Diet and exercise can go a long way, but sometimes, you need assistance to achieve your desired look. Buttock augmentation, or a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), is a procedure that increases the volume of your buttock using unwanted fat from other areas of your body.
Dr. Pedro Soler is a top BBL plastic surgeon and has over 20 years of experience assisting patients in achieving their ideal appearance, and he looks forward to helping you discover which of our practice’s many procedures is best for you.
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Unlike implants, a Brazilian butt lift surgeon will sculpt and contour the shape of the buttocks to a patient’s desired appearance. The Brazilian butt lift process is as follows:
- Dr. Soler will administer anesthesia for larger procedures and local anesthesia for more minor procedures.
- You will undergo liposuction to remove fat from areas like the hips, stomach and thighs. During a liposuction procedure, Dr. Soler will make small incisions in the skin before using a tube to remove body fat.
- Dr. Soler will ready the fat stores and inject them into your buttocks to create a more rounded, full look.
- Dr. Soler will close the injection sites with stitches and apply a compression garment to reduce the risk of bleeding.

Is a Brazilian Butt Lift Right for Me?
A Brazilian butt lift is similar to any cosmetic procedure in that your decision is personal, and every person has their own reasons for undergoing this procedure. Some factors to consider to determine if a BBL is right for you include:
- You’re near your ideal body weight: Brazilian butt lifts are not weight loss procedures, and if you are under or overweight, you may wish to wait until you are at your ideal weight before undergoing a BBL.
- You have enough weight for the procedure: A BBL requires fat from areas like the abdomen, back and thighs. If you don’t have enough fat in these areas or your skin is too loose, you may need to undergo multiple cosmetic procedures.
- You understand the recovery process: While a BBL is an outpatient procedure, you will still have a recovery period of several weeks. You may want to adjust your schedule for the following weeks after your procedure.
What Does Recovery From a Brazilian Butt Lift Look Like?
The recovery process for a buttock lift lasts about six weeks. You should avoid sitting or lying on your back for the first two weeks by sleeping on your side or stomach and sitting on a donut-shaped seat or pillow. Most BBL patients can resume their normal activities within a week after surgery. However, you should still avoid strenuous activity for up to eight weeks.
Like any surgery, it is essential to follow Dr. Soler’s post-surgery instructions. This may mean wearing an elastic support girdle or staying one or two nights at a hospital or nursing facility to ensure you can receive any catheters or pain injections as needed. Dr. Soler will discuss the recovery process during your initial consultation at our office.
Are Brazilian Butt Lifts Covered Under Insurance?
Brazilian butt lifts are a cosmetic procedure and do not qualify for insurance coverage. Patients can explore two financing options instead:
- CareCredit: Undergoing a Brazilian butt lift is affordable thanks to CareCredit’s flexible financing options, with limits ranging from $1 to $25,000.
- ALPHAEON CREDIT: Explore various monthly payment options to help you reach your individual surgery goals.
Options for Patients Traveling
If you are driving or flying to our office for your surgery, we advise that you remain in the area for a few days after surgery. We recommend looking at the chart below for an estimated timeline. During your initial consultation, Dr. Soler will also discuss the exact number of days you should plan to stay in the area post-surgery.

Dr. Soler allowed me to ask questions every step of the way, and gave me multiple options to decide what procedure was right for me. He is also very thorough with his follow-up appointments. All the office staff are amazing. The front desk ladies where very helpful in supportive with any concerns I had. Lori the manger was also great. She always made herself available when I had questions. She even reached out to Dr. Soler when he wasn't working to answer a question about my recovery.
