Buttocks
Improve the contour, size, and shape of your butt with a Brazilian Butt Lift. This popular procedure removes fat cells from different areas of your body (including the abdomen, back, hips, waist, thighs, and arms) and transfers it to sculpt and improve the tone of the underlying tissue of the butt.
The Procedure
The Brazilian Butt lift uses a gentle liposuction technique to transfer fat from selected areas of the body into the buttocks in multiple layers through micro cannulas. The fat transfer begins in the deepest layers of the muscle and continues towards the surface in an interlacing fashion A butt augmentation with micro fat grafting is the preferred method of enhancement over buttock implants due to lower complication rates and an easier recovery process.
Ideal Candidate
You should be an adult in good general health, preferably a non-smoker. For this procedure, you will need areas of your body to have significant excess fat cells to transfer. Patients undergoing this procedure should have realistic expectations for the results after surgery and be ready to maintain a healthy lifestyle and follow the medical team’s instructions for recovery and beyond.
