You have always admired your friend’s full derriere and would give anything to have the same look on your backside. Thanks to Brazillian Butt Lift, it is now possible for you to sidestep that genetic frustration. A BBL surgery, or gluteal augmentation, can help reshape your outer thighs and buttocks for a rounded and voluptuous look. This procedure is two-fold; liposuction to harvest the fat and injection of the processed fat into your buttocks.

What to Expect During a Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure
Dr. Jason Leedy and his team at Cleveland Plastic Surgery Institute are aware that no two patients are the same and are meticulous during each procedure. Your doctor carefully handles the grafted fat to ensure its survival as it is distributed through injections according to carefully planned patterns.
The team accurately records the volume of fats being sanctioned from your body before antibodies can be added. After processing, the fat is then injected to help lift your butt. During surgery, your doctor will adjust your position using padding to ensure you get a symmetrical and natural-looking butt.
Before surgery, Dr. Jason Leedy will carefully mark the area where augmentation is to be performed using 3D imaging. General anesthesia will be used during a Brazilian Butt Lift on an outpatient basis or if needed, an overnight stay. Your doctor will monitor your vitals to guarantee patient safety. Fat is usually removed from the flank and lower back region to cause the narrowing of the waistline and enhancing the shape and projection of your buttocks. Fat is removed using a cannula. Fat is processed after it has been harvested before the injections can be performed. Dr. Jason Leedy pays close attention to the amount of injection to be administered and the exact location to obtain symmetrical results that have a natural look.
What to Expect After Surgery
Your doctor will place an elastic garment on the area where surgery has been performed to provide support. Avoid applying pressure on the area where grafting has been done for two to four weeks after surgery. You will have to avoid sitting down for some time to help the injected area heal. Swelling is expected to happen after surgery but will subside several weeks after your treatment.
You can resume regular physical activities and exercise after one or two months. Your doctor will advise if it is safe for you to resume exercise during your after-surgery consultations. Observe your weight after surgery to enhance your looks.
