Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

Request Your Consultation

What Is BBL?

BBL is a procedure from MidAmerica Plastic Surgery that utilizes liposuction and fat grafting to create fuller, rounder buttocks.  During a consultation, Dr. Ryan Diederich will discuss all options available and help create a surgical plan to fit the individual goals and anatomy of each Brazilian butt lift patient from Maryville, Edwardsville, and the St. Louis area.

How Is BBL Completed?

During the procedure, Dr. Diederich performs liposuction to target areas of the body to minimize fullness. The fat removed during the liposuction is then processed and injected into the buttocks for shape and contour.

How Long To See Results?

Your results will slowly become apparent as the swelling and fluid retention reside. This could take several months or up to one year for swelling to fully resolve. With continued practices of healthy diet and fitness, the fatty tissue will be permanently adjusted.
