    Why Should I Get a Brazilian Butt Lift in NYC?

    A Brazilian butt lift, also referred to by some as a BBL — or if you want to get technical, gluteal fat grafting — is a cosmetic fat transfer surgical procedure that gives you a larger, shapelier bottom. A BBL and awake BBL solves two problems at once, taking unwanted fat from other parts of your body and repurposing it to create a fuller butt. Whether you’re preparing for a wedding, want to look good in your vacation pics or want to up your Instagram game, a BBL gives you a bigger bottom to get you noticed.

    Dr. David Shokrian is Manhattan’s premiere Brazilian butt lift specialist. He works with you to craft a custom awake BBL that’s designed to accentuate your assets and keep your booty in line with the rest of your body. New York City chooses Millennial Plastic Surgery for the best BBL in NYC. If you know, you know.

    How Does a Brazilian Butt Lift Work?

    Despite its name, a Brazilian butt lift is not technically a butt lift surgery, which instead treats saggy skin around the buttocks. A Brazilian butt lift surgery takes fat from other parts of your body and relocates it to your buttocks. The parts of your body that provide the source of the added fat depends on your desired figure, as well as where you have fat to spare.

    A Brazilian butt lift surgery is a two-step process involving:

    • Liposuction procedure. First, Dr. Shokrian performs liposuction to take excess fat from different parts of your body. The most common areas for BBL fat removal are your love handles, upper and lower abdomen, thighs, hips or back.
    • Fat grafting. Once enough fat has been removed via liposuction, Dr. Shokrian transfers the fat to your buttocks through injections. Your fat is injected into several points in your bum to build up volume. The exact injection points are specially chosen to best amplify the size, shape and symmetry of your desired bottom.

    Complications from Brazilian butt lifts are rare. When the surgery was first introduced, some patients experienced fat embolism — because the fat was accidentally injected into the bloodstream, where it clogged major blood vessels. Since then, the medical community has developed new techniques that greatly decreased the risk of fat embolism. There’s now even a BBL Task Force in place specifically to keep you safe.

    Facts About BBL Surgery

    • International BBL safety task force: After the alarming 1 in 3,000 statistic emerged, ASPS partnered with global plastic surgery organizations to create an international task force to address safety concerns. The task force found a rise in complications, including fat embolism, where fat enters the venous system, potentially causing life-threatening issues.
      Recent surveys show that many surgeons are now changing their techniques based on the task force’s recommendations. This has reduced the mortality rate to about 1 in 15,000, on par with tummy tuck procedures. The modified approach involves avoiding fat injection into the muscle, which poses a risk to large blood vessels. Instead, surgeons inject fat tissue above the gluteal muscle, creating a safer Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedure. Thanks to the task force’s work, BBLs have become much safer.
    • The range of ideal BBL candidates is quite limited: Since BBL procedure can potentially lead to more risks than most other plastic surgery procedures, it is crucial to prioritize thorough patient selection. An optimal candidate is an individual who possesses realistic expectations regarding the outcome, maintains a reasonably close proximity to their desired body weight, enjoys good overall health, and refrains from smoking.
    • Final BBL results will evolve: The majority of patients will notice an immediate enhancement in their body’s contours, both in the areas treated with liposuction and those where fat grafting was performed. Many individuals describe the second phase of recovery as a period when the transplanted fat stabilizes, while the final cosmetic outcomes of liposuction continue to develop. By the third month, the immediate risk of fat loss in the buttock area diminishes, and the size and shape of the region will give a fairly accurate indication of the final outcome. Over months three to six, the contours should continue to refine, and the desired curves should become more pronounced.

    What Does Brazilian Butt Lift Recovery Look Like?

    Millennial Plastic Surgery prioritizes your comfort at every step of your Brazilian butt lift procedure in NYC. While the procedure itself is painless thanks to anesthesia, mild pain and swelling may persist after plastic surgery for buttocks. Any temporary side effects are easily manageable. During awake BBL or traditional BBL recovery, you can expect to:

    Get your beauty sleep and drink fluids.

    For the first 24 hours after your BBL surgery in NYC, focus on getting plenty of rest. Sleep in the position that you find most comfortable. Avoid dehydration by drinking plenty of water and other fluids.

    Take medication as needed.

    Some soreness is normal after a BBL. For relief, take prescription pain medication or acetaminophen as directed by your doctor.

    Keep ice packs handy.

    If you feel swelling, use ice packs for relief, but only during the first 24 hours after your procedure.

    Enjoy a post-operative massage

    Massaging affected areas helps alleviate temporary bruising and swelling. Consider a lymphatic drainage massage.

    Practice basic first aid.

    You may need to change out the bandages covering your incision or injection sites. Seeing a substantial amount of fluid drain from these puncture sites is common in the first one to two days following your BBL.

    Hit pause on your exercise routine.

    Wait a week after your BBL to resume vigorous exercise. After the first day, be as active as possible and avoid lying in bed or on the couch all day.

    Don’t smoke.

    Nicotine increases the risk that complications will arise after Brazilian butt lift surgery. Avoid nicotine in all forms for at least two weeks before and two weeks after your procedure.

    Every day is a self-care day during BBL recovery. Grab your comfiest slippers and focus on taking care of yourself. Soon, you’ll be ready to shake your new booty.
