Surgery BBL | Medical Clinic in Marbella | Cirumed (2024)

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is Cirumed’s signature procedure and has been expertly developed by Dr. Aslani himself. The BBL surgery involves harvesting excess fat cells from one part of your body, such as the flanks, waist, or arms, and injecting them into targeted locations around the buttocks. This technique essentially transfers natural fat cells from one part of your body to the buttocks, thus ensuring natural and aesthetic results.

BBL is described as the ideal ‘beach body’ procedure and focuses on enhancing the appearance of the buttocks. During the assessment, your doctor will recommend which approach will best suit your needs based on your individual concerns. This type of procedure will require you to stay for one night in the clinic, and you have the option of making use of our transportation services, ensuring you are taken care of from door to door.

The Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure

The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure is bespoke to you, and during your assessment, you and your surgeon will decide which technique will work best to produce your desired look. The team will ensure you are welcomed and settled into the hospital before meeting with your surgeon.

The butt enlargement surgery is usually performed by way of 360-degree liposculpture, i.e., liposuction of your abdomen, back, and flanks, also known as love handles. The surgeon makes small incisions on the donor sites and inserts a cannula to suction out excess fat cells. Liposculpture adds volume by harvesting your body’s own fat resources. The fat deposits are clinically prepared before being inserted into specific places, such as the hips and the buttocks, via a small blunt-tip cannula to create a more curvy, hourglass figure.

How do I know whether BBL surgery is right for me?

The Brazilian Butt Lift is mostly requested by those who are looking to enhance the size and shape of their buttocks, as well as fill out the hip-dips. This procedure is ideal for patients that are lacking projection and shape in their buttocks and hips. Your Brazilian Butt Lift doctor will carefully review your health history and run numerous tests to ensure you’re a suitable candidate for the procedure.

Is the BBL procedure safe?

Our surgeons are specialized in BBL safety, and Dr. Aslani travels the world teaching his methods and techniques for safe BBL. We also welcome over one hundred guest surgeons every year who travel to Marbella to learn Dr. Aslani’s technique. Our method is to inject subcutaneously, not intramuscular, and only use special blunt tip 4mm basket cannulas instead of pointy syringes. Our technique ensures the BBL surgery’s safety.

Does the BBL surgery hurt?

Liposculpture can often cause the patient to experience a little discomfort. To ensure the actual procedure remains pain-free for you, we will administer a general anesthetic so you are asleep throughout. We also recommend the use of local anesthesia in the lower back to help with pain relief the first few days after the procedure.

How do I prepare for the Brazilian Butt Lift surgery?

As with many other surgical procedures, patients will benefit from abstaining from smoking four weeks before and four weeks after surgery, and you may be asked to stop taking certain medications. You will be required to fast before the procedure, and you should ensure that any concerns have been discussed with our team.

What should I expect after a BBL? What is the recovery process like?

Most surgical procedures will require a period of rest and relaxation post-surgery. To allow your body to heal and recover effectively, you will need to avoid strenuous activities. Compression garments are necessary and vital for your recovery and results. Patients will be provided with a special pillow to use while sitting — the pillow should be placed behind the knees to avoid pressure on the buttocks. You must sleep on your front, not back or sides, to avoid placing pressure on the buttocks.
