Latest plastic surgery statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) reveals that the popularity of the Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is on the rise. According to ASPS, the number of BBLs performed by its members has more than doubled in the last five years, making it one of the fastest-growing plastic surgery procedures. ASPS reports that buttock augmentation with fat grafting rose from 20,301 procedures in 2017 to 24,099 in 2018, a 19 % increase.

One of the main reasons for the rising popularity of BBL is that it helps women enhance buttock size and shape when diet and exercise fail to provide the desired results. Moreover, BBL uses the patient’s own fat for the enhancement. Experienced plastic surgeons offering Brazilian butt lift in NYC provide customized treatment to help women achieve a perkier, youthful-looking butt and also enhance their overall appearance.

The first step in the BBL procedure involves removing unwanted fat from different areas of the body such as the mid back of bra rolls, flanks, outer thighs, inner thighs, and abdomen through liposuction. This extracted fat is then purified and re-injected to the buttocks. As the procedure uses the patient’s own fat, there are no implant related risks. Buttock augmentation with autologous tissue also provides natural-looking results.

The reasons for the rising popularity of Brazilian butt lift surgery are as follows:

Provides a fuller, well-toned, younger-looking butt - This procedure is an ideal option for women whose buttocks are flat, small, sagging or asymmetrical or disproportionate or whose buttocks have changed the shape following massive weight loss. BBL can correct these concerns and result in a rounder, perkier derriere.
Offers added benefit of fat reduction in problem areas – In BBL, fat for the enhancement is removed from areas where it is abundant. Fat transfer improves buttock shape and size, while liposuction of the flanks, abdomen and waist slims down these areas, to create a more feminine, hourglass figure.
Minimal downtime – Experienced NYC plastic surgeons offer a moderate to small BBL under local anesthesia. This avoids the risks associated with general anesthesia, and minimizes patient downtime and recovery time.
Results are satisfying – As the BBL the patient’s own fat, there will be less risk for health complications such as allergies or intolerance. With implants, results are limited to the sizes and shapes of implants that are available. On the other hand, the BBL can be customized to achieve the patient’s desired outcomes. Results of BBL can be seen within six months after the procedure. Once new fat settles and combines with the original fat, the results are long-lasting and permanent.

If you are considering a Brazilian butt lift in Manhattan, choose a skilled plastic surgeon with extensive experience in performing the procedure. The surgeon should be expert in liposuction as well as fat grafting. With the right surgeon, patients can expect to achieve an attractive posterior as well as a curvy figure with a smaller hip to waist ratio.
