What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A Brazilian butt lift is a body contouring procedure that uses your own fat to enhance the shape and volume of your backside. Fat is removed from areas like the abdomen, waist, back, or thighs through liposuction. It’s then carefully transferred to your buttocks to create a fuller, rounder appearance.

This approach allows you to slim problem areas while enhancing curves in a natural-looking way. Because your own tissue is used instead of implants, the results often feel softer and look more realistic.

BBL Treatment Options: Brazilian Butt Lift Techniques at Chua Plastic Surgery

Traditional Brazilian Butt Lift

Most patients undergo a standard Brazilian butt lift using fat harvested from multiple areas of the body. This allows Dr. Chua to sculpt the waist and hips while building volume in the buttocks for a more dramatic overall transformation.

BBL With Extended Liposuction

For patients seeking more comprehensive contouring, Brazilian butt lift surgery can be combined with extended liposuction of the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs. This approach enhances contrast between the waist and hips for more defined curves.

Revision Brazilian Butt Lift

Patients who have undergone prior BBL surgery but are unhappy with their results may be candidates for revision. Dr. Chua routinely treats complex cases, including uneven fat distribution or insufficient projection from previous procedures.

Starting at $11,000 Brazilian Butt Lift Costs and Financing

A Brazilian butt lift from Dr. Chua starts at $11,000. This includes liposuction and fat transfer. The final cost of your procedure will depend on how many areas are treated with liposuction and the overall complexity of your surgical plan.

We accept financing through CareCredit® and Cherry to make treatment more accessible! Qualified patients can divide the cost of surgery into low-interest or zero-interest monthly payments.

Surgery Day

Brazilian butt lift surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. Dr. Chua starts with liposuction and then carefully processes the fat before transferring it to the buttocks. You’ll be able to return home the same day of surgery.

First Two to Three Weeks

Expect swelling and bruising during the initial healing period. It’s essential to avoid sitting or placing direct pressure on the buttocks to protect fat survival. We’ll provide you with special cushions and clear instructions on positioning techniques.

Weeks Four Through Eight

Swelling will continue to lessen as the transferred fat begins to stabilize. You can gradually increase light activity, but following Dr. Chua’s precautions about pressure will still be important.

Long-Term Results

Your final results will become apparent over several months as the fat cells establish a blood supply. With stable weight maintenance, results can be long-lasting.

Frequently Asked Questions About a Brazilian Butt Lift in San Diego, CA

How much of a volume increase can I expect?

Am I a good candidate for a BBL?

The best candidates for a Brazilian butt lift are in good overall health and have sufficient donor fat. If you’re especially lean, Dr. Chua can recommend alternative treatments to help you achieve your goal contours.
