Brazilian Butt Lift

BBL is a cosmetic procedure performed to enlarge the size of the buttock and reshape the relevant area. BBL, which is under the category of body aesthetics, is one of the fat transfer procedures. With the help of liposuction technology, fat is taken from different parts of the body, and the fats that have undergone the special procedures are injected into the buttocks.

Who Can Have BBL Surgery?

In addition to the question of "who is a suitable candidate for BBL", it is important at this point to explain the reasons for having a BBL. People who are not satisfied with the look of the buttock and the proportion of the hip area are considering this surgery. With BBL, operations such as adding volume, reshaping, enlarging, and increasing the contour can be performed. One of the important parts of the procedure is liposuction. Of course, suitability for surgery is determined as a result of tests and examinations.

Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery

BBL surgery includes anesthesia (or sedation), liposuction, or hip augmentation steps. The catheter is placed into the bladder. At first, the patient's suitability for anesthesia is confirmed. The operation is mostly performed under general anesthesia or with sedation. An incision is made in the waist area, and excess fat and skin are removed. Excess fat tissues in different parts of the body (abdomen, thighs, etc.) are collected by the liposuction method. The fat removal method is carried out with a special medical instrument called a "cannula". The process is completed when the removed fat is injected into the buttocks.

BBL Recovery Period

After the surgery, the incision line is dressed. A special kind of drain is placed under the wounded area to draw the dripping blood. Side effects such as pain, swelling, and bruising may be observed around the operation area. In addition, walking, running, and generally moving can be a bit difficult for the patient in the first few days. To relieve the pain, the surgeon will prescribe painkillers. These side effects are temporary. For having a comfortable recovery period, it is important to avoid movements that will cause physical exhaustion, to follow the doctor's recommendations, not to sit on your hips, and to sleep face down. Sitting in a normal position will be possible 7 to 8 weeks after the operation. The full recovery period, on the other hand, can take an average of 6-7 months.

It is essential to choose a successful surgeon for the BBL operation to get the best results. After the healing process is completed, a voluminous effect will be achieved as the excess fat and skin on the buttocks are removed.
