The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) or Ultrasound-guided BBL is one of the most sought-after procedures for individuals looking to enhance their curves. However, traditional BBLs have come under scrutiny for safety concerns.
At the Pennsylvania Centre for Plastic Surgery, Dr. Brenman utilizes cutting-edge ultrasound-guided techniques to ensure the procedure is both safe and effective. By using real-time imaging, Dr. Brenman can precisely inject fat into targeted areas while avoiding critical structures, significantly reducing risks.
What Is an Ultrasound-Guided BBL?
Unlike the conventional BBL, ultrasound guidance uses advanced imaging technology to monitor the placement of fat injections. This added precision minimizes complications, ensuring that fat is only placed in safe layers of the tissue. By doing so, patients experience better fat retention and longer-lasting results.
Benefits of an Ultrasound-Guided BBL
- Enhanced Safety: With real-time visualization, the risk of accidental fat embolism is significantly reduced.
- Precise Fat Placement: Achieve natural-looking curves tailored to your body’s unique proportions.
- Better Fat Retention: Targeted injections lead to improved fat survival, meaning fewer follow-up procedures.
The Procedure: What to Expect
The ultrasound-guided BBL starts with liposuction to harvest fat from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, or flanks. After purifying the fat, Dr. Brenman uses ultrasound imaging to guide the injections into your buttocks. The entire procedure typically takes around 3-4 hours. Most patients experience some swelling and bruising, but recovery is generally quicker due to the minimally invasive nature of the procedure.
Recovery and Results
Patients are advised to wear a compression garment for a few weeks post-surgery to help reduce swelling and support healing. Results are visible almost immediately but will continue to improve as the swelling subsides over the next few months. The combination of precise fat placement and the use of your own body fat leads to natural, long-lasting results.
