Butt enhancement procedures have continued to be popular in the last few years. Studies show a 20% increase in interest in Brazilian butt lifts in the recent past. The surgery has emerged as one of the most popular cosmetic procedures to enhance the butt without implants. Butt implants, or gluteal implants, are an option to enhance the size and shape of the backside.
Understanding BBL
A BBL, or Brazilian Butt Lift, is a surgical procedure that helps to enhance the backside without the use of silicone implants. It involves the use of liposuction and fat transfer. During the procedure, surgeons extract excess fat from donor areas using liposuction.
Popular areas for extraction are the abdomen, back, flanks, and thighs. The fat is processed and purified to get the best quality for transfer. Surgeons inject the fat strategically into specific areas to enhance the butt’s shape, volume, and overall symmetry. They sculpt and contour the area to achieve the desired outcome.
Understanding Butt Implants
Butt implants involve the use of silicone to enhance the buttocks. Manufacturers design the solid silicone material to mimic the appearance and feel of natural tissue. The procedure involves the surgical insertion of the implants into the backside.
Surgeons create incisions in the butt crease where they can be concealed. The implants are positioned above or within the gluteal muscle to create the desired augmentation. The implants provide a permanent augmentation solution for patients who seek a more pronounced appearance.
Benefits of BBL
There are several reasons to choose the BBL procedure:
It is an effective option to enhance butt volume and shape. It helps to create a more lifted, rounded, and contoured appearance.
The results are more realistic and natural in appearance as the transferred fat blends easily with surrounding tissues.
Liposuction helps to harvest excess fat from other body areas, creating a more contoured overall appearance. Contouring and reshaping the donor areas creates balance.
It offers customizable options. During BBL, the surgeon can sculpt and shape the butt precisely according to the individual’s anatomy and desired outcome.
A BBL can provide long-lasting results. It can create permanent augmentation that patients can enjoy for years.
Using the patient’s fat reduces the risk of allergic reactions and other complications.
A BBL has the dual benefits of adding volume and shape to the butt while reducing fat in unwanted areas.
Benefits of Butt Implants
Some people choose implants to enhance their backside. There are several benefits of butt implants:
Increased butt volume and shape: Implants can create a more voluminous appearance.
Predictable results: Implants come in various shapes and sizes, ensuring predictability.
Long-lasting results: Implants can last years and, in many cases, can be permanent.
Implants are ideal for individuals with minimal fat in other areas of the body.
Consider your body type and desired results when choosing the best augmentation option. A BBL is less risky and more affordable than butt implants. It takes longer to recover from an implant procedure. Implants often shift, which necessitates additional surgery. Talk to the surgeon about the pros and cons of each procedure.
