what is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian butt lift is a popular and effective way to attain a fuller, shapelier posterior. Because of significant weight loss, aging, gravity, or genetics, patients may experience a flat bottom. During a Brazilian butt lift treatment, Dr. Brandon-Dzung Mang adds volume to the buttocks using a fat transfer. A fat transfer utilizes liposuction to remove stubborn fat from your stomach, thighs, or hips, then transfers it to your buttocks. At Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery in Tampa, FL, Dr. Mang is an expert surgeon who can contour your posterior and provide beautiful, natural-looking results.

Who makes a good Candidate For A BBL?
Ideal patients for a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) in Tampa, FL will be evaluated to make sure they are able to undergo this treatment. The first priority is to determine if there is enough fat in certain body areas to harvest for the removal, grafting, and transfer process. If you are of a low body weight or have limited fat to harvest, you might not be a good fit for this surgery. Moreover, it is also important to have healthy skin laxity. If your skin is loose, sagging, or wrinkled, you may require a surgical butt lift. If you are at a stable weight, have the right amount of fat to remove, and prefer not to use artificial enhancements like implants, this procedure can be a terrific choice for you.
What can I Expect with a bbl procedure?
During your consultation, Dr. Mang will determine if you have good skin laxity and enough fat for the transfer process. If you do, we use liposuction to extract stubborn fat from the stomach, hips, or thighs. Next, the extracted fat is purified and injected into the buttocks. Until achieving the desired result, this step is repeated several times. Following your surgery, you will need to care for both the liposuctioned area and the buttocks, and you will experience some discomfort. It takes around 4 – 6 weeks to see a more round and shapely rear end.
What is recovery like?
Following a BBL, you will be sent home to heal. Remember there are two areas that require recovery time — where the fat was removed and your enhanced buttocks. Both areas will have bruising. Patients should try their best to not place additional weight on the rear end for at least two weeks after surgery. As soon as the swelling has subsided, results are noticeable, but usually the full outcome is seen in around 4 – 6 weeks. The butt will appear round and shapely. In addition, the body parts that had lipo may make your result more beautiful if it was implemented on the lower back or flanks.
Brazilian Butt Lift FAQs
How much does a Brazilian butt lift cost?
The total cost for your Brazilian butt lift (BBL) includes the costs for both fat transfer and liposuction surgery, anesthesia, facility fees, as well as pre-and post-operative care. When Dr. Mang has developed your BBL surgical plan, he will be able to give you cost estimates. It's best to concentrate on getting the results you want from a doctor you feel comfortable with, like Dr. Mang, so we'll help make your BBL affordable. Rejuve Aesthetic Surgery takes several payments, and we can give you information on low-interest financing.
Should I get implants or a fat transfer?
If you want to increase the volume of your butt, you get butt augmentation using either silicone implants or a fat transfer, which is commonly called a Brazilian butt lift. During your initial consultation, Dr. Mang will discuss both methods and help you choose which best matches your body and wants. He will also examine your body to find the best areas that would benefit from liposuction (typically the thighs, back, or stomach). If you have a low body fat percentage, you may not be a candidate for a Brazilian butt lift.
How long will my results last?
While some fat may be reabsorbed after your BBL, the majority of the fat cells will remain in your buttocks for many years. To keep your results, you need to maintain a steady weight because significant weight gain or loss will compromise your BBL results. That's why Dr. Mang suggests you be at a healthy, stable weight before your Brazilian butt lift — so it is easier for you to maintain.
How can I recover faster after a BBL?
If you want to minimize your recovery after a Brazilian butt lift, Dr. Mang or a member of his team will go over post-surgical instructions and tips. You will need to avoid sitting on your buttocks for at least two weeks as the area heals. Dr. Mang suggests you have a Boppy nursing or donut-shaped pillow that allows you to sit down with pressure placed on your legs instead of your buttocks. Light stretching and short walks will help to improve your blood flow and decrease inflammation. Dr. Mang may also recommend a lymphatic drainage massage that can help your recovery.
Will a Brazilian butt lift remove loose skin?
While it's called a Brazilian butt lift, this name is a little confusing because it's not actually a butt lift (gluteoplasty), which corrects loose skin in the butt. However, the extra volume transferred to your buttocks during a BBL can fill some loose skin. For moderate or severe sagging skin in your buttocks, you might need a butt lift with your Brazilian butt lift. Dr. Mang can go over your options based on your needs and concerns during your initial consultation.
