Brazilian butt lift is a surgical procedure that employs specialized fat transfer techniques to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks. It effectively combines liposuction and the gluteal fat transfer procedure to get the job done and serves two different purposes: augmenting buttocks and sculpting the donor areas. By injecting body fat into the buttocks, it accentuates their volume while providing natural-looking results.

Involved Procedure
Brazilian butt lift is performed in an outpatient setting under spinal with sedation or general anesthesia. The whole procedure can be broken down into three phases:
- Fat extraction or harvest
- Fat purification
- Fat injection
Your Plastic Surgeon begins by marking the donor and recipient sites. They then draw a small incision on the area with high-fat deposits and introduce a tumescent solution. This solution controls bleeding, and also numbs the region.
The Plastic Surgeon then inserts a fine tube; a cannula. This instrument is used to suction the fat and collect it in a container. This phase is followed by the purification process which cleans the aspirate to separate the impurities. All of this is carried out quickly to prevent the fat mass from getting infected.
Now, the collected fat cells are injected into the target areas with the help of a narrow cannula and a syringe. Quick rhythmic motions are performed to do the job. Great care is taken while disturbing the fat evenly across the region to maintain symmetry and a balanced appearance.
Finally, the incisions are closed with the help of adhesives and compression garments are applied to prevent swelling and bruising. The whole procedure may take about 4 hours in total.
