Buttock Lift

The average cost of a buttock lift is about $5,000. However, this will differ depending on the type of lift and location of your surgery

A Brazilian buttock lift is considered a semi-permanent procedure. Your buttocks can still be affected by weight changes and aging.

It’s best to avoid putting direct pressure on your buttocks for at least two to four weeks following your procedure.

Sitting should be avoided for a minimum of two weeks following your procedure. Afterward, it’s beneficial to use a cushion when sitting.

During a BBL procedure, the surgeon will remove unwanted fat from another part of the body and inject it into the buttocks. This will provide both volume and contouring.

A majority of the time, fat is removed from the abdomen or thighs for fat grafting. It has to come from an area where there is enough fat to be removed that can add volume to the buttocks.

On average, it takes about six to eight weeks to recover from a buttock lift.

Any weight gain or loss should have minimal impact on the appearance of your buttocks after a lift. However, this can depend on the person and the extent of the weight change.

After buttock augmentation, you should avoid sitting and sleeping on your back which can put pressure on the incisions or fat transfer site. For at least the first two weeks, you should lay on your stomach when sleeping. After the first few weeks, you may be given the okay to try sleeping on your side. You should continue to avoid sleeping on your back for several months following your procedure.

Lifting sagging buttocks can be difficult with exercise alone, especially if excess skin and tissue are the cause. Buttock augmentation can be performed to add volume to the buttocks, while a butt lift can remove excess skin and fat that is present. Liposuction techniques can also be performed in the area for optimal recontouring.

A Brazilian butt lift works by transferring fat cells from one area of the body to the buttocks. Fat is harvested using liposuction techniques and is then processed and purified. The fat cells are essentially a fat graft and must form their new blood supply once placed. Those that do not gain blood supply will die and your body will naturally eliminate them. However, fat cells that remain can give long-lasting results.

Liposuction requires very tiny incisions to access fatty tissue under the skin. These incisions are often so small theyre unnoticeable. If scarring is a concern, Dr. Kayastha can discuss ways to minimize it during your recovery.

Once the transferred fat cells establish a blood supply in their new location, they can remain there permanently. As long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle and prevent weight fluctuations, your results will last for the long term.

Butt implants are becoming less common versus alternative options like the Brazilian butt lift. There are pros and cons to each, however, and your plastic surgeon can discuss your best options during your consultation.

This can depend on the type of injection. For fat transfer, you can expect your results to last as long as you can maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.
