Brazilian Butt Lift
You can consider having a butt lift if you have a small or flat butt. This body sculpting procedure is becoming very popular and can be done for both men and women. This is one of the many cosmetic body sculpting procedure that you can inquire from a board certified butt lift surgeon.
What is a butt lift?
A butt lift is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure aimed at augmenting the buttocks for a full look. The procedure combines liposuction and fat grafting from other areas of your body which is later injected on your butt. About 60 to 80 percent of fat injected on your buttocks survives. Surviving fat will determine the results of your procedure after recovery. Fat is harvested through liposuction from your lower back, hips, area below your butt, abdomen and thighs or from your love handles.
Who is a good candidate for one?
Good candidates for a butt lift, also known as a brazilian butt lift, should have the following conditions:
The procedure
Butt lift starts with admission of local anesthesia. Liposuction is then done on areas where you want fat to be removed like hips, thighs, waistline or abdomen. Areas where liposuction will be done will have a new sleek contour which makes your butt standout more even without butt lift. The suctioned fat is then purified and processed before it’s injected in your buttocks. Various small injections are made on different areas of your butt. Massage movements are also used to ensure that fat is evenly distributed on your buttocks. Women who prefer having a “bubble butt” will have more fat injected on the upper and lower area of their buttocks. After the process, you will have a compression garment and can go home with the direction of your doctor.
Recovery
Recovery from a butt lift takes several weeks. Injected sites will feel numb from anesthesia and after it wears off pain will be experienced. You will not be able to sit on your buttocks for some weeks. Swelling and soreness will persist for some days especially on sites where fat was removed or injected. Bruising or discoloration may also form on these areas. You will be given medications to reduce pain on treated sites. You may need more additional fat grafts which can be done in future sessions. Return visits are also important to ensure that you recover properly. Full recovery after butt lift is achieved after about 2 months. Swelling, pain and bruising will completely subside and you can resume normal activities and intense workouts.
