About Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian butt lift is notably one of the fastest growing cosmetic surgeries in the U.S. and continues to be in widespread demand among both women and men. This surgery achieves shapelier and more defined buttocks without having to use an implant. It uses your own fat. Weight fluctuations, the aging process, in addition to hereditary characteristics can be the cause of a flat rear end. In today's times, a fuller, shapelier rear end is wanted more than a flat behind. A Brazilian butt lift adds volume to the buttocks to create a youthful, uplifted look. This is achieved through a careful and precise fat transfer process, which applies liposuction to remove fat from one area of your body and then injects the fat into the upper section of your buttocks. It takes an artistic eye to achieve this procedure and with years of advanced training and experience, Dallas, TX board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Naveen Setty can produce natural-looking, beautiful results at Setty Plastics & Aesthetics.
Ideal Candidates
The right candidates for the cosmetic enhancement known as a Brazilian butt lift will be assessed to make sure he or she are able to undergo this surgery. The first consideration is evaluating the amount of fat in certain areas to liposuction for the removal, grafting, and transfer process. If you are a lighter body weight or exhibit insufficient fat to extract and purify, you might not be a candidate for this surgery. Also, it is necessary to have good skin laxity. If you have sagging skin, you may need a butt lift with surgery. If you maintain a healthy weight, have unwanted fat to extract, and prefer not to use a synthetic implant, this enhancement surgery may be an ideal choice for you.

Surgical Technique
In most cases, anesthesia is used for a Brazilian butt lift surgery. It is an outpatient treatment and generally takes approximately 2 – 3 hours. This is dependent upon the amount of fat that is being extracted and transplanted. A form of liposuction will be used first to harvest fat from specific areas of the body including the hips, abdomen, lower back, and thighs. Small incisions are made in the marked areas and tumescent fluid is injected through the incisions. A cannula is inserted to break up the fat cells and gently suction them out. With absorbable sutures, Dr. Setty will close each harvesting site.
The extracted fat is purified through a meticulous process that filters out and uses only thriving cells. Dead and damaged fat cells are typically removed. The purification process also involves taking out nonessential fluids so that Dr. Setty is utilizing the highest quality fat possible. He allows the fat to separate by gravity. Then, he injects the fat using a cannula and a roller pump. The site is massaged to ensure proper contour and fat placement to make sure the surface of the buttocks appears smooth. This phase is repeated numerous times until the desired shape has been attained.
What to Expect
After a Brazilian butt lift, you will be monitored then sent home to rest. Remember there are separate sections on the body that need recovery time — both the areas where the fat was extracted and the augmented area. In both surgical sites, there will be bruising. It is important to not place a lot of weight on the rear end for approximately two weeks after surgery. After the swelling has subsided, the actual results are noticeable, but in the majority of cases, results are seen in around 4 – 6 weeks. The buttocks will appear round and shapely. In addition, the areas that had liposuction may make the result even more beautiful if performed on the lower back or flanks.
