Brazilian Butt Lift

Most commonly referred to as a Brazilian Butt-lift—in honor of gorgeously endowed South American women—the fat transfer for a curvy, taut Brazilian buttocks is the perfect minimally invasive surgery for quick, natural results.

A fat transfer to the buttocks can be performed by itself or during other body contouring procedures. In either case, Dr. Shapiro will use your own fat tissue taken from other places in your body, often the abdomen or other troublesome places that could use some reducing. The fat is injected above, below, and into the gluteal muscles for a smooth, curved look that improves the tightness of the skin around the buttocks, lifting away any wrinkles or sagging that has occurred, while providing a full, attractive rear. The Brazilian buttocks lift procedure reveals a very natural external appearance, attractive both in and out of clothing. Scars are very limited, often only to the crease where the butt meet the thighs, and sometimes at the top of the gluteal crease at the very bottom of the back, depending on what procedures are being performed.

Why fat transfer instead of implants?
A fat transfer enhancement to the buttocks is preferred over implants for several good reasons. Implants are usually made of silicone and when they are placed in the buttocks, they can shift position, seldom become infected or uncomfortable, and need to be removed. Using your own fat to give you the Brazilian buttocks look will not only look more natural, it will feel more natural. There are also fewer cases of fat transfer complications than in cases of implants. Plus, the Brazilian buttocks lift is much less invasive than an implantation technique, which will leave a much larger scar than the few millimeter cannula would in a fat transfer procedure.
