What to expect after Brazilian butt lift surgery in Beverly Hills, CA

Posted By: Dr. Dennis Dass | Published On: May 1, 2019 | Brazilian ButtLift
Gaining popularity in recent years, Brazilian butt lift surgery helps patients achieve a shapelier body with curves or a more rounded buttocks. The desired figure is produced using the body’s own fat and slimming down areas of excess fat. The end result is a more balanced or curvaceous body. The improved shape can boost confidence or simply help clothes fit better. In Beverly Hills, Dr. Dennis Dass explains what to expect after Brazilian butt lift surgery.

Reasons for a Brazilian butt lift surgery

A Brazilian butt lift uses fat that comes from areas of the body with excess such as the abdomen or thighs and then implants the same fat into the buttocks. By using the body’s own fat, a slimmer waist is produced which helps accentuate the roundness of the buttocks. This is one reason the procedure has risen in popularity. Fat is removed using liposuction. The fat is spun and processed to obtain pure fat before it is reinjected into targeted areas of the butt. Additional liposuction can be done around the buttocks to improve appearance. The result is a perkier, youthful butt and a more sensual body profile. Brazilian butt lift procedures are ideal for patients who wish to alter the size or shape of their butts and have excess fat elsewhere on the body to use for the transfer. The procedure is designed to:
  • Add volume
  • Create a more rounded or curvaceous bottom
  • Balance out or create an hourglass figure
  • Produce a lifted appearance

What to expect after Brazilian butt lift surgery

Deciding to have any cosmetic procedure comes with considerations. Patients should make sure they choose an experienced, certified surgeon who is skilled at sculpting the body to achieve the desired result. It is important to have realistic expectations for the procedure, side effects, and the outcome. Dr. Dass performs surgeries in an accredited surgical facility to maintain the highest safety standards. A Brazilian butt lift surgery is less invasive than a butt augmentation using implants. Nothing foreign is introduced as the procedure makes use of the patient’s own fat. The incisions are smaller, and results can usually be seen after three or four weeks. With a Brazilian butt lift surgery, there are no sutures or drains to be removed. A compression garment should be worn for several weeks to ensure the areas where fat was harvested heal properly. This helps ease discomfort and minimizes swelling. The garment often has the buttocks cut out, so no extra pressure is put on the transferred fat cells before they have a chance to solidify.
Beverly Hills, Dr. Dennis Dass explains what to expect after Brazilian butt lift surgery.
Immediately after Brazilian butt lift procedures, patients can expect bruising and swelling in the areas where liposuction was performed. Any pain or discomfort can be managed with pain relievers. Excess fluid may drain from the incisions. Draining should subside within a few days. Every patient heals differently. Most patients are up and walking within a day or two of surgery. Moving around can help the body recover. On average, the recovery period is about two weeks. During the recovery period, patients are not to put pressure on their buttocks. This means no sitting or lying on their backs. Patients should use a donut or cushion if they must sit. Movements such as bending over may be difficult for the body to stretch into that position. Soreness is to be expected but the discomfort will subside and improve as the body heals. Prior to surgery, try to rearrange your belongings to accessible positions or have someone assist you as you recover. During the first few weeks, the transferred fat cells will not have blood supply to them. Sitting directly on the buttocks may affect blood circulation destroying the transferred cells and giving unsatisfactory results. It is not expected for all of the cells to survive the transfer. However, those that do survive will be enough to enhance the buttocks. Adhering to the surgeon’s post care instructions will aid in the healing process and reduce complications. Following your procedure, you will notice results immediately. Some of the initial volume may fade as the body absorbs some of the fat. On average, patients retain 60-80% of the transferred fat. The result is a perkier, more youthful buttocks. Let Dr. Dennis Dass help you achieve look you desire. Call (855) 496-4646.

Highly recommend! wouldn't go to anyone else. 6 Months post BBL and I seem to LOVE my body more by the day! Dr. Dass truly did an amazing job shaping my body. I'm very petite and was concerned I wouldn't have enough fat to transfer, however Dr. Dass exceeded my expectations. I'm 5'2 range from 123-128 lbs He gave me the curves I dreamed of! His staff was very helpful, answered every question I had and took well care of me during the whole procedure. The recovery went smooth, did everything he instructed me to do and was back at work in 8 days! Highly recommend! wouldn't go to anyone else. Right off the bat you can tell how professional and knowledgeable he is.

My truSculptflex experience was incredible. My truSculptflex experience was incredible. I did as many areas as possible; quads, abs, obliques, hamstrings, buttocks. I continued to see a difference in both fat loss around the muscles and muscles increasing in size. The skin was tighter and firmer around treated areas too. 4 treatments and the results continued to improve 3 months later! Life Changing!! I’m blown away by this technology and would recommend DrDass and his office for the most effective, up to date technology in all of the services he offers. He takes pride on being young, on the cutting edge of the best and most effective treatments/surgeries/procedures to attain to your goals. Whatever they may be!

Dr. Dass and his amazing team made me feel so comfortable and safe. I couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision of choosing Dr. Dass. I was afraid of going through this journey but Dr. Dass and his amazing team made me feel so comfortable and safe. From the consultation leading up to the day of the procedure, everyone made sure to answer any questions I had and throughly walked me through what was to be expected. I truly appreciate the entire team and Dr. Dass. My results are incredible and I did not have a single complication. When choosing your doctor please do not let the cost be the deciding factor. This is an investment for yourself and it is important to remember your health comes before all else.

I just have to say thanks to him I had my BBL with Dr. Dass and was the best decision that I made. He did exactly what I wanted and my recovery was very fast and no painful at all. I was a bit worried because I live in another state and needed to travel, but it took a short time for me to go back to my normal life. I just have to say thanks to him..
