01 Aug Four Brazilian Butt Lift FAQs
If you’re considering a Brazilian Butt Lift, you probably have many questions. Here are the top four answers to questions that you’ll want to know:
What Exactly Is A Brazilian Butt Lift?
Two names refer to the same procedure – A Brazilian Butt Lift is also called Fat Grafting to the Buttocks. Essentially a Brazilian Butt Lift is a butt augmentation procedure that uses liposuction to harvest fat and inject it into the butt cheeks and the outer hips. The fat grafting procedure can be performed to just about anywhere in the body. When fat is injected into the buttocks, it is called a Brazilian Butt Lift.
How Are Brazilian Butt Lifts Performed?
Dr. John Park uses the latest advanced technology to perform buttock lifts. He uses your own fat, taken from areas where you don’t want it, and then re-injects it into your buttock areas where you do want it. The actual fat extraction is achieved with liposuction. After purification of the extracted fat, the best quality fat (where the fat cells are more likely to survive after re-injection) then gets threaded back into all layers of the buttocks by a method called fat grafting. This procedure shapes and contours the buttocks to achieve the shape and overall look you desire.
How Is A Brazilian Butt Lift Different than Butt Implants?
In contrast to butt implant surgery, which uses artificial implants to increase size and shape, a Brazilian Butt Lift uses your own fat to add volume and contour. While other surgeons may use implants instead of using your own fat to perform buttock augmentation, Dr. John Park believes the Brazilian Butt Lift technique is far superior to implants regarding a lower complication rate and better results. Thus, he only uses natural fat grafting for buttock augmentations.
What Is The Recovery From A Brazilian Butt Lift Like?
The overall outcome of this procedure depends not only on the skill of the surgeon but also on the recovery process. For the fat graft to survive, circulation is a must. Thus, the butt lift procedure requires that you do not sit on your buttocks or lay down on your back for at least two weeks.
