Natural Buttock Enhancement With Your Own Fat in Burlington
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
A Brazilian Butt Lift, often called a BBL, enhances the size and shape of your buttocks using your own fat. Fat is gently harvested from areas like the abdomen, hips, or thighs through liposuction, then purified and strategically injected into the buttocks to create a fuller, more rounded, and lifted appearance.

How It Works
A Brazilian Butt Lift combines liposuction to harvest fat from donor areas with fat grafting to augment the buttocks. The harvested fat is processed and carefully injected in multiple layers to create natural looking volume and shape, which contours the body while enhancing the buttocks. Surgery typically takes 3 to 4 hours under general anesthesia.
Common Treatment Goals

Surgery
3 to 4 hours under general anesthesia. Fat is harvested, processed, and injected into the buttocks.
First 2 Weeks
Avoid sitting directly on the buttocks. Use a special cushion when needed, and keep activity limited.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much fat survives after transfer?
Typically 60 to 80 percent of transferred fat survives long term. The fat that survives becomes a permanent part of your body.
Do I need to gain weight before a BBL?
No, you should be at or near your ideal weight. We need adequate fat to harvest, but gaining weight specifically for surgery is not recommended.
"All surgical procedures carry inherent risks, including but not limited to: infection, bleeding, adverse reaction to anesthesia, scarring, asymmetry, changes in sensation, and the possibility of revision surgery. Risks specific to this procedure will be discussed in detail during your consultation. Results vary from patient to patient.
