BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift)
Two locations to serve New York City & Greater New York (Tri-State area)
At SY Aesthetics, our doctors specialize in using your body's own fat to restore volume and enhance your natural curves. Through a liposuction procedure, we extract fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or back and inject it into areas where you desire more fullness, such as the buttocks. Using your own fat eliminates the risk of allergic reactions and ensures a natural look and feel.
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), also known as fat transfer to the buttocks, uses your own fat to enhance the shape and volume of your buttocks.
Why choose a Brazilian Butt Lift?
- Natural Results: Using your own fat eliminates the risk of allergic reactions and provides a natural look.
- Customizable: Each BBL procedure is customized to meet your unique aesthetic goals, whether for the buttocks or other areas like facial contours.
- Safe Alternative: A BBL is a safer alternative to buttock implants, which have higher rates of infection and complications.
- Long-lasting: While some fat will naturally be absorbed by the body over time, touch-ups can help maintain your results for years.
- Popular and Effective: Our BBL is a popular choice, especially among our Latina patients, and is often combined with tummy tuck and liposuction for comprehensive body reshaping and contouring.
Tailored to your aesthetic goals
Every patient has unique aesthetic goals. Our doctors customize each fat grafting procedure to meet your specific desires, whether it's to enhance the buttocks, improve facial contours, or achieve a more balanced figure. This two-stage procedure involves harvesting fat and then injecting it, often in conjunction with other body reshaping procedures or as a stand-alone enhancement.
The art of body contouring
We do not use buttocks implants, as they have a fairly high rate of infection and removal due to discomfort sitting and walking, and come in limited sizes and contours that make creating a full, round buttock nearly impossible.
Brazilian Butt Lift, Fat Transfer to the buttocks, or gluteal augmentation are all terms that are used for using your own body’s fat to enhance the buttocks. I feel it is the safest option, creates the most natural results, and has the lowest complication rate of any of the techniques. If you have extra fat in another part of the body that you would like to remove, it is a “win-win”. We perform fat transfer to the buttocks over 100 times a year, and the satisfaction rate is extremely high.
