Resculpt your body with a Brazilian butt lift

You may be unhappy about your figure due to a smaller or flatter buttock, or you may have seen your figure become less attractive due to weight loss or aging. A brazilian butt lift allows you to create a more sculpted, “hourglass” figure by harvesting excess fat from the waist, love handles, abdomen, or back and using the cells to create a more lifted, rounded butt.

How does a BBL work? Is it safe?

A Brazilian butt lift, or “BBL,” redefines your physique. For a successful BBL, you want to ensure you are under the care of a medical professional that uses the most advanced techniques and patient health and safety protocols. Brazilian butt lift procedures are performed in our state-of-the-art, private, certified onsite surgery center. Your BBL will be performed with a meticulous approach, injecting your own fat cells in safe and proper depths into your buttocks to create a more ideal, round, lifted look.

Brazilian butt lift: A step-by-step guide to a more beautiful body

If you are unhappy with a smaller or flatter buttock, you can alter your figure naturally and enhance your feelings of self-confidence with a Brazilian butt lift.

Preparing for your treatment

Dr. Chamata will provide you with pre-surgery guidelines to prepare for your procedure. You will need to arrange for a friend or family member to transport you home after your treatment, and you will be required to avoid certain medications and supplements before your BBL. Plan for two to three weeks off work to rest and heal. You will need to ensure your home is arranged for your comfort, you have purchased all of the required medications, and you have everything in place for a smooth recovery.

Harvesting fat cells for transfer

Fat cells will be harvested from areas of your body, such as love handles, tummy, waist, back, arms, or thighs. Gentle liposuction is performed to harvest fat, with the added benefit of slimming away fatty zones.

Purification

The fat cells extracted from your fatty areas are purified with a specialized process. The process separates and cleanses the healthy fat cells from other body products, as these cells are the most likely to survive the transfer and integrate into the natural tissues of your buttocks.

Fat transfer

The purified fat cells are then loaded into a special medical syringe and injected meticulously into your buttocks to add shape, volume, and projection through small and hidden incisions that are fewer than those of other techniques.

Time to rest and recover

Your brazilian butt lift in Houston will require several weeks of rest without putting any pressure on your buttocks. You will need to sleep on your tummy and cannot sit on your reshaped butt for several weeks, allowing the transferred cells to become integrated into your body. Initially, your butt will be swollen, and you can expect some bruising. You will need to wear a compression garment to protect the area and retain the new shape. Dr. Chamata will see you in a follow-up appointment to ensure your recovery is proceeding as it should. You should be able to return to work or other activities within about two to three weeks. The more careful you are about avoiding pressure on the buttocks, the more successful the procedure.

  • Your newly-enhanced buttocks will be protected with customized compression garments specifically designed for our practice from Colombia.
  • We deliver a customized regimen of lymphatic drainage massage post-op to decrease swelling and improve shape and contour.
  • It is expected that you will experience some swelling and soreness that can be controlled with oral medication.
  • Avoid sitting for 6 weeks
  • Sleep on stomach for 6 weeks
  • Compression garment for at least 6 weeks to help contour the body.
  • Return to work in two weeks.
  • After approximately four weeks, you will feel back to normal and are able to resume exercise.
  • You will have regular follow-up appointments

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape, volume, and projection of the buttocks using your own fat. Fat is removed from areas such as the abdomen, waist, back, thighs, or love handles through liposuction, purified, and strategically injected into the buttocks to create a fuller, more sculpted appearance.

Am I a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift?

You may be a good candidate for a Brazilian Butt Lift if you want to enhance the size and shape of your buttocks using your own fat, have enough excess fat for harvesting, are in good overall health, and have realistic expectations about your results.

What areas can be used to harvest fat for a BBL?

Fat can commonly be harvested from the abdomen, waist, love handles, back, thighs, or arms. Removing fat from these areas not only provides the fat needed for transfer but also enhances your overall body contour by creating a more defined waist-to-hip ratio.

Is a Brazilian Butt Lift safe?

When performed by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon using modern safety protocols, a Brazilian Butt Lift can be a safe procedure. Dr. Chamata performs BBL surgery in a certified, state-of-the-art surgical facility and uses advanced fat grafting techniques designed to prioritize patient safety while achieving natural-looking results.

How long is recovery after a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Most patients return to work within two to three weeks. During recovery, you will need to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks and sleep on your stomach for approximately six weeks. Compression garments and lymphatic drainage massages may also be recommended to help reduce swelling and optimize your results.

How long do Brazilian Butt Lift results last?

The fat cells that successfully establish a blood supply become a permanent part of your body. While some of the transferred fat is naturally absorbed during healing, maintaining a stable weight and following your post-operative instructions can help preserve your long-term results.

Will my Brazilian Butt Lift look natural?

Because a Brazilian Butt Lift uses your own fat rather than implants, the results typically look and feel natural. Dr. Chamata customizes every procedure to each patient's anatomy and goals, whether they desire a traditional, natural, skinny, athletic, or Colombian-style BBL.

What should I expect during my Brazilian Butt Lift consultation?

During your consultation, Dr. Chamata will evaluate your anatomy, discuss your aesthetic goals, determine whether you have sufficient fat for transfer, explain the procedure and recovery process, and develop a customized surgical plan designed to achieve balanced, natural-looking results.

How soon can I exercise after a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Most patients can gradually resume exercise about four weeks after surgery, although activities that place pressure on the buttocks may need to be postponed longer. Dr. Chamata will provide personalized guidance based on your healing progress.

Are financing options available for a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Yes. Flexible third-party financing options are available to help make your Brazilian Butt Lift more affordable. Qualified patients may choose from monthly payment plans and other financing options that allow them to move forward with treatment while fitting the procedure into their budget.
