Unveil the Benefits of Expert Butt Augmentation
The allure of butt augmentation goes beyond just a desirable backside; it’s an artful blend of shaping, symmetry, and rejuvenation. Gluteal augmentation revitalizes sagging skin, dispels unwanted fat, and introduces a toned allure, potentially harmonizing with procedures like a tummy tuck for a comprehensive body transformation. With minimal downtime, it’s a smart choice for those aiming for an improved aesthetic without the long recovery ordeal.
Options in Butt Enhancement Surgery
Butt augmentation is a cosmetic surgery conducted to improve the contour and proportions of the buttocks. It can involve either surgical procedures, such as buttock implants, Brazilian butt lift (fat transfer), silicone implants, or non-surgical options like Sculptra or fat grafting. During the procedure, excess skin may be removed from the buttocks area if necessary.
Our doctors with a large expertise will work with each patient to determine which option best suits their individual goals and provide realistic expectations about what can be achieved with their particular procedure. The safety and success of the surgery depend heavily on the skill and experience of the plastic surgeon as well as the safety of the surgical facility utilized for the procedure. The result should be a more aesthetically pleasing appearance of the buttocks through an increase in volume and contour while preserving strength and movement in the gluteal muscles.

Brazilian Butt Lift – The Procedure
Improving the shape of the hips and buttocks begins with the extraction of fat cells from another area of the body, typically the thighs, flanks, or abdomen. The donor site will also benefit as fat extraction leads to a slimmer appearance. After the fat is harvested, it is purified and injected into the buttocks with a syringe. Notice how this is more of a fat transfer procedure and not a weight loss solution.
The team of board-certified experts at Laser & Cosmetic Surgery Specialists use a specially developed technique to inject the buttocks with the most natural-looking results. In total, the outpatient procedure can take between 1 ½ to 4 hours, depending on the amount of fat being removed through liposuction and the patient’s goal for the size and shape of their buttocks.

Comprehensive Guide to the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) Procedure
The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is not just about enhancing the size and shape of your buttocks; it’s a transformative journey that reshapes your silhouette and boosts confidence. Understanding the procedure in detail helps in making an informed decision.
1. Initial Consultation
Your BBL journey begins with a consultation. During this session, we discuss your aesthetic goals, evaluate your health, and determine the feasibility of the procedure for your body type. This is the time to ask questions and express any concerns.
2. Pre-Operative Preparations
Before the surgery, you’ll receive detailed instructions to prepare. This may include guidelines on diet, medication adjustments, and cessation of smoking. Pre-operative tests are conducted to ensure you’re fit for surgery.
3. The BBL Surgery Process
The BBL procedure involves two main steps: fat extraction and fat grafting.
- Fat Extraction: Using liposuction, fat is harvested from designated areas of your body, typically the abdomen, thighs, or back. This step not only provides the fat needed for augmentation but also contours the donor areas.
- Fat Grafting: The harvested fat is then purified and prepared for injection. It’s strategically injected into the buttocks to create a fuller, more rounded look. The technique used here is crucial for a natural and symmetrical appearance.
4. Post-Operative Care
After surgery, you’ll receive comprehensive aftercare instructions. This includes how to sit or lie down to avoid pressure on the buttocks, wound care, and the use of compression garments. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor your healing and progress.
5. Recovery Timeline
Recovery varies by individual, but generally, patients can return to light activities within a week and resume normal routines in about a month. It’s important to follow all post-operative instructions for optimal healing and results.
6. Long-Term Care and Results
Maintaining a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle is key to preserving your BBL results. Regular exercise and a balanced diet can help maintain the shape and feel of your enhanced buttocks.

Buttocks Implants
Procedures like buttocks implants involve inserting silicone implants into the gluteal region to enhance size and shape. Implants are carefully placed through surgical incisions for an appealing outcome, either over or under muscle tissue, based on individual needs. This low-risk procedure yields significant improvements in fuller buttock size and contour.
Fat Transfer
Fat transfer moves fat from areas like the abdomen or thighs to the buttocks, often alongside a Brazilian butt lift. It enhances volume, balances body proportions, and targets stubborn fat deposits that liposuction alone can’t address due to loose skin or medical conditions.
Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery
Brazilian butt lift surgery uses liposuction and fat grafting to augment buttock volume and shape naturally, without implants. Fat tissues from donor sites are removed and injected into the buttocks, reshaping the region for a more appealing look.
Butt Lift Surgery
Butt lift surgery removes excess skin around the buttocks to tighten and create a firmer appearance. This procedure can also be combined with Thigh Lift for a complete transformation. This procedure may also adjust the buttock crease for better aesthetic results. It improves body proportions and muscle tone, especially when combined with other contouring procedures like liposuction or a tummy tuck.
BBL Surgery: What to Expect
After BBL Surgery, expect discomfort, bruising, and swelling. Avoid sitting on your buttocks for about three weeks, favoring your thighs when seated, and sleeping on your side or abdomen. A compression garment for over two weeks helps manage swelling during light activities. Most patients can return to work in two weeks, gradually resuming normal activities in four weeks, including comfortable sitting. Some swelling may persist, with final results visible later. Sustain results through exercise and a healthy diet.
While generally safe, BBL surgery, mainly liposuction, has risks like bleeding, blood clots, numbness, fluid buildup, or fat necrosis. Rarely infection occurs. Adherence to pre and post-operative instructions reduces these risks.As with any surgery, there are some possible complications, but BBL is considered a safe procedure. Most of the risks are attributed to the liposuction part of the surgery. These potential complications include bleeding, blood clots, numbness, fluid buildup under the skin, and fat necrosis. A rare risk is an infection. All complications can be minimized by carefully following pre and post-operative instructions.
Butt Augmentation Aftercare
After butt augmentation surgery, it is important to follow your plastic surgeon’s post-operative instructions to ensure a safe and successful recovery period. These may include proper wound care, periodic icing, wearing a compression garment for several weeks, using antibiotics as prescribed, avoiding strenuous activities, or sitting directly on the buttocks for at least 3 weeks. Additionally, you should maintain a healthy lifestyle plan that includes regular exercise and a proper diet to achieve long-term results from the procedure.
Possible Risks and Complications of Brazilian Butt Lift
Dr. Beran takes patient safety very seriously and does everything possible to minimize the risks associated with buttock lift procedures. While the procedure is generally safe, there are certain potential risks and complications, such as infection, bleeding, nerve damage, fat necrosis, asymmetry, dissatisfaction with results, and more. To reduce these risks, Dr. Beran only uses high-quality materials and techniques as well as providing clear pre-operative instructions to all patients before the procedure takes place.
