Brazilian Butt Lift
Conveniently located to serve the areas of New York, NY

A Brazilian butt lift is the most effective way of adding volume and shape to the buttocks naturally. BBL uses liposuction to remove fat from unwanted areas, such as the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs, and then transfers this fat to the butt to enhance volume and curves. Many patients find that exercise alone for a more rounded bottom cannot show the desired improvements they hoped for. Losing weight can naturally decrease buttocks size, as well. Dr. Levine at NYC Lipo uses the most advanced techniques for shaping the buttocks, allowing him to create the exact shape each patient is looking for. Using your own natural fat produces a result that is softer and more natural-looking than implants or other artificial techniques of buttocks augmentation. BBL not only adds more volume to the buttocks but provides a beautifully-lifted effect for youthful and natural-looking results. Any irregularities or asymmetries can also be corrected during BBL, as well.

Before your Brazilian butt lift procedure, Dr. Levine will assess your anatomy and help you decide which buttocks shape would work well with your figure. Fat is removed from areas of excess fat using liposuction and administered into the buttocks to add volume and shape. Fat transfer is performed by inserting a cannula beneath the skin through a tiny incision. The procedure typically takes 2 to 4 hours, and patients are able to go home after their Brazilian butt lift is completed.
Other Procedures
Yes. Brazilian butt lift can be used alongside other body-sculpting procedures to achieve optimal results. Brazilian butt lift can complement procedures such as tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and more.
Ideal Candidate
The best candidates for Brazilian butt lift are patients that have trouble reaching their desired buttocks shape despite eating healthy, exercising, and leading an overall healthy lifestyle. Because gaining your preferred buttocks shape can be difficult to achieve, a Brazilian butt lift can help many patients reach their cosmetic goals. Many patients may not naturally have a more voluminous figure, so a Brazilian butt lift can help them receive their desired shape. BBL is a great option for those looking to both slim down stubborn areas of fat and achieve a large, more balanced buttocks. BBL also reduces the appearance of cellulite. Gaining an improved appearance can help increase your confidence and overall feeling of well-being. During your consultation, Dr. Levine will discuss the best options for your Brazilian butt lift procedure, based on your particular goals and needs.
Anesthesia Types
A Brazilian butt lift typically requires twilight or general anesthesia, depending on the procedure. Dr. Levine can discuss the best anesthesia option for you during your consultation.
Expectations
Recovery from Brazilian butt lift varies from patient to patient. Mild bruising and swelling may occur one to two weeks after your procedure. Patients can typically return to work and continue daily activities within a week of their procedure. Exercise and other strenuous activities may be returned to later than a week or two after your surgery.
Results
In order to maximize your Brazilian butt lift results, it is important to follow all pre and post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Levine.
Pre-Care
Certain products and supplements should be avoided in the weeks prior to your Brazilian butt lift procedure, unless medically necessary. By doing so, patients minimize their risk of bruising and swelling. Blood-thinners and medications that contain ibuprofen or aspirin should be avoided. Patients should also refrain from taking multivitamins and herbal supplements.
Post-Procedure
Certain medications, including Tylenol, Bromelain, and Arnica Montana, may be recommended to alleviate pain or discomfort post-procedure. For more details regarding our post-treatment care suggestions, click here.
