Brazilian Butt Lift: How much will it cost? How long is the procedure?

It is difficult to determine from the single image if surgery would be worthwhile. I
would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is
most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of
these procedures each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as
before and after photos on that surgeon's website.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Hello, and thank you for reaching out to us.With the BBL, your surgeon will take fat from your body, in most cases your abdomen, and transfer it to areas of your butt, working to create the perfect structure and contour. I would recommend a body contouring solution to symmetrically and aesthetically perfect the BBL. Remember, only consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in the BBL and body contouring. And don't be afraid to request before-and-after pictures. Every surgeon has a different style, so you want to be sure your vision is reflected in the work they have done.Every patient is different, therefore every procedure is different. Depending on where you are and how much work there is to be done, the cost of a BBL can be anywhere from $7,000 to $15,000. For an accurate assessment, an in-person consultation with your surgeon is recommended. This will allow you to first determine the steps and procedures required to meet your goals and to properly plan the roadmap. There are numerous financing options available, whether it be CareCredit or in-house financing at some practices. It is all about designing the perfect plan for You.Good luck, please let us know how it goes.- Dr. Constantino Mendieta

Great question! The Brazilian butt lift allows you to have stubborn fat removed from unwanted areas and transferred to areas that can benefit from the added volume such as the buttocks and hips. I typically charge anywhere from $7,000 and up for this procedure. It is generally an easy recovery with recovery lasting around 1-2 weeks. Patients may experience bruising and swelling in the areas where liposuction was performed, with very little pain on the actual buttocks. Please be sure to visit a board certified plastic surgeon who performs at least 100 of these procedures per year. Also, read reviews, look at before and afters, check the surgeon's credentials. etc. Best Wishes, Dr. Newall
