Buttock Augmentation and Lifts

Butt Augmentation – Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

With the rising popularity of models and celebrities who have large, shapely butts, the ideal buttock shape and size has changed to one that is as voluminous as possible. To that end, for people with flat, small, or even sagging buttocks, we provide procedures that can enhance your backside for natural-looking volume and shape in many ways.

What is Buttock Augmentation?

Buttock augmentation is any surgical procedure designed to increase the size or improve the contour or shape of the buttocks. This includes several surgical options, which include buttock implants or fat grafting. Buttock implants are medical devices filled with silicone that are placed deep within the natural tissues of the buttocks.

Fat grafting buttock augmentation, on the other hand, is commonly called a Brazilian butt lift. This procedure involves using liposuction to remove fat from an area of the body, such as the abdomen, back, or thighs, and moving it to the buttocks.

At The Plastic Surgery Center in Maryland, we perform a wide variety of body contouring procedures to help you achieve the shape and proportions you desire. If you’re interested, we invite you to schedule a buttock augmentation consultation with our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Rosenberg, using the button below.

HOW DOES A BUTT AUGMENTATION WORK?

Buttock augmentation can achieve several cosmetic changes to the buttocks. The surgery serves to increase fullness, roundness, and projection while creating an appealing contour. Many patients choose butt enhancement to create a more balanced and symmetrical figure overall. The procedure can enhance a patient’s self-confidence and help them achieve the body contour that they prefer, improving their self-image.

A butt augmentation with implants actually works similarly to breast augmentation. During the procedure, your plastic surgeon uses soft silicone implants, fat grafting using your own fat cells, or both to increase the size of your butt.

When doing a BBL surgery, your plastic surgeon will perform liposuction and then inject that fat into your buttock.

Butt augmentation is ideal for those who are:

  • Looking to increase the size, shape, fullness, or roundness of their buttocks
  • Unhappy with a loose, flat, or sagging buttock after significant weight loss

During your complimentary consultation with our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Rosenberg can perform a check-up to determine whether your own natural excess fat can be used for your augmentation or whether butt implants are required.

Butt augmentations and lifts are often combined with thigh liftstummy tucks, and liposuction, or as part of a mommy makeover.

WHAT IS A BUTTOCK LIFT SURGERY?

If the size of the buttocks is not a concern but you still see some sagging, a buttock lift is an option. This procedure is also called a gluteal lift, and it is intended to improve the shape of the buttocks by removing excess sagging skin and fat to create a lifted, toned appearance.

WHAT A BUTT LIFT CANNOT DO

A buttock lift is typically chosen when the skin has poor elasticity due to aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuation, or other factors. As such, it is only intended to remove excess skin and fat and is not designed to make the buttocks larger. However, the procedure generally improves irregular skin texture, such as dimpling.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR BBL IN MARYLAND?

Good candidates for buttock implant surgery or a Brazilian butt lift in Maryland are generally healthy overall and should be nonsmokers. These procedures are typically performed for those with loose soft tissue in the gluteal area but have realistic goals for the procedure. For BBL patients, it is important that they also have sufficient fat in donor areas to complete the procedure. Your candidacy can be determined after a consultation.

CHOOSING A PLASTIC SURGEON

When considering a body contouring procedure like butt implants or the Brazilian butt lift, it’s very important to carefully evaluate your plastic surgeon. At The Plastic Surgery Center in Baltimore, our experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Rosenberg:

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT DURING A CONSULTATION FOR BUTTOCK ENHANCEMENT?

At your consultation for buttock enhancement, you can expect to discuss your health history, including any medications you take, conditions you may have, prior surgeries, or allergies. Your surgeon will examine the treatment area and work to understand your cosmetic goals before explaining a recommended treatment plan and expected results. Finally, your surgeon may also take photographs if necessary.

WHAT QUESTIONS SHOULD I ASK MY PLASTIC SURGEON ABOUT BBL?

You may ask any questions that you have about the Brazilian butt lift during your consultation appointment at the Plastic Surgery Center of Maryland. Many patients find it helpful to write a list of questions to bring with them to their appointment. Some common questions about buttock enhancement include:

  • What kind of experience, certifications, and education do you have?
  • Where will my BBL or buttock enhancement be performed? Is the facility accredited?
  • Am I a good candidate for BBL? Why or why not?
  • What is the recovery period like after buttock enhancement?
  • What results can I reasonably expect?

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT DURING MY BBL RECOVERY?

After your BBL, you may have drains in place, and bandages will cover your incision sites. Patients commonly experience swelling, redness, bruising, and some discomfort after a BBL.

It’s important to wear compression garments, take prescribed medication, and care for drains or incision sites as directed during the recovery process. You will also be advised not to sit directly on your buttocks as you heal.

Dr. Rosenberg will monitor your healing during post-op appointments and will advise you when you can return to certain activities. Most patients return to work or school about 1-2 weeks after their BBL.
