Brazilian Butt Lift - Orange County - IrvineIt’s no secret that the butt is the It body part of 2015 – and it’s not going away anytime soon.  Pop culture, Hollywood, and even fashion have sung the praises of the “booty”, which is why so many women are now looking to enhance their backside curves with a Brazilian butt lift.

What is the Brazilian Butt Lift?

This hot new procedure is growing by leaps and bounds, thanks in part to society’s new obsession with the booty.  However, you don’t have to want to go bigger to enjoy this procedure.  While the Brazilian butt lift is known for increasing the size of the buttocks, one of its lesser-known benefits includes reshaping for more pronounced curves.

For those patients who are looking for Kardashian-style booty or a J.Lo-worthy backside, it’s time to visit Kyle Song, MD at Song Plastic Surgery in Irvine, California.  Serving the greater Orange County area, Song Plastic Surgery provides the most innovative treatment for patients looking for size and/or reshaping.  Whether you’re looking for a bigger butt or a better shape, here’s what you need to know about the Brazilian butt lift.

Augmentation or Reshaping?

Brazilian butt lifts produce natural-looking results because the buttocks are enhanced with your own fat.  The fat is collected via liposuction of the hips, abdomen, or any other problem areas within the body.  Once the fat has been collected, it’s separated and processed before being injected into the buttocks.  This is one of the primary reasons why Brazilian butt lifts are so popular – you can enhance the look of your buttocks, while contouring your biggest trouble spots!

Before undergoing the procedure, you and Dr. Song will discuss whether you’d like to augment or reshape your buttocks.  If you’re looking to enhance your backside, Dr. Song can inject and shape the fat to achieve your desired results.  Should you want more shapely and pronounced buttocks without increasing volume, Dr. Song can use fat grafting procedures to highlight your curves while providing you with more shape. Because the Brazilian butt lift uses your own fatty tissue, the results can be permanent.  However, patients can expect to lose some fat (and thus, volume) as they age.

Whether you want to enjoy a more shapely or enhanced backside, schedule a consultation at Song Plastic Surgery in Irvine, California today. Call Song Plastic Surgery in Orange County at (949) 701-4454 for more information.

The Double Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift

Brazilian Butt Lift - Orange County - Irvine

There’s no denying that shapely butts are all the rage in the fashion and entertainment worlds.  Heralded by voluptuous celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez, a round and shapely butt represents the height of attractiveness for many individuals.  Unfortunately, not everyone is blessed with the kind of butt that could grace the cover of OK! Magazine…

But that doesn’t mean you can’t get one.

At Song Plastic Surgery in Irvine, California (also serving the greater Orange County areas), Kyle R Song, MD is proud to announce the addition of the Brazilian butt lift to his menu of plastic surgery procedures.  The Brazilian butt lift is a unique and increasingly popular procedure that takes fatty tissue from one part of the patient’s body and injects it into the buttocks.  The fat transfer creates a natural-looking and shapely butt, which will turn heads wherever you go.

The Brazilian butt lift is also a popular plastic surgery procedure because it offers double benefits: 1) Liposuction performed on unwanted fat, and 2) The result of shapely and voluptuous buttocks.  If you love the benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift, then take a look at what happens during the surgery:

• During your initial consultation with Dr. Song, you’ll usually decide where you’d like the liposuction to be performed.  Popular areas for fat transfers include the waist, hips, and stomach.  This can create a more whittled appearance, which is further heightened by a shapely butt.  Once the fat is removed, it will go through a purification stage to ensure that you experience the best results possible.

• Once the fat has been purified, Dr. Song will inject the fat into various locations to achieve your desired results.  Patients should note that swelling and bruising can occur directly after a Brazilian butt lift, as the body is working to absorb the newly injected fat.  The swelling will go down (only 60-80% of the injected fat will remain), thus revealing your shapely new bottom.

During your consultation with Dr. Song, be sure to provide specific examples as to the size and shape of your desired results.  The more specific you are, the more likely it is that Dr. Song will be able to meet your demands.

The Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift vs. Butt Implants

Brazilian Butt Lift in Orange County at Song Plastic Surgery

If you’re looking to achieve a more curvaceous rear end, you might be pondering the benefits of a Brazilian butt lift versus butt implants.  Each can help you achieve a fuller bottom – but which treatment option is better for achieving a natural-looking rear that will make you look as though you were born with it? Learn the benefits of a Brazilian butt lift, and call Dr. Kyle Song if you are living in Irvine or Orange County and would like to schedule a consultation to see if this plastic surgery procedure is right for you.

The Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift

The answer is clear: a Brazilian butt lift is far superior to traditional butt implants.  A Brazilian butt lift procedure utilizes natural fat tissues from your body to augment the shape of your rear via injections, not from implantation.  This procedure is known as fat grafting, which is an ideal way for getting a natural shape by using the body’s own fat deposits.

One of the biggest benefits of a Brazilian butt lift is that you can achieve a shapely rear while minimizing the appearance of your hip-to-waist ratio.  During the Brazilian butt lift procedure, your cosmetic surgeon will sculpt your abdomen, waistline, lower back, and thighs with liposuction, and once the fat has been removed, it will be processed and purified to inject into your bottom via small 4 millimeter incisions. This process produces a more natural look that requires less recovery time than a traditional butt lift.

Butt implants are made up of artificial materials, which resemble the materials used in breast implants.  While these implants generally resemble a natural appearance, they fail to live up to the appearance produced by a Brazilian butt lift.  What’s more, butt implants involve a more invasive surgical procedure as well as extensive downtime.  Finally, butt implants leave telltale surgical scars, which can undermine the appearance of natural-looking buttocks.

One of the biggest drawbacks of butt implants is that they can often increase the overall size of the patient.  A Brazilian butt lift reduces the waist size while increasing the buttocks; however, butt implants simply increase the buttocks without minimizing any other part of the body.  This can make the patient appear heavier or disproportionate, which is an obvious sign that surgical procedures have been performed.
