It's no secret that a curvy, round backside is one of the hottest looks today. Everyone from Hollywood stars to musicians to social media influencers seems to be showing off a more shapely rear end, leading to a surge in the popularity of butt-plumping procedures, such as gluteal implants and Brazilian butt lift. The award-winning team of plastic surgeons at Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery is thrilled to be able to help patients achieve the stunning, sexy look they've always wanted through the most innovative and effective cosmetic procedures available in Northern Virginia. Learn more about one of the most exciting butt augmentation options here, the Brazilian butt lift, and find out what makes it so unique compared to other procedures.
If you're like most men and women, building shape and volume in your glutes is extremely difficult – if not impossible – with traditional diet and exercise alone. In fact, many people spend countless hours in the gym each week without ever seeing their ideal results. If you are consistently and appropriately working out but are still struggling to gain volume and shape in your rear end, it may be due to:
This can certainly be discouraging, but cosmetic surgery, fortunately, offers men and women the opportunity to still achieve their desired look. Butt implants and Brazilian butt lift are two commonly performed procedures for butt augmentation.
Butt implants, also known as glute implants, are synthetic silicone implants that are surgically inserted into the buttocks to produce a larger, shapelier look. While the results of butt augmentation with implants can be striking, many patients are interested in a more natural alternative that does not require the use of foreign bodies. For these patients, Austin-Weston is proud to offer the innovative and highly effective Brazilian butt lift procedure in Northern Virginia.
Commonly referred to as BBL, a Brazilian butt lift is a wildly popular cosmetic fat transfer procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and other characteristics of the butt without the need for implants. During BBL surgery, the surgeon harvests a patient's own fat from another area of the body using liposuction, purifies it, and strategically injects it into the buttocks, sculpting a gorgeous new shape. Because BBL involves only liposuction and fat transfer to the buttocks, no synthetic foreign bodies or implants are needed, making this an ideal option for patients who prefer a more natural approach. As an added benefit of BBL surgery, patients often enjoy a trimmer contour in the area where liposuction was performed, which can further accentuate their newly augmented butt.
Brazilian butt lift is not the same as a traditional lift surgery. In breast lift surgery, for example, excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is tightened to physically reposition the breast. BBL, on the other hand, does not involve skin removal and is designed primarily to volumize and reshape the butt, rather than lift it. However, when performed properly by an expert plastic surgeon, many patients do enjoy a more lifted, perkier butt after BBL due to the added volume and the strategic distribution of fat.
Like breast implants, glute implants are not meant to last for a lifetime. At some point, replacement, revision, or removal of butt implants will likely be required. However, fat transfer with Brazilian butt lift can last for many, many years, if not indefinitely. The most critical thing patients can do to sustain and prolong the results of their BBL is to avoid future weight fluctuations. The fat cells that are transferred during BBL can swell and shrink with weight gain or weight loss, just like fat cells anywhere in the body, which can compromise or even reverse the outcome of a BBL. Furthermore, patients should keep in mind that cosmetic surgery cannot stop the aging process, and patients may experience natural changes in the shape and size of their butt over time.
The best way to determine whether or not BBL is right for you is to be evaluated by an experienced, plastic surgeon who is highly familiar with the procedure. Ideal candidates for BBL should be:
