Will the Brazilian Butt lift add sufficient volume and shape to the bottom? I know the fat injection will add volume but does it give shape also. Which one will give lift, shape, and sufficient volume to the buttocks?

Brazilian Butt Lift

The Brazilian Butt Lift involves the transfer of fat (using liposuction) from undesirable areas of the body to the buttocks. It provides marked improvement in volume and shape! Fat transfer (Brazilian Butt lift) and buttock implants are the only FDA-approved ways to enlarge the buttocks. Other injections and shots are not approved by the FDA, are not administered by plastic surgeons (sometimes not by any type of doctor or health care professional) and can lead to infection,... more

Pump up the volume!

Key, Maybe this is what MARRS really had in mind. "Brazilian Butt Lift" refers to the technique of removing fat from the truncal area (abdomen, hips, flanks, back), processing it, and reinjecting it into the buttocks for a lifting and augmenting effect. With this procedure, fine sculpting can be performed to shape the buttocks because precise control is possible in the placement of the fat. The added volume of fat causes a lifting effect as well. So, you can expect a shaping,... more

Buttock lift, Brazilian buttock lift, fat transfer

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... more

What is a brazilian butt lift

Thanks for the question! Brazilian butt lift is a popular term for liposuction with autologous fat transfer to the buttocks. The benefit to this technique in comparison to a butt lift or butt implants are small scars with permanent improvement using your own tissue and the ability to contour other areas of your body (with liposuction). Find a board certified plastic surgeon who is practiced in this procedure. Good luck!

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... more

Brazilian Butt Lift and Fat injection (Lipoinjection) for Buttock Augmentation or Enlargement

It is different from a traditional butt lift in which skin is removed from the lower back and the sagging buttock skin is lifted. It is different from Buttock Augmentation which is typically performed with implants that are most commonly fabricated of silicone This most commonly is referred to as buttock lipoinjection.

Depends on your anatomy

Hi there, Achieving the desired buttock contour is going to greatly depend on your exact goals, and on your anatomy. Increasing buttock projection and improving the shape of the buttocks are both possible through the Brazilian Butt Lift technique, but only if you have sufficient tissue available elsewhere for harvest. It takes a fair amount to produce the desired shape for most patients. If sufficient tissue is not available, implants may be a better option for you.

Brazilian butt lift surgery

A Brazilian buttock augmentation is a fat transfer procedure with butt injection of fat harvested from different parts of the body. This procedure is not only about increasing the size of the buttocks, but also about improving the proportion of the hip to waist ratio. Achieving a nice look requires analyzing the aesthetics units that surround the buttocks. In other words, in order to achieve a nicer behind, the lower back needs to be liposuctioned aggressively to improve the takeoff of the... more

Butt reshaping

The combination of liposuction of the trunk and injection back into the buttocks is what changes every variable you've listed. IF and only IF you have enough fat to redistribute will it be enough. Many say that they typically inject over 5 and 600cc into each side but I've found that not to be the case. It really depends on your interests and your shape. Visit your board certified plastic surgeon. Best Wishes, DoctorMeade

Brazilian Butt Lift and Fat Injections

A Brazilian Butt Lift and Fat Injections to the Butt are different names for the same procedure.     During a Brazilian Butt Lift, liposuction of the abdomen, back, flanks, hips, and thighs is performed in order to provide fat for later injection into the buttocks and to recontour the entire trunk and gluteal region.  Next, the harvested fat is injected into the buttocks in different levels and different areas in order to maximally improve the shape, fullness, and... more

Butt Enlargement using Fat

Brazilian Butt Lift is actually a butt enlargement procedure, not a lift.  It can sculpt and enlarge the butt and is 100% natural. Most of the authorities on butt implants are now moving away from implants and towards fat grafting because fat grafting is a much more natural way to enhance the butt, and has a lot less complications.  The only real downside to fat (rather than implants) is that you need to have fat to give.  Skinny people have no choice but to go with... more

Brazilian butt lift

In my practice the Brazilian butt lift consists of sculpting around the butt to accentuate the mound and then fat transfer through injection to enhance the volume of the buttock mound.  These procedures are complementary and both essential to enhance the overall feminine appearance of the area.

Not all butt injections are the same!

Be careful when choosing a surgeon for this type of surgery. The success of this procedure is very dependent on the technique of the surgeon and the artistic eye of the surgeon.  Before the surgery, go into detail with your surgeon about how much fat will be removed, how much will be available after processing and WHERE you would like it injected. Every patient is different and this fat needs to be placed strategically to accentuate your best assets.  In our practice, we use... more

Brazilian Butt Lift and Butt injection from Fat transfer are the same

Yes, they are the same procedure. Brazilian Butt Lift is the name of the procedure and butt fat transfer is just an explanation of what is done during the procedure. The way it is performed is by liposuctioning fat usually from the back, flanks, abdomen, and thighs through several small stab incisions that are discretely placed. The fat is then processed and injected into the buttock through minute incisions.

Brazilian Buttock Lift and Fat Injection to the Buttocks are essentially the same

In a sense. The Brazilian Buttock lift utilizes the technique of injecting fat into the buttocks and involves Liposuction to areas of the body where tissues can be harvested and then micro-fat grafted to the Buttocks to create a natural, long lasting result of rounder, higher, and more shapely buttocks. Micro fat grafting is the key, as regular fat grafting will not get results that are as dramatic or long lasting. Keep in mind that you must have sufficient 'spare' fat in other areas... more

This procedure will not only increase your buttocks size, but can also provide an improvement in shape. However your question asks if it will add "sufficient volume and... more

Lift it, shape it, and firm it!

To answer your question simply, the brazilian buttock lift and fat transfer are terms to describe the same type of procedure which involves removing excess fat from unwated areas and transferring them with injections into an area such as the buttocks to create a fuller, lifted, firmer, and shaplier buttocks. I suggest viewing some before and afters to see what the procedure is capable of in the right hands. Dr. Sean Simon

Both are the same

They both refer to the same procedure which is injection of fat into the buttocks. This is very different from an open butt lift with skin excision. The fat transfer will add volume to this area and give it more shape.The problem is always how much fat is available for transfer. In general I need to inject 400cc into each side to get a good result. 800cc of fat transfered requires around 3 times as much liposuctioned. Good luck!

Brazilian Butt Lift vs Injections

Fat injections are on the spectrum of a Brazilian Butt Lift but a Brazilian Butt Lift is 3-dimentional, using fat in both the muscle AND subcutaneous tissue. The fat is harvested from an area of the body and injected. The degree of enhancement depends on your height and weight, smoking history (hopefully none) and your goals. Fat injections are often used in a patient who has a hollow spot after liposuction. A common technique is to harvest fat from somewhere else and inject it into that... more

Brazilian Buttock Lift and Shaping With Fat Transfer

Th absolute most important factor is the surgeon.

Implants vs. Fat Transfer

The preferred method for performing buttock augmentation is fat transfer, the use of the patient's own body fat to reshape the butt. Fat injection achieves a more natural result, has a lower risk of infection, and also contours the areas around the buttocks to enhance the overall effect. However, implants may be recommended for patients who have very little body fat to harvest, such as body-builders and naturally thin patients.

Brazilian Buttock Augmentation

A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is the catchy name given to sculpting of the buttocks and adjacent lower back and hips and selective augmentation of the buttock hemispheres by the grafting of fat obtained from other parts of the body (lower back, tummy etc).

It is an artistic endeavor in which the lower back and hips are sculpted and the buttock cheeks are enhanced to complement YOUR... more
