Brazilian Butt Lift
Brazilian Butt Lift West Palm Beach & Palm Beach
Plastic surgery procedures are often performed to minimize curves in areas such as the thighs, hips, and buttocks. However, patients also turn to Dr. Jarial at Ultra Aesthetics in West Palm Beach & Fort Lauderdale to see how the Brazilian Butt Lift can enhance the curvature of their backside.
Outstanding proportions across the body can be difficult to achieve, especially if the bottom is too small or flat. Concerns about a lack of curves may occur after significant weight loss or it may have more to do with a slim physique than physical changes. The buttocks are challenging to build up with exercise alone. For this reason, surgical enhancement makes sense for many people.
What Is The Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure is performed to lift and enhance volume and shape to achieve better proportions. The surgery involves fat grafting from another part of the body such as the thighs, abdomen, hips, or lower back. Harvested fat cells are then strategically inserted into the buttocks tissue to give a more rounded, lifted appearance. Taking fat from areas surrounding the backside leads to even more dramatic, beautiful sculpting.
Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure
BBL is an outpatient surgery, meaning that the patient can return home to recover on the same day. Dr. Jarial uses general anesthesia to ensure the patient remains comfortable throughout the procedure.
To begin, Dr. Jarial performs liposuction to suction out excess fat cells from a predetermined area on the body where fat is in surplus. He carefully molds the remaining fat in the treated area to ensure the body maintains appealing contours.
Next, the fat harvested with this procedure is purified to remove damaged cells and excess liquid. This ensures that healthy, absorbable fat cells are used in the transfer process for a high rate of success.
Finally, Dr. Jarial methodically injects the donor fat into the buttocks at various depths to achieve an attractive, rounded shape. Most of the fat is put in the upper quadrant of the cheeks to ensure the butt has a lifted (non-droopy) appearance. Dr. Jarial can customize the placement to achieve the patient’s desired shape, such as a round bubble butt or upside-down heart shape cheeks.
BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT RECOVERY AND RESULTS
Dr. Jarial provides a compression garment that is worn on the buttocks to help hold its new shape while also minimizing swelling and accelerating the healing process. Most patients need about two weeks of rest and relaxation at home before they feel well enough to return to work. Recovery can be trickier than other cosmetic surgeries since it is imperative to avoid putting pressure on the buttocks. This means no lying down on the back and no sitting down (at least not without a BBL pillow, which puts the pressure on the thighs instead). Dr. Jarial and his staff check up on patients to ensure healing is progressing normally.
Not all fat cells survive the transfer process, so patients should wait for several months to assess their full results. Fortunately, because the body recognizes its own fat cells, the results achieved with this surgery can last indefinitely. Maintaining a steady weight moving forward is the best way to ensure that the newly achieved contours are permanent.
BBL Testimonials
“I wanted a curvier body as I’ve always been thin and very self-conscious about it. Dr. Jarial was realistic with me when discussing my potential results and his staff was very attentive after the surgery. I love the results! I get compliments on my figure daily!”
-S.F.B.
“Meeting Dr. Jarial was so pleasant and answered all my questions (and oh did I have a lot of questions). I originally wanted a big booty, but the day of the surgery I told him to do what’s best and just make it look natural, and that’s exactly what he did. My husband and I are very pleased with my outcome!”
-N.G.M.
BBL Costs
The total price of Brazilian butt lift depends on multiple factors, but primarily the amount of fat that is harvested and then transferred. Dr. Jarial can provide a complete quote after hearing the patient’s wishes and assessing their body during a consultation. Because BBL is an elective procedure, it is not covered by most health insurance plans.
Although BBL is by far the most popular butt augmentation method, Dr. Jarial can also perform a surgery that uses implants to enhance the buttocks. It is often the better option for very thin patients who do not have enough fat cells to transfer. During a consultation, Dr. Jarial can discuss both procedures with the patient and determine the choice that achieves the best outcome for the patient.
Brazilian Butt Lift FAQ
Am I a candidate for BBL?
Dr. Jarial will determine your candidacy for this surgery. However, a BBL might be right if you have:
- Good overall health
- A desire for a curvier backside
- Not been able to improve your backside with other methods
- A sufficient amount of fat elsewhere on the body for successful fat harvesting
- Realistic expectations
If you do not have enough body fat to transfer to the buttocks, you may still be able to enhance your backside with gluteal implants. Dr. Jarial will help you explore all of your surgical options to help you obtain your desired look.
What are some common misconceptions about BBL surgery?
As with many popular cosmetic surgeries, BBL comes with its fair share of misconceptions. However, Dr. Jarial is committed to transparency at all stages, ensuring that patients are well-informed about the details of the procedure and what it can accomplish. Common misconceptions about BBL include:
BBLs are unsafe: A BBL, like any surgery, carries certain risks. However, choosing a qualified and highly experienced surgeon, such as Dr. Jarial can help ensure that the procedure is carried out with patient safety being prioritized. Following Dr. Jarial’s aftercare instructions can also help you avoid complications during recovery.
You can lose weight from the liposuction portion of BBL: The role of liposuction in a BBL is to harvest fat for injection into the buttocks. This fat is sourced from areas around the body that have excess fat stores, like the abdomen, back, hips, and thighs. Liposuction is not a weight loss solution, but the combination of removing fat and transferring it to the backside can make the liposuction areas look thinner and give the body a sculpted contour.
BBL results will look fake: While a noticeable improvement is expected by BBL patients, many wonder if their results will appear fake to others. In addition to technical expertise, Dr. Jarial possesses an artistic eye, enabling him to deliver believable results. Whether you are interested in subtle enhancement or dramatic transformation, Dr. Jarial can transform your goals into reality.
Implants are better: Both implants and fat transfer are excellent ways to improve the shape and projection of the buttocks; however, each patient is different and has a unique body shape, surgical needs, and expectations. During your consultation, Dr. Jarial will help you determine the best option for you.
What should I expect during my BBL consultation?
The first step of your BBL journey is to consult with Dr. Jarial. There, Dr. Jarial will determine your fitness for surgery and give you information about all aspects of the procedure, such as the details of the surgery, recovery, and the results you can expect. You will be able to ask questions and discuss your reasons for pursuing BBL surgery. This procedure is highly customizable, so Dr. Jarial will gather details from you about your desired butt shape and the degree of projection you want, among other things. If it is determined that BBL surgery is right for your butt enhancement goals, you will begin preparing for surgery. This may include having lab testing done, adjusting your medications, and refraining from smoking in the weeks leading up to your procedure.
