Do I have to go under full anesthesia for this surgery, and is the procedure risky?
Dr. Schulman prefers to perform BBLs with patients under general anesthesia. He feels that this is the best way to get an ideal cosmetic result and keep you comfortable while doing it. During the surgery, you will be continuously monitored by a board certified anesthesiologist. Like with any surgery, there are risks. The most serious risk associated with a lift Brazilian butt procedure is the injection of fat into a blood vessel. This is a fat embolism and can be fatal. Dr. Schulman uses techniques that minimize this risk fat embolism, including specialized injection cannulas and specific injection techniques such as not injecting fat into the buttock muscle. Dr. Schulman has worked closely with the plastic surgery societies to help create safety guidelines and he has been an invited speaker on topics such as BBL technique and safety.
What’s the BBL recovery time?
BBL Recovery patients need to take about 10 days off work or school, but individual cases may vary. For instance, BBL Recovery patients who had a great deal of liposuction will probably experience a longer recovery due to the pain and bruising from higher volume liposuction.
Dr. Schulman and our staff will advise you on the specific steps you need to take to ensure a good recovery. Remember that it can take several months to see the final results of your procedure since you will be swollen from the liposuction and the fat cells need time to “take hold” in their new location. Final results could take up to a year, but you won’t be out of commission that long.
What are the possible BBL side effects?
The most common butt lift Brazilian side effects include bruising, swelling, lumps, and asymmetry, but these are usually temporary and subtle. Dr. Schulman’s SCOOP LiftⓇ procedure is designed to transplant only the healthiest fat cells, but it’s not uncommon for transplanted cells to die, which is known as fat necrosis. This can create hard lumps in the transplant areas, but this is not common and lumps are usually small and not visible after the procedure.
What happens if I gain weight or become pregnant after a BBL?
Weight gain, including from pregnancy, may alter your results because the transplanted fat will act like regular fat and grow with weight gain.
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift 360 Lipo?
A Brazilian Butt Lift 360 Lipo is a cosmetic surgical procedure that involves using liposuction to remove unwanted fat from multiple areas of the body, such as the abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs, and then transferring that fat to the buttocks to enhance their size and shape.
