What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian butt lift is known as one of the fastest-growing treatments in the U.S. and is currently in widespread demand among both women and men. This butt enhancement surgery offers individuals an effective way to obtain rounder and shapelier buttocks without using an implant. Significant weight loss, aging, as well as hereditary characteristics can be the cause of a deflated butt. In today's times, a rounder, more voluptuous rear end is considered desirable. A fat transfer to the buttocks adds volume to the patient's buttocks area to create the wanted outcome. The process is achieved through a careful and precise fat grafting and transfer process, which utilizes liposuction to remove unwanted fat pockets from one area of your body and then injects it into your butt. It takes an artistic approach to perfecting this body contouring surgery and with many years of experience and training, Dr. Gloria Tumbaga is able to create natural-looking, gorgeous results at Wellness Diagnostics and Medispa in Temecula, CA.

Who is a candidate for a Brazilian butt lift?
If you are unhappy with the shape and size of your buttocks, if you have lost weight and have excess skin on your buttocks, or if you are self-conscious about your buttock appearance, you may be a good candidate for a Brazilian butt lift. The best way to find out is to schedule a BBL consultation with Dr. Tumbaga. We can evaluate the treatment area and discuss your overall cosmetic goals. Our team at Wellness Diagnostics can also provide before and after photographs of previous patients so you can better understand what to expect.
What Are the Benefits of a BBL?
Along with yielding a curvier, more appealing butt, a Brazilian butt lift in Temecula, CA gives you some great benefits, including:
- Cutting down on undesirable fat — Because a BBL harvests fat cells from other locations of your body to enhance the butt, you'll obtain the extra perk of cutting down on undesirable fat in the abdomen, legs, hips, and upper belly.
- Enhancing proportions — The enhancement to your butt with a Brazilian butt lift can help yield an enhanced shape, whether you just are looking for a fuller backside or an hourglass figure.
- Noticeable results — The benefits of a BBL are noticeable almost instantly.
- Safer option — As a BBL harvests your body's host fat, there is little chance of an adverse reaction when compared with synthetic fillers, ruptured implants, or complications from surgery.
- Natural feel and look — BBLs have a more organic look than synthetic fillers or implants.
How does a Brazilian Butt Lift work?
General anesthesia is used for a fat transfer surgery of this nature. It is an outpatient treatment and generally takes about 2 – 3 hours (it depends on the quantity of fat that is being extracted and transplanted). A form of liposuction will be performed first to extract fat from certain locations on the body, such as the thighs, flanks, and lower back. This method of fat extraction is performed precisely and safely. The fat tissue is never exposed to open air since it is purified in a sterile centrifuge system. After this process, high-quality fat tissue is carefully harvested and placed into syringes. Next is the injection phase where the harvested fat tissue is reinstated layer by layer, followed by a delicate massage to ensure the surface is even. This step is repeated multiple times until the desired shape has been attained.
What Should I Expect after My BBL?
After a Brazilian butt lift, you will be sent home to recover. Keep in mind there are two areas that need recovery time — where the fat was extracted and your augmented buttocks. In both places there will be bruising. Patients should try their best to not place extreme weight on the rear end for approximately two weeks after surgery. After the swelling has subsided, results can be seen, but in most cases the full outcome is seen in about 4 – 6 weeks. Your buttocks will look curvaceous and shapelier. Even better, the areas that had fat removal may make your result more dramatic if it was performed on the hips or lower back.
Brazilian Butt Lift Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a Brazilian butt lift cost?
Your total cost for a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) will include both fat transfer and liposuction, anesthesia, facility fees, as well as care before and after your surgery. When Dr. Tumbaga has developed your treatment plan, she will be better able to give you cost estimates. It's best to focus on choosing a medical doctor you trust, like Dr. Tumbaga, so we'll work with you to make your BBL easy to afford. Wellness Diagnostics and Medispa accepts several payment methods, and we can help you find low-interest financing.
How long will my results last?
While a small amount of fat may be reabsorbed by your body after your Brazilian butt lift, the majority of the fat cells will remain in their new location for a long time. To maintain your results, you need to keep your weight steady because significant weight gain or loss will compromise your BBL results. For this reason, Dr. Tumbaga suggests you be at or near a healthy, stable weight before your Brazilian butt lift — so it is easier for you to maintain.
Will a Brazilian butt lift remove loose skin?
While it's called a Brazilian butt lift, this name is a little confusing. This is because it is not really a butt lift, which eliminates loose and sagging skin from your butt. However, the extra volume added to your buttocks during a BBL may fill some of the loose skin. If you have moderate or severe excess skin in your butt, you may combine a gluteoplasty with a BBL. Dr. Tumbaga will go over your options depending on your goals and physical exam in your consultation.
Can I sit down after a Brazilian butt lift?
After a Brazilian butt lift, it is recommended to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for at least two weeks to ensure optimal results. Sitting can put pressure on the newly transferred fat cells, potentially affecting the success of the procedure. Dr. Tumbaga advises using a special pillow or cushion that allows you to sit without putting pressure on your buttocks, or lying on your side or stomach during the initial recovery period.
How soon can I exercise after a Brazilian butt lift?
Dr. Tumbaga typically recommends that patients refrain from any strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for at least four to six weeks following a Brazilian butt lift. Gradually, you can return to your normal exercise routine, but it's important to follow Dr. Tumbaga's specific post-operative instructions to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
Are there any risks or complications associated with a Brazilian butt lift?
As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications associated with a Brazilian butt lift. These can include infection, bleeding, asymmetry, fat embolism, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. Dr. Tumbaga takes extensive precautions to minimize these risks, such as using advanced techniques and ensuring a sterile surgical environment. During your consultation at Wellness Diagnostics and Medispa, Dr. Tumbaga will discuss all potential risks and complications in detail and provide you with thorough pre-and post-operative care instructions to promote a safe and successful outcome.
