For many people, achieving a toned physique is about more than just looking good. It can provide you with a feeling of empowerment and confidence. But, sometimes exercise and diet alone cannot eliminate stubborn fat deposits or remove excess skin. In this case, a Brazilian butt lift in Walnut Creek might be the solution for you.
At Golden Hills Plastic Surgery, our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Seth Eberlin, provides a wide range of tailored body contouring procedures, including Brazilian butt lifts. With a keen eye for detail and precise surgical techniques, Dr. Eberlin can help you achieve your dream look and boost your self-image.
While traditional butt lifts in Walnut Creek use implants to increase the volume of your buttocks, during a Brazilian butt lift (BBL), Dr. Eberlin uses fat transfer to shape your curves. The procedure typically involves three steps: liposuction, fat purification, and fat injection.
During this step, Dr. Eberlin uses liposuction to carefully remove fat from your thighs, hips, or midsection. This approach not only removes excess fat, but also optimizes your overall “frame,” revealing the curves currently hidden by stubborn pockets of fullness. By taking a strategic approach to which areas are targeted, Dr. Eberlin sets the stage for balanced results once the fat is transferred.
Before we reinject your fat, we will process it in the Sientra Viality fat transfer system. Dr. Eberlin is careful when isolating and washing the fat to ensure that the fat cells stay viable. These steps improve the viability of the fat and increase the amount of fat retained after the procedure. The amount of fat that Dr. Eberlin isolates and transfers will depend on what you both decide before the procedure.
In the next step, Dr. Eberlin will inject the purified fat cells into your buttocks to enhance shape and volume. Rather than simply replacing fat, he sculpts your buttocks to create a fuller, rounder appearance that complements your lower body as a whole. This approach ensures your results look natural and harmonious with the newly contoured midsection.
At Golden Hills Plastic Surgery, we personalize each procedure to ensure optimal results and patient satisfaction.
A BBL procedure in Walnut Creek offers a number of benefits, such as:
When you choose a dedicated surgeon like ours at Golden Hills Plastic Surgery, you can expect natural-looking, long-lasting results.
While healing times vary, many patients find that resting and following post-operative instructions leads to a more comfortable experience. You are able to walk immediately after surgery, but you will likely need to avoid putting direct pressure on your buttocks after surgery. For instance, you may need to sleep on your front or side for the first two weeks and avoid long sitting, including traveling and driving.
Your recovery can take about six weeks, which is generally shorter than after butt lifts that involve implants. As bruising and swelling subsides, your Brazilian butt lift results in Walnut Creek will gradually become more and more visible. It might take about six months for the enhancement to be fully visible.
If you have been dreaming of a more sculpted silhouette, we can help you make this dream a reality. We invite you to reach out and learn more about our Brazilian butt lift in Walnut Creek. Our compassionate team is ready to guide you on this transformative journey.
The incisions used for liposuction are approximately 3-4 millimeters in length and are hidden in inconspicuous areas to prevent them from being visible. The length of your procedure and type of anesthesia used will depend on the areas that we will be treating and will be discussed in your consultation.
