Many celebrities have inspired cosmetic surgeries such as the Brazilian Butt Lift or buttock augmentation. The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure allows you to have stubborn fat removed from unwanted areas and transferred to areas that could benefit from the added volume such as the buttocks and hips.
The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure generally has an easy recovery, depending on the extent of the liposuction performed to harvest the fat. Recovery from liposuction and the Brazilian buttock is usually 1-2 weeks.
Patients may experience bruising and tenderness in the areas where lipo was performed, with very little pain on the actual buttocks. (German Newall, MD, Houston Plastic Surgeon)
The Brazilian butt lift has very good results in most women, because it has a double effect, first, we sculpt the female body with liposuction and second, increase the fat from buttocks.
Always achieves a significant improvement, but the result will be different in every patient, depending on its shape before surgery (Walkiris Robles, MD, Dominican Republic Plastic Surgeon)
To get the “Kim Kardashian” buttocks
If you have fat you would like removed from either your lower back, flanks, or saddle bags then a Brazilian Butt Lift would be an ideal procedure to enlarge your buttock area.
If your doctor believes you do not have enough fat to be liposuctioned, then buttock implants could be an alternative to achieving your “Kim Kardashian” buttocks. (Siamak Agha, MD, PhD, FACS, Orange County Plastic Surgeon)
You cannot get Kim’s butt. Your butt can be sculpted and fat grafted to give a fuller and more aesthetic look. I recommend talking to a board certified plastic surgeon about alternatives for you to get a better butt for your body and then go ahead and admire Kim’s butt if you wish.
It’s better to look in the mirror and assess your own beauty rather than envy the unattainable. (Talmage J. Raine, MD, FACS, Champaign Plastic Surgeon)
Brazilian Butt Lifting definition
A Brazilian Butt Lift is Buttock sculpting and augmentation using your own fat. You and your Plastic surgeon will analyze your buttocks and agree on the look you want to achieve. Based on the form and volume of your current buttocks, a certain amount of fat will be gently suctioned from elsewhere and then be transferred to your buttocks.
There it is placed in small superimposed tunnels to assure as much contact between the fat with the blood supply to maximize the potential survival (“take”) of the fat. There will be some loss of fat in the transfer but the fat which survives is a natural living implant which will last. (Peter A. Aldea, MD, Memphis Plastic Surgeon)
Brazilian Butt Enhancement
The appropriate way to think about Brazilian Butt enhancement is NOT to want some one else’s butt. You should think to enhance your butt to fit your body image. Therefore, Butt enhancement means sculpting your body, abdomen, flaks, hips thighs, liposuctioning the excess fat, processing that fat and transfering that purified fat to the areas of the buttock that need enhancement. It requires a full evaluation of your body do a computer imaging to evaluate your body and areas that need to be addressed to achieve what you want, and desire. It is the NEW YOU. (Samir Shureih, MD, Baltimore Plastic Surgeon)
Fat transfer from areas of excess fat to the buttock
This procedure involves removal of fat from one area in the body (e.g abdomen or flanks) and injecting it into the buttocks following a filtration process that separates the fat cells from oil and debris. (Hisham Seify, MD, PhD, FACS, Orange County Plastic Surgeon)
The brazilian butt lift is a procedure that involves a combination of body contouring achieved by liposuction combined with lipoinjection to the buttock in order to accomplish enlargment and enhancment.
Brazilian Butt Lift equals fat transfer to the buttocks
A Brazilian Buttock Lift is an outpatient procedure performed to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks using a specialized fat transfer technique. Fat is taken from donor sites, such as the abdomen, flanks or thighs.
It is then processed and purified. The fat is then meticulously injected into tunnels in the layers of the buttocks. Because this procedure requires much skill, it is important to select a highly skilled plastic surgeon who specializes in this procedure to ensure a smooth, even result. The Brazilian Buttock Lift method is the preferred procedure for buttock augmentation because unlike the use of silicone buttock implants, the body cannot reject the fat injected. Patients also do not have to worry about the risk of the implant slipping or rotating. It is also preferred because it can help to fill in dimples and depressions in the buttocks for a smoother, rounder result. (Tarick K. Smaili, MD, Beverly Hills Plastic Surgeon)
Dual benefit from Brazilian Butt Lift
The great thing about a Brazilian Butt Lift is that you take fat from unwanted areas in the body and then place them in the buttocks to give the desired enhancement. The technique involves harvesting fat from the abdomen, flanks or thighs using liposuction techniques, purifying the fat and then injecting it into the buttocks as a live graft.
This gives a very natural enhancement without the added worry of implants or large scars. (Robert M. Jensen, MD, Medford Plastic Surgeon)

How to get a Kim Kardashian butt
Here in South Florida, many patients come to our clinic and request body contouring to make their body look a little bit more like certain celebrities such as Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez.
The most important factor in a successful cosmetic surgery is that the ultimate result should fit you and your body. Ms. Kardashian has a great figure and this is due almost entirely to genetics. For patients that wish a similar figure we can accomplish this with a Brazilian butt lift. During this surgery we combine thorough liposuction of the abdomen, hips, waist, flanks, lower back, and thighs and then use the fact that we’ve collected to sculpt and build the butt region.
With this combination, we can create a tight and beautiful abdomen and waist with a full and round bottom. Keep in mind that your ultimate results depend on the surgical technique that is used as well as the experience of the surgeon.
Therefore you should only work with a board-certified plastic surgeon was great to experience and body contouring, fat grafting, and butt augmentation. Please take a look at the photos that we have posted on this website to get an idea of what this procedure can accomplish. (Pat Pazmino, MD, Miami Plastic Surgeon)
