A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a cosmetic procedure that uses a patient’s own fat to change the size and shape of the buttocks, rather than relying on implants. Fat is harvested from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or lower back using liposuction and then transferred to the buttocks to change the shape and size.
In Australia, BBL procedures are offered at various clinics, with costs differing depending on the city, the clinic’s reputation, and the surgeon’s experience. As with any medical procedure, it’s essential to consult a qualified surgeon to understand the process, costs, recovery, and any associated risks.
How a Brazilian Butt Lift Works
The BBL procedure begins with liposuction to remove fat from areas such as the thighs, hips, or abdomen. The harvested fat is then processed to purify it for reinjection. Once prepared, the fat is injected into specific areas of the buttocks to create the desired shape and size. Multiple injections are made to ensure even distribution and minimise potential complications.
Recovery involves managing swelling and discomfort. Most patients notice swelling subsiding within two to three weeks, with the full results becoming visible over time. Many individuals can return to light activities or work after about a week, but recovery varies based on individual healing and the extent of the procedure.
