Enhance Your Curves Naturally

If you’ve ever felt that your butt lacks fullness or desired shape, a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) can offer a natural solution. Using your fat to enhance the contour of your buttocks creates a fuller, more lifted appearance while simultaneously slimming other areas of your body. At Fulcrum Aesthetics, led by Dr. David Hill and nurse practitioner Brittony Croasdell, we specialize in body contouring procedures like the Brazilian Buttock Lift, using advanced techniques to sculpt the body and create a balanced, natural-looking result. Whether you want a subtle enhancement or more dramatic curves, our team is here to help you achieve your ideal shape.

What Is a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL)?

A Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the shape and fullness of the buttocks using fat transferred from other areas of your body. Excess fat is harvested from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks during the procedure through liposuction. The fat is then purified and strategically injected into the buttocks to create a more contoured and lifted appearance. This procedure enhances the buttocks and slims and shapes the donor areas, resulting in a more balanced, aesthetically pleasing silhouette. The Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL)  is ideal for those seeking a natural enhancement without implants.

The Benefits of a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL)

A Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) at Fulcrum Aesthetics in Chicago offers multiple advantages for individuals looking to enhance their curves while achieving a natural result. The benefits include the following:

  • Natural-Looking Enhancement: The main benefit of a BBL is the use of your fat to create fuller, more contoured buttocks without the need for implants.
  • Dual Contouring Effects: Not only does the BBL enhance your buttocks, but the liposuction used to harvest fat also slims areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, improving your overall silhouette.
  • Minimally Invasive with Long-Lasting Results: A BBL avoids using foreign materials and can offer long-lasting, natural results with minimal scarring.
  • Increased Confidence: Many patients experience a significant boost in self-esteem after achieving the curves they’ve always desired.

Is a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) Right for Me?

A Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) may be ideal if you want to enhance the shape and volume of your buttocks while slimming other areas of your body. This procedure is best suited for individuals with sufficient fat in areas like the abdomen, thighs, or flanks to harvest for the transfer. Candidates should be in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and be looking for a natural way to achieve fuller, more contoured buttocks without implants.

Are you considering a Brazilian Buttock Lift? If so, Fulcrum Aesthetics can guide you through the process. During your consultation, we’ll assess your body shape, discuss your goals, and determine whether this procedure best fits your needs. We’ll also walk you through the process so you can make an informed decision.

What to Expect: The Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) Process

The Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) at Fulcrum Aesthetics is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes about two to four hours, depending on the extent of fat removal and transfer. The process begins with liposuction to remove excess fat from donor areas, such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. This fat is then purified to ensure only healthy fat cells are used. Next, the purified fat is carefully injected into specific areas to create the desired shape and volume. Dr. Hill and the team will strategically place the fat to ensure a smooth, contoured result that complements your natural curves. Once the injections are complete, small incisions made for liposuction are closed, and you will be placed in a compression garment to support your recovery.

Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) Recovery & Results

Recovery from a Brazilian Buttock Lift (BBL) typically involves some downtime. Most patients need to avoid sitting directly on their buttocks for about two weeks. You will be advised to use a special pillow or lie on your side or stomach to protect the newly transferred fat. Swelling and bruising are common in liposuction and buttock areas, but these will gradually subside over the next few weeks.

Most patients can return to light activities within 10 to 14 days, but more strenuous activities, including exercise, should be avoided for four to six weeks. The final results will become more visible as swelling decreases, typically within three to six months. At this point, the successfully integrated fat will provide long-lasting, natural enhancement. Follow-up appointments will help ensure that your recovery is progressing well and that you are satisfied with your results.
