Naturally Lift & Augment Your Buttocks
These days, shapely, rounded, and perky derrière are all the rage. If you want to achieve a contoured body with an hourglass figure, you may want voluminous and perky buttocks. You may also want to enhance your buttocks to counter the effects of age, childbirth, and weight fluctuations on your buttocks. The Brazilian butt lift is one of the most effective augmentation techniques because it relies on natural fat cells harvested from your body, making it safer and more natural than implants.
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
A Brazilian butt lift is a surgical procedure to improve the shape, size, and symmetry of your buttocks. It involves transferring fat from other areas of your body, such as your thighs or abdomen, to your buttocks. We offer a Brazilian butt lift in Houston which does two things: it adds volume to the butt and shapes the butt to create a more youthful appearance. Since it relies on natural fat cells harvested from your body (instead of implants), the results look and feel completely natural.
Dr. Erickson’s Brazilian Butt Lift Technique
Dr. Erickson offers a highly personalized Brazilian butt lift procedure after a thorough evaluation. During your consultation, he carefully examines your body, discusses your goals and concerns, reviews your medical history, and determines if you’re a good candidate for the procedure. You can only undergo a Brazilian butt lift if you have excess fat cells in a donor site. If you are extremely thin, you may not have enough excess fat to donate. After a thorough consultation, he curates a personalized surgical plan.
Your Brazilian butt lift is performed under general anesthesia at our accredited surgical facility. The first step of the procedure is to harvest fat from other areas of the body. This is typically done through liposuction, which is a process of suctioning out fat cells from underneath the skin. The most common donor areas are the thighs, love handles, and stomach. Once the fat has been harvested, it is purified and injected into strategic locations of the upper buttocks.
In some cases, the surgeon for your Brazilian butt lift in Houston may trim away excess skin tissues to make the buttocks look firm and taut. But in most cases, the fat grafts are enough to improve the contours of the buttocks. After all necessary changes are made, the surgeon closes the incisions with sutures. The entire procedure takes 1 to 2 hours.
Goals of a Brazilian Butt Lift:
- Achieving a more rounded, hourglass-shaped figure
- Increasing the size and projection of your buttocks
- Making your buttocks look more lifted and firm
- Correcting imbalances in your proportions
- Enhancing your self-confidence and self-image
Recovery After a Brazilian Butt Lift
Most patients report feeling sore and tender for a few days after surgery. However, this is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain medications. You will need to take it easy for at least a week after your surgery. This means no strenuous activity or sitting for long periods. You should also avoid wearing pants that fit tightly around your waist. You can resume regular activities after 4 to 6 weeks, and the final results may appear after 3 to 6 months.
