Brazilian Buttock Augmentation ~ Does It Work?
How is a Brazillian 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 Brazillian?

Brazilian Butt Lift is Most Natural
The Brazilian buttock enhancement technique uses the bodies own fat cells to add volume and to shape and enhance the buttocks. Regular buttock lift is a vague term that can refer to large incisions that may be required to lift the buttock skin. This is best for patients that have lost massive amounts of weight who need lifting of the loose skin and soft tissue of the buttocks.
Only tiny liposuction type incisins are require dto move the bodies own fat cells from where they are not needed...

They are very different
A regular butt lift will take sagging buttocks tissue and lift it up by cutting out and tightening loose skin. It typically will not add volume to your bottom end unless an autoaugmentation procedure is used at the same time. An autoaugmentation procedure uses the deep tissues over the gluteus muscles and fold them up to bulk up the newly lifted tissues. The scarring and downtime can be significant. It is a good procedure for patients with loose skin (eg. massive weight loss, etc.) A...

Different techniques, different goals
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...

Brazilian butt lift... blame it on Rio!
There are several ways to improve the appearance of the butt and gluteal regions. In the past, surgeons have used butt implants, which are solid firm silicone pieces. These implants carried the risk of extrusion (coming out of the incision), infection, and displacement. Also, depending on how they were inserted, they could affect the muscles of the butt, as well.
In my practice, a butt augmentation is performed with a "Brazilian butt lift." I perform this as a combination of...

Brazilian Butt Lift: What is it and what are the options
A Brazilian Butt lift involves harvesting fat from around the buttock through liposuction and then injecting prepared fat into the deeper tissue in the buttock to help improve shape and projection of the buttock. This is a relatively non-invasive approach to buttock contouring that takes approximately 3 hours and is an outpatient operation. The options for buttock contouring include a standard buttock lift which can involve the creation of fatty flaps which help maintain buttock shape...

Butt lift information
As others have answered, Brazilian butt lift is called that because in Brazil, it looks like all of the women have had their buttock lifted! The procedure involves exactly what you're stating, an apple bottom look (if that's what you're looking for). Typically, one is limited by your shape, muscle and frame. It depends on how high your pelvis goes up relative to your gluteus and what general shape it's in. These details will be clarified during your...

Brazilian butt lift
Buttock augmentation in the form of fat injection or the Brazilian butt lift is a fat surgery. Fat is the storage compartment. When you take in calories that you do not burn that very second they are stored as fat. What you do with the Brazilian butt lift is to liposuction fat away from places we do not want fat and move it to the buttocks, to lift shape and shade the buttocks.
What you are physically doing is liposuction in the abdomen, back and flank, collecting this fat, removing the...

In Southern California, and especially in Los Angeles, Brazilian Buttock Augmentation is become very popular, not only among the Hispanic population, but also among African-Americans, Asians, etc.
Brazilian Buttock Augmentation, when done well, can give a women (or man) a great figure with sensual curves. This procedure is very safe, as compared to use of buttock implants. Its results are very predictable and lasting.

How is a Brazilian Butt lift different from a traditional Butt lift or enlargement
There has been much talk about the Brazilain Butt lift.
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.
In my opinion, it is best to perform this procedure under general anesthesia due to the extensive nature of the...

Brazilian buttock lift - does it work?
My answer - absolutely yes. A brazilian buttock augmentation involves harvest fat from areas of your body where there is excess fat and injecting that fat carefully into the central zone of your buttock. In addition, it involves liposculpting the buttock to facilitate a more rounded look.

Brazillian butt lift
Absolutely! The results can be very natural, if done correctly. Fat is harvested (removed) from the abdomen, flanks, back, thighs, and arms. Those areas are lipo suctioned for the fat. The fat is then transferred to the buttocks. The key is have large volume, if there is enough fat, so that the right shape is achieved.

Brazilian Butt Lift
A “regular” butt lift does not add projection to the buttock area like a Brazilian butt lift does. It only lifts the buttock area and tightens the skin. This results in flattening of the butt. It also involves long incisions above the butt for the lift. A Brazilian butt lift involves liposuctioning areas of the body and injecting that fat into your buttock. The Brazilian butt lift results in a lifted and fuller buttock without incisions.

Brazilian Butt Lift without Scars
In the right patient, a brazilian butt lift can be performed with small access incisions which are less than 1 cm. The purpose of the lift is to increase the fullness and roundness of the buttocks. It is typically performed by removing the fat through liposuction above, below, and around the buttocks.
When removing the fat, it is carefully removed to prevent damage to the fat cell by employing hand guided liposuction and the fat is refined and then injected in multiple ares over the...

Brazilian Butt Enhancement
You have to differentiate between a lift, which means there is sagging of tissue and then need a lift, which entails removal of excess skin, by cutting the excess.
Buttock enhancement means you want more volume and roundness and shape to the buttock. This is Brazilian Butt Lift.

Brazilian Butt Lift is a fat transfer and not a true lift
The brazilian lift is a fat grafting and not a true lift. It works very well to add volume to the buttocks.In my mind it is becoming the standard of care for this specific goal. The other lifts include the lower body lift which is a true open (excisional) lift that include skin removal. Hope that helps!

Difference between Brazilian Buttock Lift and Buttock Lift
The Buttock Lift procedure involves removing excess skin in the buttock region and tightening the skin in the upper part of the buttocks. This results in a lifting of the buttocks. It effectively cuts away tissue at the lower back and buttock junction, and elevates the buttock tissues for reshaping of the entire butt.
This is a good procedure if you aren't really looking for augmentation, and instead just want to remove a sagging appearance. It can also be used in tandem with liposuction...

Brazilian Butt Lift and Butt Implants
If you want your buttocks to look rounder, there are basically 2 options: Buttock Implants or Brazilian Butt Lift. Both of these procedures can make your buttocks larger and sometimes rounder. The big difference is feel and safety. Buttock implants have a very unnatural feel, frequently an unnatural appearance and many potential complications with a high rate of need for additional surgery. Brazilian Butt Lifts, however, are 100% natural feeling as well as looking, and rarely ever need...

Benefits of a brazilian butt lift
Thanks for the question -
A brazilian butt lift uses fat transferred from other parts of your body. Traditional butt lifts rely on incisions to remove excess skin to improve the shape whereas this technique counts on increasing volume to improve the shape.
In my San Francisco area practice we are finding many patients can benefit greatly from a Brazilian and avoid the scars and other problems of the older types of butt lift.
I hope this helps.
