BBL Surgery: What Are The Different Types Of Butt Lifts
PAGE
By PAGE Editor
Butt lift, or butt augmentation, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that enhances the appearance of your posterior. The procedure involves fat transfer from one part of the body to another. Under this surgery, surgeons use the patient's own fat for this type of procedure. There are three types of butt lifts; Butt lifts, Butt implants, and Brazilian butt lift.
Butt Lift
The butt lift is a procedure that removes excess skin and fat from your buttocks to give them a firm, lifted, and youthful appearance. It’s usually performed on people with loose skin in the area due to significant weight loss.
When a lot of weight is lost all at once, the skin doesn’t have time to shrink down to your new size. This can cause sagging and excess tissue in many places on your body, including your buttocks.
A butt lift can be performed on its own or combined with other procedures such as an abdominoplasty or upper arm lift to treat other areas of the body that have loose skin.
Butt Implants
Butt implants are composed of a solid silicone material. There are many different types and sizes of implants, but they all have the same basic design. The implants are shaped like teardrops, with the narrow end pointing upward toward your lower back, and the wider end pointing down to your buttocks.
The implants are inserted through an incision in the crease at the top of your buttocks. This is where your buttocks meet your upper thigh. Your surgeon will make a pocket for each implant under the gluteus maximus muscles. He or she will then place the implant into this pocket.
Brazilian Butt Lift
The Brazilian butt lift procedure is a combination of liposuction and fat grafting. The Brazilian butt lift by Dr. Arroyo procedure can be performed under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's preference.
The surgeon first makes small incisions in the areas with excess fat, such as the thighs, hips, love handles, or lower back. A cannula (a thin tube) is inserted and used to suction out the excess fat which is later purified for reinjection into the buttocks.
The cannula will be moved back and forth throughout the targeted area to suction out excess fat cells, sculpting a new contour. Typically, the patients' fat is suctioned from the sides of their hips or their lower back and then transferred to their buttocks by injection.
Buttock lift procedures
Butt lifts include a variety of techniques that can be used to lift the buttocks and thighs. Butt lifts are performed to remove excess skin and fat from areas below the beltline.
Thigh lift — The goal of thigh lift surgery is to improve the appearance of the upper legs by removing excess skin, tightening loose skin, and smoothing dimpled skin. Thigh lift surgery may be performed alone or in combination with other body contouring procedures such as liposuction, butt lift, and a tummy tuck.
Butt enhancement — Fat transfer, also called autologous fat grafting, involves extracting fat from one part of your body, purifying it, and injecting it into your buttocks. You may have heard this procedure called a Brazilian butt lift.
Final Words
A butt lift, also known as gluteoplasty, is a procedure that can reshape and enhance the natural curvature and contour of the hips and buttocks, creating a firmer, sleeker look. The surgery can be done either with an open approach or via a smaller incision with a hidden scar on the lower back called the "endoscopic method." It's best to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in aesthetic and restorative plastic surgery. Taking the time to find the right doctor to perform your procedure is especially important when it comes to cosmetic surgery.
