Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) in North Denver
This is not a real patient photo. This is an example, and results may vary.
The short answer
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) uses liposuction and subcutaneous fat transfer to change buttock and surrounding body contour. It may suit patients with appropriate donor fat who can follow the required recovery plan. Suitability is decided individually at the Northglenn practice after an examination and a review of your medical history.
Overview
What is Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?
The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a procedure that enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using the patient's own fat. During the procedure, fat is liposuctioned from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, then purified and re-injected into the buttocks to achieve a fuller, more youthful contour.
This procedure not only increases volume but also improves the overall shape and lift of the buttocks, providing natural-looking results. Ideal for individuals looking for a non-silicone option for enhancement, the BBL can create a more proportionate and balanced silhouette. Recovery time can vary, but most patients can expect noticeable results once fully healed, with a more sculpted and lifted appearance.
Key Benefits
What does Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) do?
A Brazilian Butt Lift enhances and sculpts your curves using your own natural fat. It adds volume and shape to the buttocks while slimming areas like the stomach, waist, and thighs through liposuction. The result is a fuller, lifted silhouette with a smoother, more sculpted body contour. Because it uses your body's own fat, results look natural, feel soft, and evolve beautifully with your figure over time.
- Natural-looking volume and shape
- Creates a snatched waist and hourglass contour
- Uses your own fat, not implants
- Improves curves from every angle
- Long-lasting results with a natural feel
Recovery
What is recovery like?
Following a BBL, you can expect swelling, tenderness, and tightness in the treated areas for the first couple of weeks. Sitting directly on your butt is avoided for around 2 to 3 weeks to protect the transferred fat, and a special pillow is used once you start sitting again. Light movement begins early to support healing and prevent stiffness, but gym workouts and heavy activity are paused for about 6 weeks. As swelling settles, your shape becomes more defined, and final results take shape over 3 to 6 months as the fat integrates and smooths out naturally.
- Avoid sitting directly on buttocks for 2 to 3 weeks
- Compression garment for 6 to 8 weeks
- Light walking after a few days
- Gym and lifting pause for about 6 weeks
- Results refine 3 to 6 months as fat settles
- Sleep on your stomach or side for the first few weeks to protect the grafted fat
