Enhance Your Curves

A Brazilian butt lift does more than just add volume to the buttocks—it slims and shapes the donor site (often the abdomen, waist, or thighs) to further highlight your new silhouette. Dr. Lind, a double board-certified plastic surgeon, brings keen expertise to this procedure, ensuring safe fat transfer techniques and beautiful, balanced contours. Whether you’d like to restore lost volume or enhance your natural curves, a Brazilian butt lift can help you achieve long-lasting, natural-looking results.

Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift

A Brazilian butt lift can address volume loss due to aging or genetics, and it can also help those looking to achieve better body proportions. Benefits include:

  • Fuller, rounder buttocks without implants
  • Simultaneous body sculpting of the donor area (abdomen, flanks, etc.)
  • Long-lasting, natural results when the transferred fat is retained
  • Improved self-confidence and body image

By using your own fat, this technique offers a soft, natural feel and reduces the risk of certain complications associated with implants.

BBL Step-by-Step Breakdown

1. Harvest

Excess fat is gently removed from specific areas of your body—commonly the abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, or arms—using liposuction. Dr. Lind prioritizes a safe and precise approach to preserve the quality of the fat cells.

2. Purify

The harvested fat is carefully processed and purified to remove fluid, blood, and damaged fat cells. This ensures the highest quality fat is used for injection into the buttocks.

3. Transfer

Using small incisions placed strategically around the buttocks, Dr. Lind injects the purified fat to sculpt a shapely, proportionate contour. By layering the fat into the buttocks, a smooth, natural look is achieved.

4. Recovery

Following the procedure, you’ll be provided detailed aftercare instructions and a compression garment. Dr. Lind and his team will guide you on how to sit, sleep, and manage your daily routine to optimize fat survival and minimize discomfort.

What to Expect After Your BBL Procedure

Because a Brazilian butt lift involves both liposuction and fat transfer, some bruising, swelling, and fluid drainage are normal. You’ll wear a compression garment for about six weeks to support healing and help reduce swelling in the donor areas. Dr. Lind may also recommend a special pillow for sitting to prevent putting pressure directly on the newly transferred fat.

Pain Management

Dr. Lind will prescribe medication to help manage discomfort. Most patients report that the initial postoperative soreness subsides within a couple of weeks, and they can return to light, non-strenuous work within one to two weeks.

Follow-Up Appointments

Your first follow-up usually occurs about 10 days after surgery. Dr. Lind monitors your healing progress and addresses any concerns. Sutures are typically dissolvable, so there is no need for removal. Most patients return to more vigorous activities at around six weeks post-procedure.

By six months, you’ll see your more defined, long-term results as the transferred fat stabilizes.

How soon will I see final results after a Brazilian butt lift?

You will notice an immediate improvement in your buttocks after surgery. However, some swelling may persist for several weeks. By around six months, most of the swelling will have resolved, and you can appreciate your final shape once the transferred fat settles.

Can I have a Brazilian butt lift if I smoke?

It’s best to quit smoking at least six weeks before surgery and avoid smoking for at least six weeks after surgery. Smoking can interfere with circulation and the fat transfer process, increasing the risk of complications and affecting the final outcome.
