What is Butt lift surgery?
A butt lift surgery is a surgical cosmetic procedure for aesthetically enhancing your buttocks by improving their size, shape, and firmness. The surgery effectively addresses the loss of buttock volume and the development of excessive skin. If you don’t gain weight, the results of butt lift are typically permanent.
How does a buttock lift surgery work?
During the surgery, your doctor will make incisions in the lower buttock area to remove excess skin and fat from the lower back, hip, and thigh area. After this, they will lift, tighten, and reshape the remaining skin and tissues to give the buttock a firmer look. The incisions are small and made in areas like the lower back and lower parts of the buttocks to minimize the visibility of scars after the procedure. As butt lifting is an invasive surgical procedure, there is also a noticeable recovery period of 4-6 weeks.
What are the benefits of a butt lift?
- Removal of the excess skin from your buttocks
- Improved and more defined shape of your bum
- Customizable surgery to target different body types and severities of concerns
- Typically permanent results, which won’t change unless you gain or lose significant weight
FAQ
What’s the difference between BBL and a butt lift?
The main difference between procedures is that traditional buttock lift surgery focuses on reshaping and firming the buttocks and removing the excess skin, for example in the case of significant weight loss. At the same time, Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) aims to enhance the size of the buttocks through fat transfer from other areas of your body. Both procedures are effective and give long-lasting results, but target two different concerns.
How Long will it take to see results from butt lift?
You will see some results immediately after the surgery. However, at the time, the buttocks will still be swollen and bruised. Once the bruising and swelling gradually subside and you recover, you can expect to see the final results 4-6 weeks after the procedure.
How long does a bum lift surgery last?
The average duration of a butt lift surgery is between 2-4 hours, which can vary depending on your personal factors like the amount of skin and tissue to be removed. If you don’t gain or lose significant amounts of weight, the results of a butt lift surgery can potentially be permanent.
