Mini Brazilian Butt Lift in Danville

Mini Brazilian Butt Lift

Even with vigorous exercise, getting a sculpted and voluminous buttock can be nearly impossible without surgery. There has been an uptick in body contouring procedures over the past decade. The Mini BBL procedure is an extension of the well known Brazilian butt lift (BBL) procedure, which uses the patient’s own natural body fat to create a sculpted, youthful, and shapely hourglass contour to boost your confidence. It is very popular to create more shape and volume, to enhance your contours in fitted clothing or in your skinny jeans, and making it larger, firmer, and more proportionate to your physique or small isolated areas of sagging, dipping, or more slender women who would like a more curvaceous and attractive silhouette and derriere, but who may have limited amounts of fat. In our expert hands, Elite MD achieves outstanding and natural results using your own fat. A mini procedure may, for example, remove a small amount of fat from the lower back via liposuction, which can create a more attractive slope of the back, and then use that fat to make the buttocks more rounded and symmetrical.  Our thinner buttock lift patients agree that, with this plastic surgery innovation, they get a superior result done right in the office safely and effectively.

How is the mini BBL performed?

The mini BBL procedure is done right in the office under local anesthesia, which means you’ll be awake and very comfortable the entire time. Unwanted fat will be removed from other areas such as the abdomen thighs or trunk. These fat cells are then harvested, separated, and purified thus preserving undamaged cells for a successful transfer. This is done with a low pressure aspiration such that the fat cells stay viable. This extracted fat is handled gently, cleaned and set aside for re-injection. This harvest and re-injection process needs to be done carefully as this is what yields long lasting results. These undamaged purified fat cells are then re-injected into the area of interest along the backside area to create a natural, sculpted, and firm backside.

Step 1 – Local Anesthesia

Medications are administered for your comfort during the surgical procedure. Local anesthesia with tumescent anesthesia will be used.

Step 2 – Vaser Liposuction

Liposuction is performed through small, inconspicuous incisions. First, diluted local anesthesia is administered to reduce bleeding and trauma. Then a thin cannula is inserted through the incisions to loosen excess fat using a controlled back and forth motion combined with ultrasound technology. The dislodged fat is then suctioned out of the body using a surgical vacuum or syringe attached to the cannula. In general, your expert surgeon may liposuction up to three times the amount of fat than what will actually be injected into the buttocks.

Step 3 – Fat injection

The fat, tissue and blood that were removed through liposuction are then processed. The syringes are then connected to a special cannula. Your expert surgeon will use this cannula to add the fat to the buttocks through small injections all over your behind.

Step 4 – See the results

The results of mini BBL are immediately visible; however, you will not see your final results until a year after the surgery, as it takes a while for the fat to “take.” This procedure offers natural-looking and -feeling results, but the projection of the buttocks may decrease over time. Some of the initial volume you experience after your fat grafting procedure will fade as the fat is absorbed by your body (on the average patients will retain 60-80% of the transferred fat, in some cases more in others less). As you gain or lose weight, your results may change as the transferred fat can grow or shrink just as any other fat in your body.

How is the recovery?

You will be asked to avoid prolonged sitting for about two weeks as this can damage fat cells. You will also be encouraged to avoid sleeping on your back and instead sleep face down or on your side. When you do have to sit, you will have to use a pillow or cushion placed behind the legs (hamstring muscles) to help raise the buttocks, avoiding pressure onto the fat grafts. Though your results are immediate, some of the fat that leads to the initial shape after surgery will be reabsorbed by your body. Over time, your butt’s size and shape can continue to change due to aging and gravity. You’ll be able to retain your new look longer if you maintain your weight and keep a healthy lifestyle. Fat can behave like any other fat in your body. If you gain weight, the fat in your buttocks may grow. If you lose weight, you may lose some of the volume in the buttocks as the fat shrinks. The results of your mini BBL surgery will be long-lasting.

If you exercise your butt after an Elite MD Brazilian butt lift, will it harm the results?

It shouldn’t “harm” the results unless you loose weight from doing the exercises. Also, it depends on the “memory” of the fat. If the fat was harvested from the stomach, and your stomach fat has a tendency to loose weight quickly while doing exercises, the fat that was removed from your stomach and transferred into your buttocks will react in the same way. In general, it is advisable to wait to have the procedure until you are at? a stable weight.
