Brazilian Butt Lift  

A patient care concierge will guide you through the entire consultation process, which can be attended in person or virtually. During the consultation, your surgeon will learn about your goals, answer any questions, and perform an examination to create a personalized surgical plan. You will then be matched with a surgical coordinator who will walk you through each step of the preoperative process.

A Brazilian Butt Lift allows you to choose the exact area where you want to remove fat deposits. Common locations include the abdomen, upper and lower back, hips and flanks, and inner and outer thighs. In some cases, the surgeon will use more than one treatment site to collect enough fat to achieve your goals.

For the first step of the procedure, Barrett Plastic Surgery uses the revolutionary S.A.F.E liposuction technique. S.A.F.E lipo uses mechanical agitation to loosen fat cells before removal to preserve as many as possible for the injection process. A small incision is made, and a small tube, or cannula, is inserted directly into the fat deposit. The fat cells are harvested and then prepared for injection.

Multiple injections are placed in the hips and buttocks to inject fat with a symmetrical, natural-looking result. The cannula injects fat, effectively reducing the risk of bruising around the injection points and allowing for a smooth insertion of the fat cells into the tissue. 

To close the incisions, your surgeon will use a unique layered suturing technique that minimizes tension to minimize scarring.

Patients typically experience soreness for the first days after a Brazilian Butt Lift. Swelling and bruising are common side effects that may last up to one month. We encourage patients to avoid excessive pressure on the backside during the first two weeks following surgery. This recovery period ensures the maximum amount of fat cells survive, allowing you to keep your new, full shape. Compression garments are often recommended to encourage healing and healthy blood flow in the treatment areas.

Your surgeon will provide specific instructions for optimal post-operative care, including an advanced scar management protocol after the initial healing period. Your surgical team is always available and will closely monitor your recovery in the weeks and months following surgery.
