Redefine Your Curves Naturally

Many women desire a more sculpted, full, or lifted look in the buttocks, but want to avoid implants or exaggerated outcomes. Whether due to weight loss, aging, or genetics, flatness or asymmetry in the lower body can feel misaligned with the rest of your shape. A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) offers a natural, harmonious solution, refining the waistline and enhancing the buttocks using your fat.

At Kristy Hamilton Plastic Surgery, the BBL is approached as a full-body balancing procedure. Using advanced liposuction and precise fat transfer techniques, Dr. Hamilton sculpts the body with an artistic eye for proportion, creating elegant, refined results that are unmistakably yours.

What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A Brazilian Butt Lift is a fat transfer procedure that uses liposuction to remove excess fat from areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, then purifies and injects that fat into the buttocks to add volume, projection, and lift.

Unlike implants, a BBL uses your tissue, making the results softer, more natural to the touch, and better integrated with your body’s shape. Dr. Hamilton’s technique emphasizes smooth transitions and subtle contouring, not overfilled or exaggerated changes, allowing for refined results that elevate your silhouette from all angles.

Is a Brazilian Butt Lift Right for Me?

A BBL may be ideal if you want to enhance your shape subtly without implants, and have enough excess fat in donor areas to transfer safely. Candidates are typically in good health, at a stable weight, and seeking more volume, projection, or symmetry in the buttocks. If you’ve experienced volume loss from weight fluctuations or aging—or simply desire more shape and curvature—Dr. Hamilton will assess your body proportions and goals to determine whether a BBL is the right solution for you.

The BBL Process What to Expect

Consultation

Dr. Hamilton will assess your frame, discuss desired outcomes, and identify ideal donor areas for liposuction and transfer.

Surgery

The procedure is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 2–3 hours. Liposuction is performed first, and the harvested fat is then purified and carefully injected into the buttocks using layered microinjections.

Contouring & Closure

Attention is given to smooth transitions, symmetry, and natural lift. Small liposuction incisions are closed with fine sutures.

Post-Procedure Support

You’ll wear a compression garment to minimize swelling and support shape, with detailed instructions on how to sit, sleep, and move during recovery.

Brazilian Butt Lift Recovery & Results

Most patients can return to light activity within 7–10 days, thanks in part to Dr. Hamilton’s accelerated recovery protocol, which is designed to minimize discomfort and downtime without the use of narcotics. Swelling gradually subsides over several weeks, and for optimal fat survival, avoiding direct pressure on the buttocks for the first 2–3 weeks is important.

Dr. Hamilton provides customized recovery guidance and seating support tools to make this phase as comfortable and effective as possible. Initial results are visible early on, but final shape and softness continue to refine as transferred fat settles and swelling resolves. The result? A more lifted, contoured silhouette that feels in proportion with the rest of your body.

How much fat survives after the transfer?

On average, 60–80% of the transferred fat survives long-term. Dr. Hamilton uses advanced methods to maximize retention.

Will I lose volume if I lose weight?

Significant weight loss can reduce fat in all areas, including the buttocks, so stable weight is important for lasting results.

When can I sit normally again?

Patients typically use a special cushion or avoid direct pressure for 2–3 weeks, and normal sitting resumes around 4 weeks later.

Are the results permanent?

Once the transferred fat has established a blood supply, it becomes a permanent part of your body. However, lifestyle changes can affect shape over time.

Can I combine BBL with other procedures?

Yes. Many patients combine a BBL with procedures like liposuction, tummy tuck, or breast surgery for a more complete transformation.
