Sick of squatting? Stairmaster not helping? If you’re looking to boost your butt and workouts aren’t working, Dr. Christy Walker, a dual-board-certified cosmetic surgeon and gynecologist practicing in Plano, Texas, offers a cosmetic option to enhance your backside through the Brazilian Butt-Lift.
What Is a Brazilian Butt-Lift?
The Brazilian Butt-Lift – also known as the BBL – is a cosmetic procedure that increases the size and fullness of your buttocks using your own fat. Fat is taken from another body area and injected into your buttocks. The result is a reshaped and lifted butt.
How Is the BBL Different from Butt Implants?
The BBL uses your own fat to reshape and improve the look of your buttocks. Your fat is supple and smooth, which leaves you with a more natural appearance compared to implants. Implants, which are made of silicone, must go above or below your muscle tissue and can sag over time, which can be very noticeable.
The BBL procedure is also minimally invasive with less recovery time than the butt implant surgery – usually just four weeks. As a result, your risk of complications is much lower. Finally, because your fat is your own, your body will not reject it, which is a risk with butt implants. Additionally, the body will likely encapsulate implants by forming tough scar tissue around them. This can alter the final appearance of your buttocks.
What Can I Expect During the BBL Recovery?
After your BBL procedure, you will need to wear a compression garment for three weeks to help reduce swelling and get rid of extra fluid after the procedure.
How Long Does a BBL Last?
Although some of the fat injected into your buttocks will be absorbed back into your body, the results of your procedure can last up to 20 years! However, it is important to note that as you age, your buttocks will age, too. Working out and eating a healthy diet can help to keep your backside looking great for many years.
