These days, many individuals are interested in enhancing their physical appearance by optimizing the shape and size of their butt. If this is the case for you, it’s important to know that a Brazilian Buttock Lift may be the perfect solution.
Brazilian Buttock Lift: The Basics
The Brazilian buttock lift (also referred to as buttock augmentation surgery) involves using fat grafting to increase the size of the patient’s buttocks. In some cases, both implants and fat grafting can be used to accomplish this objective. The Brazilian Buttock Lift can provide a plethora of benefits, some of which include:
- Increase the projection, roundness, and fullness of the buttock
- Improve figure balance
- Enhance self-confidence/self-image
The Best Candidates for the Brazilian Buttock Lift
The Brazilian Buttock Lift is ideal for you if:
- You understand the procedure and have realistic expectations
- You are physically and mentally healthy
- You would prefer that your buttock be larger
- You do not like the shape of your buttocks
- Your buttocks is not symmetrical
What Happens During Buttock Augmentation Surgery?
When you come in for your consultation, your surgeon will select between several incision techniques and patterns for surgery. The decision will be based on several factors, some of which include:
- The shape and size of your buttock
- The amount of body fat you have (this will determine how much is available to be used via liposuction)
- Your activity levels and goals
- Skin elasticity and quality
- The amount of extra skin you have
There are two basic steps in the procedure. They include:
Liposuction
Liposuction is accomplished through tiny incisions. The surgeon will use anesthesia to reduce trauma and bleeding. Next, a hollow tube (cannula) will be inserted through the incisions. This helps loosen excess fat. Once dislodged, the fat is suctioned out of the patient’s body through a syringe or surgical vacuum. Generally, the surgeon will remove up to three times the fat that she or he will inject into the buttocks.
Fat Injection
After liposuction, the fat, blood, and tissue that were excised are processed. Once this is done, the syringes will be connected to a cannula. The surgeon will then use the cannula to add fat to your buttocks with tiny injections all over this region of the body.
Brazilian Buttock Lift Results
Results from your Brazilian Buttock Lift will be immediately apparent. Over the course of time, the post-surgical swelling resulting from the procedure will resolve. The incision lines from the procedure will also fade. Thus, satisfaction with the results of the procedure should grow as time goes on.
The results of the procedure will surface over the course of several months as your buttock shape settles. It can take up to one year for you to see the full results of the treatment. This is the case for many reasons, including the fact that some of the fat that gave your buttock shape right after the buttock lift will be reabsorbed into the body.
