What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Also known as a BBL, or Fat Transfer to Buttocks, a Brazilian Butt Lift is a surgical procedure which increases the size of the buttocks, resulting in a lifted and rounded appearance.

BBL surgery involves using Liposuction to remove excess fat from various areas of the body, before it is processed and injected into the buttocks. Although Liposuction can be used on any area of the body where there is enough fat to extract, common treatment areas for BBL include:

• Upper and lower abdomen (stomach Liposuction)
• Flanks and hips
• Back
• Thighs

Extracting fat from these areas results in a slimmer waist with rounder, more defined hips and thighs, creating a desirable hourglass shape to the body. For slimmer patients, Skinny BBL may be a suitable procedure to achieve similar results, that are flattering on a smaller frame.

BBL price plays an important part when considering this procedure. It is crucial to understand what is included in each surgical package you are researching, to ensure you receive the highest quality care and outcomes.

Why Should You Choose to Have a BBL in the UK? 

In recent years, BBL has been an increasingly popular surgery to undergo outside of the UK. Although low BBL Turkey cost may be appealing, Cadogan Clinic will always advise against seeking surgery abroad. Outside the UK, Brazilian Butt Lift surgery can be very high risk, and complications can lead to serious issues, which have previously been reported in the media.

• Clinics outside of the UK may not include comprehensive aftercare, making it difficult to ask any questions following your surgery
• It may not be possible to verify a surgeon’s experience performing BBL surgery or qualifications
• Once you have returned to the UK, it may be challenging to access post-operative care
• If complications do arise following BBL in another country, you may not be able to raise a complaint with the clinic, or the medical regulators of the country where you had surgery

In the UK, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons have published guidelines advising on best practices for BBL procedures. A key point from the guidance is that fat should only be injected under the skin, and remain above the muscle – known as Superficial Gluteal Lipofilling. In other countries, some surgeons will inject the fat below the muscle, which is higher risk and can result in complications such as embolism, which sadly can be fatal. At Cadogan Clinic, our surgeons only perform BBL using Superficial Gluteal Lipofilling, and never inject fat under the muscle.
