The Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery is a decision that will affect a patient’s appearance for many years to come, if not their whole lives. An effective buttock augmentation surgery can improve the patient’s life in various positive ways.  

But in the hands of an inexperienced or inappropriately trained surgeon, the chances of poor or unwanted outcomes may be higher. 

The patient may even experience an extended duration of pain and disappointment or incur additional expenses for revision surgeries if they choose a provider who is not adequately-equipped to undertake Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery.

Before choosing a surgeon to perform the procedure, it is important for the patient to talk to the surgeon in question. The patient can call, email, or set-up an appointment with the prospective surgeon to get the answers that they seek about the procedure as well as understand how interacting with the surgeon makes them feel.

Why Choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon?

Surgeons who are board certified would have undergone a minimum number of years of plastic surgery training, which is a reassurance for patients. 

American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) certified surgeons typically invest in top-notch quality standards and best practices, adopt the latest surgical techniques and technologies, and pursue on-going education to update their knowledge and skills. 

Personal Rapport 

There should be a strong relationship based on honesty, trust, and communication between the surgeon and patient to attain effective outcomes in any surgical procedure. The surgeon should be warm, compassionate, and willing to engage closely with the patient. 

Additionally, the surgeon should encourage the patient to express any concerns or doubts that they may have on any aspect of the buttock augmentation procedure. Surgeons who typically create excellent results for their patients are experts in combining their strong surgical capabilities with equally powerful communication skills. 

This unique blend offers the patient safe and successful surgical outcomes. When considering a surgeon for their Brazilian butt lift cosmetic surgery, the patient can ask themselves the following questions:

• When spending time with this plastic surgeon, do I feel comfortable?
• Am I sure that this cosmetic surgeon will recommend procedures that are suitable and safe for me?
• Would I feel comfortable asking questions or expressing concerns to this surgeon at any point in the surgical process?
• Will I be able to unhesitatingly disclose my complete medical history and lifestyle habits to this surgeon? (this aspect is crucial for the patient’s safety)

Customized Care and Attention

For the success of any surgical procedure, it is important for the patient to receive individualized care. The patient should ensure that they receive proper care and attention from the surgeon and their team. Much of this will be apparent within minutes of entering the surgeon’s practice. 

The patient should look closely at the following:

• Is the administrative team at the practice warm and friendly?
• Will I receive materials that will help me prepare appropriately for the risks and challenges associated with Brazilian buttock lift surgery?
• Are the charges stated in a transparent way? Is the estimate all-inclusive or are there any hidden expenses?
• Can I talk to the surgeon on every occasion that I visit the office for my butt augmentation procedure?

The risks involved in Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery, or fat transfer buttock augmentation, are relatively lower. However, the patient should still have clarity about the procedure.

Infection

The risk of infection is higher if the surgical facility and operating room are not sterile, or if the patient does not clean the wounds are directed. In case signs of infection such as fever, persistent redness, yellow or green drainage, or a foul smell are seen during the post-operative recovery period, the patient should promptly reach out to the surgeon.

Unwanted Scarring

In case of the Brazilian butt lift cosmetic surgery, scarring is typically minimal. An expert surgeon will make very tiny incisions to insert a narrow cannula for liposuction and subsequent fat transfer to the butt region. But if the surgeon has limited or no experience with liposuction, they may place larger or conspicuous incisions, which can cause unwanted scarring. 

Reabsorbed Fat

When fat is transferred for a Brazilian butt lift, some of the injected fat may be reabsorbed. This can slightly diminish the final effect of the procedure. An experienced can reduce the risk of reabsorption by injecting the highest quality purified fat. 

The patient should not put a strain on the rear for around two weeks after the surgery. They should wear compression garments all the time, according to the surgeon’s guidelines. The fat absorption can be maximized by placing a higher number of smaller injections into diverse sites of normal tissue.

Seroma

Fluid accumulation can develop underneath the incision sites, creating painful inflammation and increasing the risks of infection. The placement of drainage tubes and incision care can minimize the risk of seroma. 

If the patient experiences this condition after the surgery, they should reach out to the surgeon to suction out the serous fluid that has collected beneath the skin. 

Excessive Bleeding

At times, the wounds may bleed profusely if the incisions have not been appropriately sutured, or if the patient suffers from delayed healing, or has used anticoagulant drugs. 

In the initial month after Brazilian butt lift, the patient should avoid aggressive activities to reduce the risk of bleeding. In exceptional cases, excessive bleeding may necessitate blood transfusion or additional surgery. 

Tissue Necrosis

The modification of the butt tissue can sometimes restrict their blood and nutrition supply. This can cause the healthy surrounding tissue to die. The decimated cells may lead to stiffness, discoloration, and skin aberrations. The necrosis affected tissue may have to be excised. This risk is higher in patients who are smokers.

Prolonged Loss of Sensation

After the Brazilian butt lift surgery, there may be temporary numbness in certain areas of the buttock tissue. The sensitivity will slowly return. But, in rare cases, if the nerves sustain damage during the surgical procedure, the patient may experience extended or permanent sensation loss.

Today, patients increasingly prefer the Brazilian butt lift cosmetic surgery with fat transfer technique as it involves tiny incisions and creates more natural looking and sustainable results. 

The surgeon will explain the steps involved in the Brazilian butt lift procedure to the patient at the time of the pre-op consultation process.

Anesthesia

Some surgeons undertake Brazilian butt lift surgery with the patient under general anesthesia. However, sometimes the surgeon may use local anesthesia with intravenous (IV) sedation. 

Upon being brought into the operating room, the patient will receive anesthesia before the Brazilian butt lift surgery commences. 

An anesthesiologist or a registered nurse anesthetist will put the patient under general anesthesia. They will usually remain in attendance during the procedure to monitor the patient’s reaction to the anesthetic. The patient will remain unconscious during the butt augmentation plastic surgery and will not experience discomfort. 

Fat Removal from Donor Areas

Once the patient is asleep under anesthesia, the surgeon will perform the initial step in the Brazilian butt lift process, which involves the elimination of excess fat from the abdomen and other areas such as the flanks or thighs via liposuction. They will insert a thin cannula into the deeper fat tissue layers through these small incisions.

The surgeon will then gently move the cannula back and forth to break down the excess fatty tissue. After this, they will use a pump or syringe connected to the outer end of the cannula to suction out the excess fat cells. This process involves the removal of nearly three to four times the fat needed for transfer to the buttock area. 

The surgeon will source this fat from one or more donor areas to ensure that there is an adequate supply of purified fat for the Brazilian butt lift procedure. 

Fat Purification Process 

Once the surgeon extracts the fat from the donor sites, these fat cells will be processed in a centrifuge to separate the purified fat. This is an automated process to ensure that the fat is not contaminated in any manner. 

In today’s times, the developments in technology enable the maximum quantity of fat to be used for effective fat transfer making the results of the procedure more sustainable. The fat that has been purified will be stored in sterile conditions until the surgeon is ready to transfer in the butt area through an injectable procedure. 

Fat Transfer

The surgeon will utilize only the best tissue for injecting into the buttock area using narrow cannulas at multiple depths to make sure that the outcomes appear and feel natural. 

The fat transfer technique and the butt augmentation goals of the patient will determine the number, depth, and amount of fat injections. 

Multiple tiny injections usually create a more consistent butt appearance. The surgery will take between one to two hours to complete. Cosmetic surgeon Dr. Roger Tsai receives patients from West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, CA, and nearby areas for Brazilian butt lift surgery.
