Enhance your curves and sculpt a balanced silhouette with a Brazilian butt lift in Bethesda. Dr. Kasandra Dassoulas uses advanced fat transfer techniques to address flatness, asymmetry, or volume loss, creating natural-looking, lasting results tailored to your body’s proportions.
Sculpt a Fuller, Balanced Lower Body
A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a specialized cosmetic surgery that enhances the size, shape, and contour of your buttocks using your own fat. Dr. Dassoulas performs this procedure by removing excess fat from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs through liposuction, purifying it, and strategically injecting it into the buttocks. This dual benefit not only adds volume and lift to the buttocks but also slims the donor areas, creating a more harmonious and sculpted overall silhouette without the use of implants.
Brazilian Butt Lift Treats:
- Flat or under-projected buttocks lacking volume or shape
- Asymmetrical buttock contours that affect balance and proportion
- Sagging or drooping due to aging, weight loss, or pregnancy
- Stubborn fat deposits in areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs
- Lack of natural curves despite diet and exercise efforts
- Changes in buttock shape or size from significant weight fluctuations
Bonus: Sculpt Areas With Excess Fat
A Brazilian butt lift not only enhances your buttocks but also offers the added benefit of contouring other areas of your body. Since the procedure requires fat transfer, Dr. Dassoulas begins by harvesting excess fat from donor sites such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or lower back. This step is essential for creating the natural, fuller shape you desire in the buttocks.
Because fat removal is done through precise liposuction, these donor areas are slimmed and refined in the process. The result is a more balanced, proportionate figure: narrower waistlines, sleeker thighs, and smoother transitions between curves. This “two-in-one” benefit makes a Brazilian butt lift in Bethesda a powerful solution for achieving both enhancement and slimming, helping you enjoy a harmoniously sculpted silhouette from multiple angles.
Benefits of Brazilian Butt Lift:
- Enhances buttock volume and shape using your body’s own fat
- Creates natural-looking, soft results without implants
- Slims and contours donor areas through targeted liposuction
- Improves overall body proportions and balance
- Reduces the risk of allergic reaction or implant-related complications
- Offers long-lasting results when paired with a stable weight
- Enhances clothing fit and boosts self-confidence
Your Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery
Your Brazilian butt lift begins with Dr. Dassoulas mapping the donor areas for fat removal and the specific zones of your buttocks for augmentation. After anesthesia is administered, she uses a thin, hollow instrument called a cannula to perform liposuction through tiny incisions in donor sites like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, or lower back. These techniques help remove fat while also reshaping those areas to improve your body’s proportions.
The extracted fat is then carefully processed using sterile techniques to filter out blood, oil, and fluids, leaving only healthy fat cells. This purification process is essential to maximize the survival of the grafted fat cells. Dr. Dassoulas then re-injects the purified fat into multiple layers of the buttocks, both deep within the muscle and in the subcutaneous tissue, using small, highly precise passes to ensure smooth distribution and avoid any irregularities.
Dr. Dassoulas uses a meticulous, three-dimensional approach to sculpt projection, roundness, and symmetry that complements your natural curves. This careful technique not only enhances the buttocks but also creates a seamless transition between the lower back, hips, and thighs. The result is a refined, balanced silhouette that looks proportionate and natural.
Recovery After Brazilian Butt Lift
You can expect swelling, bruising, and soreness in both the buttocks and the donor areas where liposuction was performed. Dr. Dassoulas provides detailed aftercare instructions, which may include wearing compression garments to reduce swelling, avoiding sitting on your buttocks for at least 2 to 3 weeks, and using special cushions when seated. Most patients resume light activities within 1 to 2 weeks, while strenuous exercise is typically delayed for 4 to 6 weeks.
Your initial shape will be visible once swelling subsides, but it can take 3 to 6 months for the transferred fat to fully settle and reveal your final contour. With stable weight, the results can last for many years, as the surviving fat cells remain in place permanently. Dr. Dassoulas also offers post-operative laser scar treatments to help your incisions heal with minimal visibility.
