Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian butt lift, or BBL, is a plastic surgery procedure that can change the overall appearance of your buttocks.
In addition to refining your buttocks, BBL also removes fat from the abdomen, thighs, and other areas of your body using liposuction.
To learn more about the incredible effects a BBL may have, contact Vive Plastic Surgery in Tijuana, Mexico.
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
A Brazilian Butt Lift is a buttocks augmentation procedure. It transfers excess fat to enlarge the buttocks to create a rounder and shapelier rear end.
How Can a Brazilian Butt Lift
Refine My Figure?
Aging, pregnancy, and weight fluctuations can change your figure. If you wish to refine your curves, you may be interested in a BBL.
Brazilian butt augmentation involves liposuction and fat transfer to the buttocks. Unlike a buttock augmentation with a gluteal implant, fat can be placed in more than one area.
Your plastic surgeon can transfer fat to three areas in order to enhance the shape of your butt:
- The Buttocks
- The Hips
- The Thighs
The Effective Transformation
OF A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT SURGERY

A BBL can refine your figure and revitalize your confidence. Because it uses your natural fat, it also has fewer risks of complications. If you want to learn more about the possibilities, Dr. Benjamin Jaime Palasuelos Lopez, Dr. Felix Marquez, Dr. Omar Jimenez, and Dr. Padilla Reta can help.
Am I a Good Candidate for a BBL?
There are several factors that will determine if you may be a possible candidate for a BBL at our Tijuana, Mexico office, such as:
YOUR CURRENT FIGURE
Most people who want a shapelier butt are good candidates for a butt lift. However, it ultimately depends on your current figure. If you do not have enough fat to transfer to the buttocks area, then a BBL will not be possible. Men or women with flat or poorly developed buttocks with excess fat in other areas of their body are generally excellent candidates for buttocks enhancement.
YOUR OVERALL HEALTH
As with all surgical procedures, your overall health will also be an important indicator as to whether or not you will be a BBL candidate. You must be in good overall health to be considered for a Brazilian butt lift. Not only should you refrain from smoking, but you should have a healthy weight and cardiovascular system. Otherwise, the risk of complications may increase.
YOUR UPCOMING SCHEDULE
After your Brazilian butt lift, you will need two to three weeks to recover from the procedure. You will also have to attend follow-up visits with our plastic surgeons to ensure that you’re healing properly. Make sure to clear your schedule during that time. We have a recovery house near our Tijuana, Mexico, office, allowing you to heal comfortably after your Brazilian butt lift surgery.

BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFTS USE YOUR FAT
FOR SAFER, NATURAL-LOOKING RESULTS
Silicone implants, fillers, or injectables might yield good results when enhancing the buttocks, but a Brazilian butt lift is safe and reliable. Using your own fat for augmentation purposes reduces the risk of complications. It also helps avoid unsatisfactory results.
Your plastic surgeon can skillfully remove body fat from a problem area via liposuction. Because this fat is a part of your own body, you do not have to worry about implant rejection or allergic reactions to injectable solutions.
Our Plastic Surgeons
PRACTICE SAFE FAT INJECTION TECHNIQUES
In the Brazilian butt lift, fat is injected beneath the skin and within the fat layer of the buttocks. Deep injections within and below the gluteal muscles are associated with a high risk of fat embolism to the lung and heart.
To perform a safer surgery, the Tijuana, Mexico, plastic surgeons at Vive Plastic Surgery only inject fat superficially during BBL.
NON-SURGICAL BUTT LIFT PROCEDURES ARE ALSO AVAILABLE IF YOU WANT A SIMPLER OPTION TO REFINE YOUR FIGURE.
Consider Sculptra or Emsculpt
FOR NON-SURGICAL TREATMENT
SCULPTRA
Sculptra® butt lift (SBL) can stimulate fullness in the buttocks. It was FDA approved to stimulate your skin’s own natural collagen production to help restore its inner structure and increase facial volume.
In the Sculptra butt lift, Sculptra can be used off-label at the discretion of the physician and patient. The Sculptra butt lift is also referred to as a non-surgical butt lift since its results are achieved through injections.
EMSCULPT
The Emsculpt™ is an RF (radio frequency) method sometimes used for a non-surgical butt lift. Emsculpt uses electromagnetic waves that cause gluteal muscle contractions. Those contractions can thicken and strengthen muscle fibers, build new fibers, and increase muscle mass.
Additionally, Emsculpt uses radiofrequency to tighten and tone the skin of the buttocks. This results in a butt lift, but it does not add volume to the buttocks.
THE BBL RECOVERY PROCESS
Most butt lift patients can return to a desk job within one week. Returning to full activity levels varies case by case, but this usually occurs in two to three weeks.
Our patients can rest with peace of mind as they recover. You will have access to round-the-clock care at our Tijuana, Mexico, recovery house. That way, you can heal worry-free.
While healing, you must wear a special garment to control swelling from a Brazilian butt lift. It is recommended that you purchase a BBL pillow as well. Finally, you must keep the area clean, so that it can heal easily.

What Are the Risks and Complications
ASSOCIATED WITH A BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT SURGERY?
The risks of a fat grafting butt lift are similar to those of liposuction and fat grafting in other parts of the body.
As with any surgery, there is always the risk of infection, bleeding, and scarring. There is a 30% chance of fat re-absorption after butt enhancement causing a loss of injected volume. Risks will vary depending on the patient.
There is an increased mortality risk associated with intra-muscle injections compared to subcutaneous fat injections due to possible fat emboli. Our plastic surgeons perform superficial injections to reduce the risk of fat emboli.
