What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

The Brazilian Butt Lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that augments and reshapes the buttocks and hips with the patient's own fat cells. Athēnix surgeons work with your unique anatomy and offer custom-tailored procedures that remove unwanted fat from various body areas and use natural body material to produce long-lasting, smooth, and natural-looking results.

BBL Candidates

A Brazilian butt lift can give you a more perky or heart-shaped bottom. Ideal candidates are healthy and have enough fat deposits in other body areas to create more prominent, round buttocks. 

Those with small, flat, sagging, or asymmetrical buttocks and those who have lost the firm, rounded shape after significant weight loss may also benefit.

Shaping Beautiful Physiques

Athēnix is dedicated to body sculpting and contouring without the lengthy recovery and downtime of conventional plastic surgery or liposuction techniques. We specialize in serving the needs of both men and women in the Pasadena region and strive to create a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere for all our patients.

How it Works

The Brazilian butt lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgery. At Athēnix, our surgeons can custom tailor a procedure that works with your unique anatomy, removing unwanted fat from thighs, back, or other body areas and using natural body material to create a bigger, rounder bottom that appears lifted. The procedure is a three-part process.

Harvesting

Our surgeons use VASER® Liposuction to gently and selectively dislodge fat cells from your body's soft tissue using ultrasound waves and slender cannulas. This process is safer, less invasive, and creates a smoother appearance than older methods. Fat cells are not damaged or destroyed in removal, making it an advanced liposuction process.

Purifying

The next step is to purify the fat taken from your body in a decanting and centrifugation process. The purification process allows our surgeon to use only the most viable fat cells from your own body for re-injection into the buttocks.

Injecting

In the final step, your surgeon will transfer the purified fat into different areas of your buttocks and hips at various depths, with multiple injections using the same tiny cannulas to augment, reshape, and sculpt a round, prominent, curvy rear.

Why Choose Athēnix?

At Athēnix, we focus our practice on body sculpting and contouring without the difficult recovery and extended downtime of traditional plastic surgery or more traditional forms of liposuction. We cater to the needs of men and women in the Pasadena area and prioritize providing a relaxed and comfortable environment for all our patients.

Your Recovery Process

The expected recovery period for a Brazilian butt lift is around two weeks, during which some soreness may be experienced, but the pain is not expected to be severe. Limiting sitting time for approximately two weeks after the surgery and sleeping on your stomach to facilitate healing is advisable. Walking should begin on the day of the surgery to minimize the risk of complications and improve circulation. Wearing a compression garment for six weeks after the procedure is mandatory.

Permanent Results

Most patients who undergo a Brazilian butt lift can anticipate permanently retaining a significant portion of the transplanted fat volume in their buttocks. While the body may reabsorb some of the transferred fat over time, the fat that remains after approximately six months can be considered permanent. The fat transplanted during this procedure behaves the same way as naturally occurring fat in the body. Any changes in size can be expected through weight gain or loss, similar to the rest of the body.

Brazilian Butt Lift FAQ

What is the difference between a Brazilian butt lift and butt implants?

How long can the results last?

Are there complications?

When will I be able to sit comfortably after my procedure?

Is there scarring after the procedure?

What is the difference between a Brazilian butt lift and butt implants?

The Brazilian butt lift reshapes the buttocks using the patient's own fat, while implants are used for patients without excess fat or who want a big change quickly. The butt lift may be preferred as it uses the patient's natural fat.

How long can the results last?

The results of a Brazilian Butt Lift can last as long as the patient maintains a healthy and active lifestyle at a stable weight. Following aftercare instructions can help retain up to 85% of the injected fat for a lifetime.

Are there complications?

Complications are very rare. Our physicians are highly experienced and use the most advanced and safest procedures. Any complications are usually minor and temporary.

When will I be able to sit comfortably after my procedure?

After the procedure, you will need two to four weeks before sitting normally and be taught to use a special pillow to protect the fat transplant. Plan the month following the procedure to reduce the need to sit for long periods of time for the best recovery results.

Is there scarring after the procedure?

Scarring depends on how much fat needs to be harvested, but generally, scars are less than one centimeter and become invisible after healing. Following the recovery regimen directed by medical professionals should lead to a smooth, natural look without noticeable scars.

Achieve Your Dream Body at Athēnix.

The Brazilian butt lift does more for the patient than reshaping and augmenting the buttocks. It can sculpt a flatter stomach, a tinier waist, sleeker thighs, and a shapelier back. If you want a curvier body with rounder, perkier buttocks, a Brazilian butt lift in Pasadena, CA might be your best option. Call our office to schedule a consultation with a skilled plastic surgeon in our state-of-the-art facility facility.
