Brazilian Butt Lift in Tampa, FL

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to enhance the shape and size of the buttocks through advanced fat harvesting techniques. This body contouring method provides patients with a more sculpted and proportionate figure.

Procedure Overview

The Brazilian Butt Lift is performed in an operating room under general anesthesia. Dr. Politis utilizes a precise approach involving two key steps:

• Liposuction to remove excess fat from areas like hips, lower back, thighs, and abdomen
• Purification and strategic injection of harvested fat into the buttocks to create desired shape and volume

Recovery Expectations

Patients can anticipate a comprehensive recovery process with several important considerations:

• Temporary discomfort, soreness, and numbness in treated areas
• Maximum discomfort concentrated in the first few days
• Bruising potentially lasting up to 6 weeks
• Gradual reduction in swelling over 3-6 months

Recovery Guidelines

To ensure optimal healing, patients should:

• Avoid excessive activity in the immediate post-operative period
• Expect potential clothing tightness for the first 1-2 months
• Understand that final contour may take 3-6 months to stabilize

Pre-Operative Instructions

Preparation is crucial for a successful Brazilian Butt Lift. Key pre-op recommendations include:

• Fill prescriptions prior to surgery
• Discontinue specific medications like Aspirin and Ibuprofen 14 days before procedure
• Begin stool softener one day before surgery
• Avoid shaving surgical sites within 2 days of procedure

Post-Operative Care

Following surgery, patients should:

• Wait 24-48 hours before showering
• Keep incisions clean and monitor for infection
• Protect surgical scars from sun exposure
• Use strong sunblock if sun exposure is unavoidable

Long-Term Results

Brazilian Butt Lift results are long-lasting when patients maintain a healthy lifestyle and stable weight. Patients can expect continued improvement in body contour over several months.
