What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian Butt Lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure that uses your own body fat to enhance the size and shape of your buttocks. Unlike implants, which use artificial materials, a BBL provides a natural-looking result by transferring fat from other areas of your body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or lower back, to the buttocks.

Who is a Suitable Candidate?
A Brazilian Butt Lift is ideal for individuals who:
- Desire a fuller, rounder, or more lifted buttock appearance.
- Have sufficient fat deposits in other areas of the body (e.g., abdomen, thighs) for harvesting.
- Are in good overall health and maintain a stable weight.
- Have realistic expectations about the results of the procedure.
During your consultation at Linia Cosmetic Surgery, our expert surgeons will assess your body shape, discuss your goals, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure.

The Treatment Process in London
The Brazilian Butt Lift in London is performed under general anaesthesia and typically takes 2-4 hours, depending on the extent of the treatment. Here’s a step-by-step overview of the process:
Fat Harvesting (Liposuction):
- Fat is gently removed from donor areas, such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, using liposuction techniques.
- This step not only provides the fat needed for the buttock augmentation but also contours the donor areas for a slimmer appearance.
Fat Purification:
- The harvested fat is carefully processed to remove impurities and prepare it for transfer.
Fat Injection:
- Using specialised techniques, the purified fat is injected into the buttocks to create a fuller, more rounded shape.
- Our expert surgeons strategically place the fat to achieve a natural-looking result that complements your body proportions, ensuring optimal outcomes for your Brazilian Butt Lift in London.
Recovery and Aftercare After a Brazilian Butt Lift in London
Recovery from a Brazilian Butt Lift requires careful attention to ensure optimal results. Here’s what you can expect:
Initial Recovery (1-2 weeks):
- You may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort in both the donor and treatment areas.
- You will need to avoid sitting or lying directly on your buttocks for at least 2 weeks to protect the newly transferred fat.
- Most patients can return to light activities within 1-2 weeks.
Full Recovery (4-6 weeks):
- Swelling will gradually subside, and you will begin to see the final results of your procedure.
- Strenuous activities and exercise should be avoided for at least 6 weeks.
Aftercare:
- Our team will provide detailed instructions on how to care for your incisions, manage discomfort, and maintain your results.
- Wearing a compression garment is often recommended to support healing and contouring.
Results and Longevity
The results of a Brazilian Butt Lift are visible immediately, though the final outcome will become apparent once swelling has subsided, typically within 3-6 months. With proper care, the results can be long-lasting. However, maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle is essential to preserve your new contours.
Why Choose a Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian Butt Lift offers numerous benefits, including:
- Natural-Looking Results: Using your own fat creates a soft, natural feel and appearance.
- Dual Benefits: The procedure not only enhances your buttocks but also contours the areas where fat is removed.
- Customisable: The treatment is tailored to your unique body shape and aesthetic goals.
- No Implants: Unlike buttock implants, a BBL uses your body’s own tissue, reducing the risk of complications.

