BBL / Butt Lift Surgery Information
..
The Condition(s) BBL / Butt Lift Surgery Treats
BBL / butt lift surgery improves the shape, size, and projection of the buttocks. Many patients seek this procedure due to naturally flat or small buttocks, age-related sagging, or changes after weight loss. A butt lift enhances body proportions and creates a more contoured, youthful silhouette.
Who Is a Good Candidate for BBL / Butt Lift Surgery
Candidates include men and women who wish to enhance the size or shape of their buttocks, are in good overall health, and maintain a stable weight. Dr. Ali carefully evaluates each patient’s body proportions, skin elasticity, and goals to recommend the most effective treatment approach for enhancing one’s buttocks.
The Procedure or Technique(s) Used by Dr. Ali for BBL / Butt Lift Surgery
Dr. Ali uses advanced surgical methods for buttock enhancement.
– Traditional butt lift (excisional lift): Excess skin is removed, and tissues are repositioned to correct sagging and achieve a firmer shape.
– CoolSculpting combined with a butt lift: CoolSculpting (non-invasive fat reduction) may be used in surrounding areas to further enhance the contour achieved with surgery.
– Autologous fat transfer (Brazilian Butt Lift): Fat is harvested through liposuction from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, then purified and injected into the buttocks to add volume and improve contour.
Dr. Ali’s experience and artistry ensure natural-looking, proportional results tailored to each patient’s body type and appearance goals.
Does BBL / Butt Lift Surgery Hurt – Anesthetic Used for BBL / Butt Lift Surgery
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure comfort. After surgery, pain is managed with prescribed medication, and many patients transition to over-the-counter pain relievers within a few days.
How Long BBL / Butt Lift Surgery Takes
The surgery typically takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on whether fat transfer, excision, or a combination is performed.
How Long Recovery from BBL / Butt Lift Surgery Takes
Recovery involves restrictions on sitting directly on the buttocks for about 2 weeks to protect fat graft survival. Driving must wait until sitting is comfortable and pain medication is no longer required. Gentle walking is encouraged immediately, while strenuous exercise and heavy lifting are delayed 6 to 8 weeks. Desk work may require modifications such as standing desks or cushions. Gentle sexual activity is usually resumed after 2 to 4 weeks with comfort.
Will There Be Scarring After BBL / Butt Lift Surgery
Scarring is minimal with fat transfer, as liposuction incisions are very small. In excisional lifts, scars are strategically placed along natural creases. With proper care, scars fade significantly over time. Dr. Ali provides detailed scar care instructions for the best possible results.
