some time. Wearing a compression garment is also recommended to minimize swelling, provide support to the treated areas, and promote proper contouring as the body heals.
