Butt lift surgery otherwise known as (Brazilian Butt Lift, or BBL) is a procedure that reshapes the buttocks by reducing excess skin, and depending on the patient’s individual needs either reducing or increasing the amount of fat in the buttock, resulting in smoother skin and a firmer, rounder, better-proportioned contours of the buttocks. In some patients, a better-shaped buttock contour can be achieved from fat injection alone.

A butt lift is designed to tighten the skin and improve the contour of the buttocks, giving a firmer, rounder, better-shaped contour. This is achieved by removing excess skin and in many cases increasing the amount of fat in the buttock by fat injection (transfer).

Before undergoing surgery, it is important that you:

• Be as fit as possible to help the recovery process

• Reach your optimal weight

• Check with your surgeon about your medications as some may need to be stopped

• Stop smoking

• You will also be asked to provide a complete medical history for your Specialist Plastic Surgeon including any health problems you have had, any medication you are taking or have taken, and any allergies you may have.

• You may be advised to stop taking certain medicines such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), aspirin, and medicines that contain aspirin. You may also be asked to stop taking naturopathic substances such as garlic, ginkgo, ginseng, and St John’s Wort as they may affect clotting and anesthesia. Always tell your surgeon EVERYTHING you are taking.

You may be given medicines to take before the surgery, such as antibiotics.

Your surgeon will also advise you if any other tests are required, such as blood tests, X-ray examinations, or an Electrocardiograph (ECG) to assess your heart.

Prepare a “recovery area” in your home. This may include pillows, ice packs, a thermometer, and a telephone within easy reach. Make sure you arrange for a relative or friend to drive you to and from the hospital or clinic. Someone should also stay with you for at least 24 hours after you return home.

Your surgeon should give detailed preoperative instructions. Follow them carefully.
