What Is Gluteal Augmentation (BBL)?

Gluteal augmentation at Ocean Drive Plastic Surgery involves using advanced fat transfer techniques to enhance the shape and size of the buttocks. This procedure, commonly known as a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), uses your body’s fat to create a fuller, more contoured appearance. The process involves liposuction to remove excess fat from the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. The harvested fat is then purified and strategically injected into the buttocks to achieve the desired volume and shape. This technique offers a natural-looking enhancement that complements your body’s proportions.

Benefits of Gluteal Augmentation (BBL)

Our expert team understands the positive impact body contouring can have on your confidence and self-image. If you feel dissatisfied with the shape or volume of your posterior, the Brazilian Butt Lift offers a natural approach to butt enhancement with a multitude of benefits. The benefits of this procedure include the following:

Natural-Looking Results: Use your body’s fat to achieve a fuller, more contoured look that complements your natural body shape.
Enhanced Body Proportions: Improve the balance between your upper and lower body for a more harmonious silhouette.
Minimally Invasive: Avoid synthetic implants by using your body’s fat for augmentation, reducing the risk of complications.
Reduce Unwanted Fat: Thanks to the necessary fat transfer, you can enjoy the added advantage of liposuction, which removes excess fat from other areas of your body.
Long-Lasting Results: The transferred fat cells establish themselves in the new location, providing enduring results.
Boosted Confidence: By enhancing your curves, you can significantly improve your self-esteem.

Is Gluteal Augmentation (BBL) Right for Me?

Considering gluteal augmentation, commonly referred to as Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), involves understanding if it aligns with your aesthetic goals and medical considerations. At Ocean Drive Plastic Surgery, we recognize that individuals seeking to enhance their buttocks may have various motivations, from improving volume and shape to addressing asymmetry or congenital concerns.

If you’re dissatisfied with the size or shape of your buttocks or if you seek more pronounced contours, a BBL could benefit you. If you’re considering this procedure, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our expert team to discuss your desires, assess your suitability, and explore personalized treatment options. Our commitment is to guide you toward achieving the silhouette you desire with safety, precision, and aesthetic excellence.

What to Expect: The Brazilian Butt Lift Process

The Brazilian Butt Lift process at Ocean Drive Plastic Surgery is designed to ensure your comfort and satisfaction from start to finish. During your consultation, we will assess your body contour, discuss your aesthetic goals, and develop a customized treatment plan. This initial meeting is a chance to ask questions you have and discuss what you can realistically expect from this procedure. Once your consultation is complete, you can generally expect the following from the rest of the process:

Preparation: On the day of your treatment, we will start by cleansing the treatment areas and marking the specific areas for liposuction and fat transfer.
Anesthesia: Anesthesia is administered to ensure your comfort. We prioritize your well-being and monitor you closely throughout the entire procedure.
Liposuction: Excess fat is removed from donor areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks using liposuction. The harvested fat is then purified to prepare it for injection.
Fat Transfer: Using advanced techniques, Dr. Durkin will strategically inject the purified fat into specific areas of your buttocks to enhance volume, shape, and lift. This process usually takes a few hours.
Final Assessment and Adjustments: After the initial injections, we will assess the results and make any necessary adjustments to ensure optimal balance and a natural-looking outcome. This step involves meticulous attention to detail to achieve the best possible results.

BBL Recovery & Results

After your gluteal augmentation (BBL) procedure, careful post-operative care is essential to ensure optimal healing and long-lasting results. You may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area, which are typical side effects immediately after surgery. Our team provides comprehensive post-operative instructions and pain management techniques to help manage these symptoms effectively.

Most patients can resume light activities within the first week, but strenuous exercise and activities should be avoided for several weeks to allow for proper healing. You’ll be advised to wear a compression garment to support your new contours and reduce swelling during the initial recovery period. As the swelling subsides over the following weeks, you’ll see initial improvements in your buttock shape and size.

However, it’s important to note that final results develop gradually as the body adjusts to the transferred fat. Typically, results from a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) can last for many years, with some fat cells establishing a permanent presence in the buttocks. We will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress, guide you on maintaining your results, and discuss any potential touch-up procedures if needed.
