A Brazilian butt lift offers a shapelier, fuller, and younger-looking butt without resorting to implants. At Smooth Solutions Medical Aesthetics in Williamsville, NY, Dr. Jack G. Bertolino, a seasoned aesthetic professional, offers this specialized procedure to enhance curves naturally. The Brazilian butt lift, or BBL, utilizes your fat to create volume and shape, providing a safe and personalized approach to achieving a lifted, youthful appearance.
The Two-Step Brazilian Butt Lift Process
The Brazilian butt lift involves two main steps: fat harvesting and fat transfer. Many of our patients choose Brazilian butt lift because it offers two great benefits in one: Eliminating excess fat and plumping your butt at the same time.
Fat Harvesting
Dr. Bertolino begins the procedure with Vaser HiDef 360 ultrasound liposuction. With this method, he uses state-of-the-art technology to expertly suction fat from a donor area (the abdomen, flanks, or thighs) into a closed single-use container, ensuring sterility.
For Vaser HiDef 360 liposuction, Dr. Bertolino uses a blend of lidocaine, sodium bicarbonate, and epinephrine to numb the fat donation area and shrink blood vessels to prevent bruising and minimize discomfort afterward. Patients typically find the procedure very comfortable.
Dr. Bertolino then purifies the harvested fat, ensuring he has the highest quality fat for reinjection.
Fat Injection into the Buttocks
Performing tiny, highly precise injections, Dr. Bertolino layers the fat at varying depths to ensure smooth and even distribution. He particularly focuses on improving roundness in the upper buttocks, as firm and rounded upper buttocks look youthful and lifted.
Dr. Bertolino typically injects about 50% more fat than what’s required by volume. He does so because losing some of the transferred fat is normal after the procedure. But, in general, patients usually retain 60-80% of the transferred fat long term.
After your procedure, Dr. Bertolino provides specific guidelines to help you get the best results. For example, you must avoid sitting for a couple of weeks. There’s a special pillow that can keep you comfortable during this recovery process, and your results are well worth the wait.
