What is Fat Transfer to Buttocks?

Commonly known as a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL), fat transfer buttock augmentation is one of the fastest-growing cosmetic surgical procedures. During the procedure, your surgeon will remove fat from an area of your body where it is unwanted, such as the flanks, thighs, or abdomen. Fat will then be strategically placed into the buttocks to create a firmer, rounder, more youthful-looking backside. Essentially, the procedure is a combination of buttock augmentation and liposuction.

An Alternative to Buttock Implants

When it comes to improving the look of the buttocks, there are two options: implants and fat transfer. Fat transfer to the buttocks is an excellent alternative to buttock implants, especially if you like a more natural, comfortable result.

The procedure for a fat transfer to your buttocks follows several steps.
Liposuction of unwanted fat from other areas is performed using small cannulas. The fat is captured and then carefully injected into areas that need additional volume. Our plastic surgeons can remove unwanted fat from donor areas such as your abdomen, flanks, or thighs, giving you a significant improvement in the overall contours of your body.

The fat is placed into the buttock in a series of thin ribbons, with each fat graft being only a few millimeters in diameter. The size of grafted fat is small enough to allow the adjacent blood vessels to support the transferred fat until it has developed its permanent blood supply. Fat transfer can make the buttock area appear fuller and smoother, enhancing your overall shape and improving your self-confidence.

Buttock Implants vs. Fat Transfer to the Buttocks

Unlike buttock implants, Brazilian Buttock Lifts use your body’s natural fat, which is grafted to your gluteal tissue to create a more contoured look. On the other hand, silicone implants may increase the risk of infection and the need for removal. Fat transfer also results in faster recovery times and fewer limitations, such as sitting precautions. Fat transfer is also a permanent solution as the new, additional volume is still your own tissue. Buttock implants may need to be replaced after a few years.

Other vital differences can influence your decision. To learn about the pros and cons of both options, schedule a consultation with the skilled experts at Broadway Plastic Surgery. Our compassionate team will make sure you feel comfortable and help you make an informed decision that’s right for your unique situation.

Cons of Butt Implants

Many doctors offer buttock enlargement with implants, but buttock implants have many disadvantages. For one, they can be uncomfortable. You may feel them, especially while sitting. What’s more, because the muscles in your buttocks are working whenever you walk, they can put pressure on the implant and potentially push it out of place over time.

Since many people feel they have more than enough fat (just not in the right areas), the words “fat transfer” can be encouraging. A fat transfer to your buttocks from another location, such as your thighs or love handles, can help change the shape of your body into something closer to your ideal and leave you looking fit and youthful.

Benefits of BBL

Unlike other types of buttock surgery, such as silicone buttock implants, fat transfer provides a more natural-looking result while also promoting a rounder backside. The procedure can also help correct troublesome issues, such as the shapelessness and sagging that sometimes occur with age.

People also consider the fat transfer procedures when they’re bothered by figure imbalances that make it hard to wear clothing comfortably or look great in swimwear.

Another advantage associated with BBL is a lower risk of infection when compared to silicone buttock implantation. They also have a more natural look and feel. Since your bottom will feel firmer and fuller, cellulite may be less visible. With a BBL procedure, the thighs and butt tend to look more toned, promoting a shapelier look.

Fat Transfer Procedure

Am I A Good Candidate?

Good candidates for buttock fat transfer procedures want to enhance the prominence and appearance of their buttocks without relying on artificial implants. Patients should have at least a minimal amount of excess body fat in other parts of their body to serve as donor areas.

You will need to be in good general health and tolerate anesthesia. You will also need to have the ability to abstain from drinking and smoking during the period surrounding your procedure. If you have excess sagging skin in the buttock region, you may need extra surgery to prepare the area for your BBL procedure.

Cost

Brazilian butt lifts are one of the more affordable cosmetic surgical procedures. However, your costs can vary based on your unique needs and circumstances. Our team can give you an accurate estimate of total expenses during your consultation. Don’t hesitate to contact Broadway Plastic Surgery to learn more.

Procedure

A buttock fat transfer or Brazilian butt lift involves three fundamental steps:

  • Fat is removed from the abdomen, thighs, flanks, lower back, hips, or other body parts with liposuction.
  • The extracted fat is then prepared for transfer.
  • The fat is then injected into specific areas of the buttocks to improve the shape and increase volume. The amount of fat transferred will depend on the patient’s particular goals.

Fat transfer to the buttocks is an outpatient procedure using intravenous sedation or general anesthesia.

Recovery Time and Results

After you have had a fat transfer to your buttocks, we will need to minimize pressure on the area to encourage the success of the fat transfer. During the first three weeks, you should avoid strenuous activity, smoking, or lying on your back without pillows underneath the small of your back and just below your buttocks. While sitting, you will need to lean forward, so the weight is actually on your thighs and not your buttocks. Some swelling and bruising can occur following the surgery, but they should dissipate quickly. The final result from your procedure will be seen in approximately three months.
