Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using the patient's own fat. The fat is typically harvested from another part of the body, such as the stomach, thighs, or buttocks, using liposuction. The fat is then purified and prepared for injection into the buttocks. During the procedure, the surgeon will make small incisions in the areas from which the fat is harvested and in the buttocks, and will inject the purified fat into specific areas to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks. The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia, which means the patient will be asleep during the procedure. The recovery process may include wearing a special garment to support the buttocks and taking medication to manage pain and swelling. It is important to discuss the potential risks and benefits of the surgery with a qualified plastic surgeon before making a decision.

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a surgical procedure applied to enhancing the buttock's shape, size, and appearance. To summarize, fats from other body areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and hips are taken and then transferred to the buttocks with liposuction. The whole process is specialized to have rounded and good-looking buttocks without the implants - buttock reshaping. 

Why is Brazilian Butt Lift Popular?

Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is popular because of the various reasons that meet the expectations of the patients, for example:

  • Good and natural-looking appearance: Since the patient’s fat that has been taken from different areas is used, achieving a natural and good-looking appearance becomes easier.
  • Benefits of liposuction along with the BBL: To take fats from other areas, liposuction is applied to them. Therefore, the taken fat allows these mentioned areas to reduce the rate of fat.

In addition to these, Turkey has been known for the popularity of BBL since the last decade.
