Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a safe procedure by a qualified and experienced surgeon. However, like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with BBL. Some of the risks and complications associated with the Brazilian Butt Lift include:

Infection: Infection can occur after any surgery, ranging from mild to severe. Proper postoperative care and adherence to the surgeon’s instructions can help minimize the risk of infection.

Bleeding: Excessive bleeding during or after the procedure can lead to complications, such as blood clots or low blood pressure.

Nerve damage: Fat injection into the buttocks can damage nerves, resulting in numbness or tingling.

Anesthesia risks: Allergic reactions or complications related to anesthesia can occur during any surgical procedure.

To reduce the risk of these and other potential complications, following all pre-and postoperative instructions and being honest about your medical history and current medications during the consultation is essential.

After surgery, patients can expect to see the appearance of fuller, rounder, and lifted buttocks immediately. However, Brazilian butt lift (BBL) surgery results can vary based on individual factors such as the patient’s size, the amount of fat transferred, and the surgeon’s technique.

It is important to note that the results of BBL may take time to be visible after surgery. It may take weeks or even months for the transferred fat to stabilize and for the body to adjust to the changes fully. Patients should carefully follow postoperative instructions during this time, including avoiding sitting or lying on the Hip for a while to allow for proper healing.

As for the durability of the results, the transferred fat becomes a permanent part of the body. But the appearance of the buttocks can still change over time due to weight fluctuations, aging, and other factors.

While it’s a famous beauty app, it’s not for everyone. Here are some factors that can determine your suitability for BBL:

Sufficient fat storage: BBL is a fat transfer procedure, which means that fat is taken from a particular body area (such as the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks) and transferred to the buttocks. Therefore, the donor site must have sufficient fat reserves for the procedure to be successful.

Physical fitness: BBL is a surgical procedure, and it is essential to be healthy before the process. Your surgeon can review your medical history and perform a physical examination to determine if you are healthy enough for surgery.

Realistic Expectations: It is essential to have realistic expectations about the outcome of the BBL. Your surgeon can help you understand what to expect based on your body type and goals.

Stable weight: It’s best to be stable before undergoing BBL. Significant weight fluctuations after the procedure can affect the appearance of the buttocks and the transferred fat.

Good skin elasticity: Good skin elasticity is essential for achieving optimal results with BBL. Your surgeon may evaluate your skin’s elasticity to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

No smoking: Smoking can increase the risk of complications during and after surgery, and it’s best to quit smoking before undergoing BBL.

The recovery period after a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) typically lasts several weeks, during which time you must follow your surgeon’s instructions carefully to ensure proper healing and optimal results.

Here are some general guidelines for the recovery process:

Rest and Avoid Sitting or Lying on Your Hip: Avoid sitting or lying on your Hip for the first 2-3 weeks after surgery to allow the transferred fat to settle correctly.

Wearing tights: Your surgeon may recommend wearing tights to reduce swelling and promote healing. These clothes should be worn for several weeks after surgery.

Take prescription medicines: Your surgeon may prescribe pain relievers, antibiotics, or other medicines. It is essential to take these medicines as directed.

Avoid strenuous activity: It is important to avoid strenuous activity or exercise for several weeks after surgery.

Attend follow-up appointments: Your surgeon will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure you are healing correctly. It’s essential to attend these appointments.

The operation is performed under general anesthesia, so you will not feel any pain. However, it is normal to experience pain, swelling, discomfort, and pain in the area where the fat was harvested after surgery. Your surgeon will give you pain medication and pain management instructions during recovery. It is essential to take your prescribed medications as directed and follow your surgeon’s instructions for postoperative care to minimize pain and discomfort.
