Brazillian Buttock Lift is the same as Buttock Augmentation by Fat Injection

I have had much experience with fat injection for Buttock Augmentation, or otherwise known as Brazillian Butt lift. There are several things that contribute to the achievement of good buttock projection. First, there needs to be enough fat injected in the buttock. Having reviewed many before-and-after pictures, I found that the major problem in not achieving this goal is lack of adequate volume of fat injection. It is not unusual to inject 800-1000 ccs of fat per cheek.

The second factor, is the softness of the buttock tissue, and if it will be able to accomodate the injected fat. There are patients that have a very thight buttocks which can not take much fat injection.

Finally, the shape of the buttocks is not only dependend on the amount of fat injection, but also on the sculpturing of the surrounding tissue. I have had patients that were able to achieve great buttock shape and form without fat injection, and just with liposculpturing of the surrounding tissue.

A Brazilian buttock lift and fat transfer to the buttock are essentially the same thing. This involved liposuction of the lower back, sides(flanks), and sometimes abdomen to harvest and remove unwanted fat. Then, the fat is prepared and strained and only the pure fat (without blood or fluid) is injected deep into the gluteal  area to provide a fuller look to the buttocks.

This not only creates a larger appearing buttock, but with the liposuction of the lower back and sides gives a very aesthetically appealing gluteal/lower back/waist line appearance.

The ideal patient for this procedure is someone who is in good health/shape but has a little extra fat; that fat is necessary in order to transfer it to the gluteal area.

Please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon who is familiar with this procedure.