Combining BBL with Other Procedures
Many patients choose to combine a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) with other procedures to achieve a more comprehensive transformation. Here are some popular combinations:
BBL + Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty):
- This combination is ideal for patients who want to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen while enhancing their buttocks.
- The tummy tuck tightens the abdominal muscles and removes loose skin, creating a flatter, more toned midsection.
- Together, these procedures create a balanced, hourglass figure.
BBL + Liposuction:
- Liposuction can be performed on areas like the waist, flanks, or thighs to harvest fat for the BBL while sculpting the body further.
- This combination enhances overall body contours, creating a more defined and proportionate silhouette.
BBL + Breast Augmentation:
- For patients seeking a fuller, more balanced look, combining BBL with breast augmentation can create a classic hourglass shape.
- Whether you choose implants or a fat transfer for the breasts, this combination enhances both the upper and lower body for a harmonious result.
Benefits of Combining Procedures:
- Reduced overall recovery time compared to having separate surgeries.
- Cost savings on facility fees and anaesthesia.
- A more dramatic and cohesive transformation.
Questions & Answers
Some common questions we get asked about Brazilian Butt Lift
Why is a Brazilian Butt Lift performed?
A Brazilian Butt Lift is performed to:
- Increase the volume and projection of the buttocks.
- Improve the contour and symmetry of the buttocks.
- Enhance overall body proportions and create a more balanced silhouette.
- Address flat or disproportionate buttocks due to genetics, aging, or weight loss.
How is a Brazilian Butt Lift performed?
The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure typically involves the following steps:
Liposuction: Excess fat is harvested from donor areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or back through liposuction.
Fat processing: The harvested fat is processed to purify it and remove excess fluids and impurities.
Fat injection: The processed fat is injected into various layers of the buttocks to enhance volume, shape, and projection.
Sculpting: The surgeon sculpts the buttocks to achieve the desired contour and symmetry.
Incision closure: The incisions from liposuction are closed with sutures.
Is a Brazilian Butt Lift performed under anesthesia?
Yes, a Brazilian Butt Lift is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure the patient’s comfort and safety during the procedure.
Are there any risks or complications associated with a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Like any surgical procedure, a Brazilian Butt Lift carries certain risks and potential complications, including:
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Fat embolism (rare but serious complication associated with fat grafting)
- Changes in sensation
- Scarring
- Asymmetry or irregular contours
When will I see the final results of a Brazilian Butt Lift?
While some initial improvement may be noticeable soon after the surgery, it may take several weeks to months for the swelling to fully subside and the final results to become apparent. The buttocks will continue to settle and refine in shape and appearance over time.
How can I schedule a consultation for a Brazilian Butt Lift?
If you’re considering a Brazilian Butt Lift, we recommend scheduling a consultation with a surgeon specialising in body contouring procedures. During the consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your concerns, discuss your goals, and recommend the most suitable treatment options for you.
What happens during bbl surgery?
Simply speaking, the Brazilian Butt Lift is a fat transfer to the buttocks.Generally conducted under general anaesthesia, the BBL surgery is a day case procedure where fat is harvested from other areas of the body like the abdomen, back, hips or thighs and purified so that only the highest quality fat cells are used for injection to the buttocks.
How long does brazilian butt lift take?
This depends heavily on the individual and on various factors including your desired outcome (size and shape of your buttocks) and how much fat that needs to be harvested to complete the procedure. With this in mind, the BBL surgery takes anywhere between an hour and a half to three hours. You’ll get a better idea after speaking to your surgeon during your consultation.
Ideal candidates for bbl surgery
If you’re a healthy adult who would like a more natural buttocks enhancement to improve the shape, size, contour or simply provide your bum with a ‘lift’ (or all of the above), then you could be a good candidate for this procedure.
Candidates should have enough fat to use in the transfer process and expectations of the final results from the procedure must be realistic. Your surgeon will ensure that this is the case during your consultation where you can both address any concerns or ask questions.
If you do fit this criteria, the Brazilian bum lift can prove an effective surgery for a natural looking butt enhancement in a fairly minimally invasive way.
Recovery from the butt lift procedure
Our glutes are used on a daily basis to perform much of our movement in our daily lives. Because of this, there are some significant activity restrictions which you’ll need to adhere to as you recover from your bum injections – your surgeon will outline these restrictions for you and it is highly recommended you follow them for the best outcome from your BBL surgery.
If patients work involves sitting down for much of the day, 3-4 weeks or more should be taken off from work. If less sitting is involved in your work, then at least 2 weeks should be planned off from work. Generally, a compression garment is worn for around 3-6 months following the procedure.
Pain and discomfort involved with the recovery can be controlled with prescribed medication, and patients should just try to take it easy and recover at their own pace. Final results should become apparent at about 6 months to one year, once swelling has subsided and the fat has had a chance to establish itself in the buttock enhancement area after transfer.
What are the risks and likely aftereffects?
Cosmetic Surgery, like any other surgery, involves a “trauma” to the human body and there are risks associated with any procedure. Each person’s body is different, and your general health, level of fitness, age and genetic profile will all have an effect on the speed of healing and also on the risk of side-effects.
If you smoke, drink alcohol, are overweight and/or take drugs for medical or other reasons, the risk of complication during and after surgery can be greatly increased. Smoking, in particular, is discouraged because it increases the risk both of infection, wound breakdown and thrombosis (blood clots).
After Fat Transfer it is normal for all patients to experience tiredness, swelling, pain, bruising and temporary numbness. It is common that after Fat Transfer to Butt you loss some of the fat from the injected area during the first few months.
A surgical Fat Transfer is generally a safe procedure, but it can occasionally result in a collection of blood underneath the skin (haematoma), death of fat tissue (fat necrosis) and a recognised complication such as blockage in a blood vessel caused by a piece of fat (fat embolism) and thick, obvious scars- known as hypertrophic scars.

🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
Hello Everyone – I recently attended Linia Cosmetic Clinic at Harley Street. Yes! I was scared, nervous and excited at the prospect of an “S” lift, eye procedure and B.A whilst being aware and awake. SOUNDS silly but l enjoyed it, listening to everything being explained and some lovely music of my choice. Most important of all were the staff and Mr Aslam who made you feel relaxed and confident. So anyone considering? GO FOR IT.
🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
Neck Lift Procedure – Quick and Efficient. Good Quality Care and Follow Up. Very Good Results. Pleasant and Professional Staff. Experience was as Described.
🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
Upper Eye Lid Surgery – I would highly recommend Linia they were very efficient from consultation through to the aftercare. I am very pleased with the surgery Dr Aslam carried out. I had the same surgery 10 years ago with Spire with minimal success. Thank you Linia.
🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
Customer Service was excellent, staff were very supportive both prior to and following the procedure, answering any questions, worries or concerns that I had very quickly and thoroughly. Would recommend Linia and would definitely consider other procedures to be performed at Linia
🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
Dr Aslam has been great during this experience. The Linia team and nurse staff have also done all they could to support me. I found having my op under local strange at first (I have a fear of needles). I was very worried – but having it done was great compared to general. My recovery time was much less and I was back to work much sooner than expected.
🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
Local anaesthetic was a much better experience than general. It was more relaxed and less painful. Recovery time was a lot quicker – there was no drowsiness or feeling sick. I would definitely use this option again if needed.
