What Happens During a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Brazilian Butt Lift: Aug 23, 2019The Brazilian Butt Lift is one of the most popular body cosmetic procedures on the market because of its minimally-invasive techniques and great results. Previously, buttock implants were the primary choice for buttock augmentation, but some patients prefer natural alternatives. If you’re considering a Brazilian Butt Lift, then it’s important to know each different step that it occurs during the surgery. Here’s what to expect during this procedure.
Liposuction
The Brazilian Butt Lift begins with liposuction on an area of the body with substantial fatty tissue. This requires a small incision through which a surgical cannula can be inserted. This helps break up the fatty tissue using a gentle sweeping motion, after which it can be removed with a vacuum. Some of the most common areas for liposuction are the abdomen and flanks.
Injection
Once the fatty tissue is collected and prepared, it’s injected into the buttocks using precisely-measured injections to create your ideal results. Usually, more fat than necessary is injected since not all of the tissue will survive the process. Once this is complete, you’ll be fitted with a special compression garment to aid blood flow.
Recovery
After surgery and a brief monitoring period, you can return home. You’ll be given specific instructions to follow in the days and weeks following your surgery. You can expect some swelling at your incision sites, and you’ll be prescribed medications to help manage discomfort. You should avoid sitting directly on your buttocks and will be given a specialized pillow to sit on during your recovery. Over time, your final results will emerge as swelling subsides and the fatty tissue settles into its new location.
