BBL: Natural look and feel by using the patient's own fat.
Butt Lift: Permanent removal of excess loose skin for a smoother surface.
Complications or Risks
Risks vary in severity and include:
Build-up of fluid (seroma) or blood under the skin (hematoma).
Chronic pain.

Incisions splitting.
Permanent sensation loss.
Blood clots or fat clots leading to severe complications.

Frequently Questions Asked
Who are the right candidates for buttock augmentation?
Any woman who feels that she desires a curvaceous body can undergo this surgery. Patients of massive weight loss are also prime candidates for this procedure.
Males looking for a more defined and an athletic looking buttock can also check out this surgery.
Is this the same as the Brazilian Butt Lift(BBL)?
BBL is a surgery where fat was put into the muscles in the buttock. There have been reports of even deaths with this surgery. Hence, based on international guidelines we do not perform this surgery. What we do is grafting fat into the subcutaneous tissue by a procedure known as EVL or Expansion Vibration Liposculpting⁴pp. This is a safe method with equally gratifying results.
Is it that I will have a big butt after this surgery?
Not necessarily. It depends on what you want. If you only want a change in shape or filling of certain areas, the procedure can be customised accordingly.
