I’m considering a Brazilian butt lift and I’d love to know if it also widens the hip area?
Answer: BBL Hello and great question. I appreciate the time you are spending researching this procedure. My name is Dr. Matthew J. Nykiel. I am a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, a Fellowship Trained Cosmetic Surgeon, and a Butt Augmentation Specialist. A BBL removes the fat from unwanted areas and transfers it to areas that need volume. Typically, this procedure includes 360 liposuction of the abdomen, waist and back with fat transfer to your butt, and hips depending on your desired results. If you wanted to widen hips, we can certainly transfer fat to that area. I would definitely recommend doing an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in this procedure and who can suggest what is needed. I hope that helps! Best of luck!

Answer: Does a BBL also widen your hips? Hello and thank you for your question and sharing your photos. The short answer is 'no'. However, it does accentuate your curves. Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) typically includes a 360 liposuction of the abdomen and flanks, thighs, arms, etc and fat grafting for gluteal augmentation. Liposuction of the flanks will narrow down the waist for an hourglass appearance and adding volume to buttocks in combination with liposuction of the lower back is intended at creating a natural curvy look. Basically, BBL removes the fat from unwanted areas and transfers it to areas that are desirable. It's important to understand that BBL cannot change the underlying body frame and therefore, individual results can vary, as everyone has a different anatomy. I would seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon for a full evaluation and advice. Best, Pejman Aflaki, M.D. Johns Hopkins-trained double board-certified plastic surgeon

Answer: Does a BBL also widen your hips? BBL is a very customizable procedure that can widen the hips if you want it to, or not if you don't. The only way to know for sure is to book a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you to see what your options are, make sure to bring in wish photos so your surgeon can discuss what would be required to get you from where you currently are to where you want to be. Best of luck!
