What is BBL Surgery?
BBL surgery is a cosmetic, fat-grafting procedure that involves harvesting excess fat from various body areas and transferring it to the buttocks to create a fuller posterior.
It’s an excellent solution for saggy skin in the buttocks area after excess weight loss or for anyone who wants to add more volume to that area.
This cosmetic surgery can help to shape your buttocks and add symmetry, projection, and volume, tightening saggy skin and even reducing the appearance of cellulites. You can have the toned, smooth look you’ve always dreamed of and flaunt your firm skin at the beach with your confidence going through the roof.
It’s essential to note that BBL provides more natural-looking results than butt implants since it involves your body fat instead of silicones. However, those implants are the only option if you don’t have a sufficient amount of fat that the surgeon can harvest for a successful BBL procedure.
How Does It Work?
Brazilian butt lift surgery is an outpatient procedure that requires only general anesthesia. It typically takes 2 to 4 hours.
An anesthesiologist administers a saline solution with a local anesthetic to dilute the fat and contract blood vessels, ensuring minimal bleeding and complications.
The surgeon makes small incisions of 2-3 millimeters in the donor areas (abdomen, thighs, hips, lower back, and sometimes arms) to insert a cannula and remove fat. You don’t have to worry about scars because there won’t be any.
Once the cannula is in place, the surgeon performs VASER liposuction, a surgical technique that utilizes ultrasound technology to break up fat cells for seamless transfer.
The necessary amount of fat depends on your desired results, but the surgeon will harvest and transfer more because not all fat cells will survive. Your body will absorb 20-40% of transferred fat cells.
Before making slits on the buttocks to inject the harvested fat, the surgeon will purify it to remove anesthetic residues and blood and ensure the fat cells’ survival.
The fat transfer includes injecting the fat with one hand and sculpting the buttocks with the other hand to achieve the desired results.
When You Can Expect To See the Final Results?
It takes 4-6 months to see the final, long-lasting results of a Brazilian Butt Lift. However, the variation may change due to significant body weight fluctuations, so usually,we can‘t give a certain time for the healing process.
You must follow strict rules after your BBL surgery to ensure the desired results:
- Wear a compression garment for six weeks.
- Avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and smoking for the first 2-3 weeks.
- Avoid physical activities for two weeks.
- Use a BBL pillow for sitting if you must return to work one week following the surgery.
- Avoid sitting and laying on your back for at least 2-4 weeks.
- Sleep on your stomach for 2-3 months.
What is Post-Bariatric Surgery?
Post-bariatric surgery is an esthetic body contouring surgery for removing excess skin and fat after bariatric surgery, which is a weight-loss procedure. It helps to contour the body to improve its shape, tone, and overall appearance.
A BBL is an excellent choice if you’ve had post-bariatric surgery as it can make your posterior more voluminous, tightening and smoothing the skin.
Dr. Yunus Doğan often combines post-bariatric surgery with buttock esthetics, abdominoplasty, facial, back, and breast lift to contour the entire body after a massive weight loss.
