Different techniques, different goals

Armando Soto, MD answers: Brazilian butt lift - how is this different from a regular butt lift?

So how is a Brazilian butt lift different from any other type of butt lift?  How many types are there?  Is there some sort of regular butt lift that is different or better? 

I just want my booty to look rounder and more of the Apple Bottom look... is that Brazilian?

Hi there-

A traditional butt lift involves excision of loose skin from the upper buttock and lower back area, in order to reshape the buttocks in a patient who has experienced a significant weight loss and who has experienced sagging of the butt as a result.

A Brazilian Butt Lift involves removing unwanted fat by liposuction and injection of this fat into the buttocks. This is best for women who have good skin tone, but lack the buttocks volume, shape, and fullness they desire.

Based on your described goals, it sounds like a Brazilian Butt Lift would be more likely to achieve your goals for you. Find a surgeon certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery, and with experience performing these procedures, and discuss your goals with them.

Hope you get the butt you dream of!
