Brazilian Butt Lift: The Latest Plastic Surgery Option For Buttock Augmentation
Brazilian butt lifts are a recent innovation in plastic surgery that permits buttock augmentation as well as the removal of excess fat from the abdominal area and refinement of the waist and hips. For those contemplating this body enhancing procedure, it is essential to understand exactly what is involved in the procedure from start to finish. Here, we consider the entire process from pre-operative doctor's appointments to post-op care.
1) Pre-Operative Considerations
Before beginning any plastic surgery procedure, patients meet with their surgeon to consider realistic expectations and plan specifics, including where scars will be placed and where fat will be removed before using it to sculpt the new, beautifully lifted rear end. The anesthesiologist may also be involved in this initial consultation in order to determine the appropriate amount of anesthesia and direct the patient regarding pre-operative procedures such as fasting before surgery.
2) The Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure
The day of the procedure, the patient is properly anesthetized and positioned by the surgeon on the operating table. The surgeon may draw the surgical plan on the patient before or after starting anesthesia, depending upon the situation. In either case, the plan will be that agreed upon by the patient and surgeon during the pre-operative consultation.
Next, liposuction is used to remove excess fat from the hips, abdomen, and waist. The fluid used in this liposuction procedure is separated from the healthy fat tissue that was removed. This healthy tissue is then prepared for reinsertion in the rear as part of the sculpting process. The surgeon must next excise the insertion pocket in preparation for the sculpting procedure. Once prepared, the healthy fat tissue previously removed during liposuction is carefully inserted into the pocket. This new tissue is molded and sculpted into place in order to create the desired shape. Finally, the insertion areas are closed with surgical sutures.
3) Recovery
Following the operation, the patient is allowed to rest as the anesthesia wears off. The surgeon may examine the operated areas once again in order to ensure proper healing. The patient is then instructed on how to best care for their wounds in order to ensure rapid and full recovery. Generally, patients are advised to avoid strenuous movements for up to a month after surgery. Following this advice, the patient returns home to recover.
4) Post-Operative Care
Once at home, the patient will use a compression suit in order to counteract the effect of post-operative swelling. Patients may also opt to include massages in their recovery plans in order to help the healing processes, reduce swelling, and avoid excess or stretched out skin following surgery. The surgeon may schedule a post-operative visit, or visits, at regular intervals after surgery in order to monitor the patient's recovery.
The End Result
Following surgery and recovery, patients are overwhelmingly pleased with the result. Most patients are extremely happy with the reduction of their waist, the removal of fat from the abdominal area, and the pleasantly sculpted and lifted derrire that accents their natural curves.
