Same results, no surgery, no downtime…no brainer!

One of the most popular cosmetic procedures in recent years has been the butt lift, more commonly known as the Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL). While this is considered the “go to” procedure it often is not the right choice for everyone. This surgical treatment requires the person to have enough fat to be transferred from one area of the body to the buttocks. Those who may not have enough fat still have an option thanks to the Sculptra butt lift.

As we age our body loses volume in all areas causing everything to start sagging or drooping, one of these things being the butt. There are multiple options available to help reverse the signs of aging, the least invasive of the options is Sculptra. With this treatment, you can enhance your backside without the extra fat required as with the surgical option. Sculptra is a filler made from poly-l-lactic acid that is injected just beneath the surface of the buttocks to add volume to the backside. When injected into the body, the main ingredient encourages the production of collagen, which in turn helps restore the lost volume.

Sculptra butt lift is a non-surgical option available to all patients looking to improve the appearance of their buttocks. It is also customizable according to your specific body contouring goals. Sculptra butt lift takes about 30 minutes to preform depending on what the desired results are and how much product is needed. How many vials are needed also depends on the roundness that you are starting with to how defined you want your results to be. A typical number is about 10 vials per cheek. The procedure is virtually pain free as you will have a topical numbing cream applied 30 minutes before the procedure. The results will be slightly visible post procedure, but effects will appear gradually over the next six weeks. Some patients will need 2-3 sessions about a month apart depending on their desired results. Patients will be able to return to work and resume other activities the next day.

Unlike Sculptra the Brazilian Butt Lift is a two-part procedure that involves liposuction and injections. The surgeon first uses liposuction to remove the donor fat from one area of the body and then proceeds to inject the removed fat into the buttocks. The entire process takes from 1 to up to 4 hours while under general anesthesia. With the BBL you will need to take up to two weeks off from work as well as be very conscious about how you sit while trying to avoid putting weight on your buttocks.

There are many factors to consider when deciding between the Sculptra butt lift and a surgical Brazilian Butt Lift. Both procedures can give you the backside you want, but at what cost? Do you have 2 weeks to take off work? Do you want to have 2 surgical procedures done when the same result can be achieved with a few injections?
