BBL Surgery in Pennsylvania


What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A beautiful body has an attractive silhouette. You can enhance your silhouette by accentuating your curves. One of the ways to highlight your curves is to improve the shape and size of your buttocks. A Brazilian butt lift, or BBL, uses fat grafting to give you round, shapely buttocks and also eliminate unwanted fat from other areas of your body.

Dr. Schlechter has received advanced training in the BBL procedure from a highly respected and world-renowned BBL guru, and he is pleased to offer his expertise and skills to all his BBL patients.

At Spring Ridge Plastic Surgery, our board-certified plastic surgeon is dedicated to providing exceptional buttock enhancement results. When you undergo a BBL in Philadelphia, this surgical procedure effectively removes fat from unwanted areas and injects it into the buttocks to create a fuller, more contoured appearance.

Achieved With a Brazilian Butt Lift

A More Attractive Figure

A Brazilian butt lift can give you a more attractive figure in more than one way. In addition to enhancing the buttocks, this procedure also minimizes areas of stubborn, localized fat. Using fat grafting, the BBL eliminates unwanted fat from your abdomen, hips, or other areas and redistributes it to your buttocks to give you an overall more attractive figure.

BBL Surgery FAQs

Am I a candidate for the BBL procedure?

To be a candidate for the BBL, you should be in good health and of a healthy body weight. You must also have realistic expectations, good skin quality, and a desire to improve the shape and firmness of your buttocks. Patients must have sufficient excess fat in other areas of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs, from which the fat can be extracted for fat grafting into the buttocks. Candidates should also be non-smokers or willing to quit for a period of time before and after the BBL procedure.

Can I still get a Brazilian butt lift if I am thin?

Patients will not qualify for the Brazilian butt lift if they do not have enough fat that can be grafted to sufficiently enhance the buttocks. During your consultation, Dr. Schlechter will determine if the Brazilian butt lift procedure is right for you.

Are there any risks associated with getting BBL surgery?

The Brazilian butt lift is a safe procedure, especially because the injected material is your own body fat. In rare cases, patients may experience complications such as infections, blood clots, stretch marks, asymmetry, numbness, or poor fat resorption. If these compromise the quality of your results, Dr. Schlechter may perform revision surgery to correct them.

What will recovery be like after my Brazilian butt lift procedure?

Your recovery from your Brazilian butt lift will last for several weeks. Some soreness, bruising, tenderness, and redness may occur for a few days to a few weeks after the procedure. You can take pain medications to control any discomfort during this time. It is important to avoid sitting as much as possible for three full weeks after the procedure so that your results are not compromised.

Dr. Schlechter provides all his patients with a recovery packet which has the information you'll need during your recovery including the recommended cushion you should use. You will be able to return to work three weeks after your procedure or as soon as two weeks after your procedure if your job does not require prolonged sitting

Will I have scars after my Brazilian butt lift?

Unlike butt implants, which require lengthy incisions for their insertion, the BBL procedure requires only minor incisions for the liposuction part of the procedure. As a result, you will have minimal to no scarring after your BBL.

Are the results of a Brazilian butt lift permanent?

The results of a Brazilian butt lift are long-lasting to permanent. The fat that successfully grafts into the tissues of the buttocks will remain there indefinitely to enhance the shape and size of your buttocks

How much does BBL plastic surgery cost?

The cost of your Brazilian Butt Lift will depend on your specific anatomy and surgery. Please see our Plastic Surgery Procedure Pricing Guide for more information.
