How Can Scars Be Removed from a Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure?

Scar Therapy

As mentioned previously, scars are forever lasting. There are products out there can reduce the color and thickness of the scar i.e. Bicorneum (best product out there) when used after the procedure. Used during post surgery, the high silicone content helps in reducing the scars lasting formation. Other than massage and these products, there isn't a way to totally remove a scar that has already formed. Best of luck.

Scars from BBL

All scars take 12-18 months to fully mature and fade. You may place tape over the scars, silicone sheets, or a silicone based topical product for best results. Scar massage is also helpful. Scar revision surgery actually creates a larger scar, and should be reserved for very poor quality scars.

You should be followed up with yuor plastic surgeon and if he ( she) feels that the scar may need some help then steroid injections and/or possible laser treatment may need to be considered.

Brazilian Butt Lift

The scars from a Brazilian Butt Lift procedure should be very minimal. I try to leave no more than 3 small incisions, only about 1/4 inch long, and I try to place them within the area that a bikini bottom would cover. There is no such thing as getting rid of or removing a scar, but it may be possible to improve its appearance. If your scars healed poorly and are raised and bumpy, it is possible that any type of surgical scar revision would result in the same way. The... more

No such thing as "scar removal"

Scars no matter how small or larger are permanent, forever things. They generally improve greatly with time and massage with things like emu oil, Mederma etc but there is no such thing as "scar removal." It was interesting to me when I used to work in a children's hospital how the mom's would come back after doing a scar "revision" on their child and ask "so when will we do the plastic surgery and get rid of the scar?"
