What is buttock lipofilling?

Buttock lipofilling isa cosmetic surgery procedure that involves increasing thevolume of the buttocks byinjecting fat. The fat used in the procedure is harvested from otherareas of the patient's body.

This is the most natural procedure forincreasing buttock volume, since it does not involve anyforeign materials.

Why choose lipofilling?

Everywoman’s buttockshaveauniqueshape; no two pairs are alike. They naturally take on a rounded, square, or rather flat shape and can be more or less subtle or prominent. The shape of the buttocks changes with age (due to skin aging) and fluctuations in weight.

Women who want to change the appearance of their buttocks are most often seeking harmony with the rest of their bodies. They may also want to have larger buttocks, as is the case withbreast augmentation, for example. 

What are the goals of buttock lipofilling?

Buttock lipofilling is intended to:

  • Add volume to the buttocks;
  • Redesign the area;
  • Lift the skin on the buttocks;
  • To create harmony with the patient's figure and personality.

This is the most natural method because it does not require the use of prosthetics.

Lipofilling or lipomodeling of the buttocks (also known asBBL surgery—Brazilian Butt Lift) is a cutting-edge technique that is attracting more and more women.

This 100% natural method leaves no visible scars.

Buttock Lipofilling Surgery

Lipofilling, which is also performed on the face and other parts of the body, involves transferring fat cells from one area of the body to another.

During buttock lipomodeling, the surgeon removes fat cells from one or more areas of the body where there is excess fat. Generally, patients request that excess fat be removed from the abdomen, knees, or thighs (saddlebags).

This excess fat is then purified and reinjected into the buttocks.

In this regard, buttock lipofilling allows forliposuction(or liposuction) to be performed at the same time.

What are the benefits of a BBL—buttock lipofilling?

BBL definition:Brazilian Butt Lift—the BBL issimply a buttock fat transfer!

Buttock lipofilling improves the appearance of the buttocks and, as a result, boosts self-confidence. A person who is uncomfortable with their body can see their self-image radically transformed by buttock lipofilling.

Dr. Delobaux, a surgeon specializing in buttock lipofilling, has helped many women regain their self-confidence through buttock lipofilling.

The main advantage of a BBL is that it does not involve the use of any foreign materials. Therefore, increasing buttock volume carries no risk of rejection. The risk of infection is also very low.

Are you a good candidate for buttock lipofilling—a BBL in Paris?

Buttock lipofilling is intended for women who wish to:

  • Increase the volume of their buttocks;
  • Change the shape of their buttocks (rounder, fuller, etc.);
  • Lift the skin on the buttocks.

Before considering this procedure, you must be sure that you have sufficient areas of fat accumulation (abdomen, hips, thighs, saddlebags, knees, etc.).

An initial consultation with Dr. DELOBAUX will help you determine whether you are an ideal candidate for the procedure.

Buttock Lipofilling in Paris: Preoperative Consultations

Before undergoing aBBL in Paris, two preoperative consultations are required.

They take place as follows:

  • You will discuss your wishes and expectations with Dr. Delobaux.
  • Conducting a thorough clinical examination: determining the amount of fat needed, as well as the areas from which it can be harvested.
  • Body Assessment: Tailoring the surgical technique to your body type and expectations.
  • Assessment of skin quality: predicting wound healing quality.
  • Advice from your plastic surgeon and a detailed plan for your procedure: the areas to be treated and the amount of fat to be removed and injected.
  • We'll take photos and simulate the results so you can visualize the final look.

The Procedure for Buttock Lipofilling

Buttock lipofilling takes 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours.

On the day of the procedure, the surgeon will make the markings that will guide him throughout the surgery. During this time, you’ll be able to discuss the details of the procedure.

The medical team (anesthesiologist) and paramedical staff will then accompany you to the operating room.

You will be placed under general anesthesia. Your plastic surgeon will then make small incisions, a few millimeters long, to begin injecting a saline solution containing epinephrine. This solution reduces bleeding and makes you more comfortable when you wake up.

Phase 1: Liposuction

The surgeon inserts the ultrasound probe under the skin, into the deep and superficial fat layers. The probe liquefies the fat, making it easier to remove and facilitating the skin tightening process.

Next, the fat is gently and non-invasively suctioned out using a cannula.

The use of ultrasound significantly reduces swelling, bruising, and bleeding compared to traditional liposuction.

Phase 2: Fat Injection

The fat is then purified and separated from the blood and other fluids.

Finally, the surgeon injects the fat harvestedfrom the buttocksto increase their volume. He finishes by sculpting the buttocks to give them a harmonious shape.

The final results are visible between the third and sixth months.

Any weight gain will affect the results. It is therefore important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to avoid significant weight fluctuations.

Dr. Delobaux performs ultrasound-guided fat injections to ensure the safest possible procedure and optimize fat distribution.

Buttock Lift Using Lipofilling: Aftercare

You will wake up in the recovery room. You will already be wearing compression underwear, which you will need to wear for 6 to 8 weeks. You will be discharged from the hospital that same evening or the following morning.

Pain medication helps relieve initial postoperative pain. You should ask for it as soon as you experience any pain. This pain may last for several days, but you will have the necessary pain medication to manage it.

You can take a shower the very next day.

A dressing should be applied to the incisions every morning for 10 days to prevent any friction with the panties.

When you return home, you’ll need to rest completely and avoid any physical exertion for two weeks. Similarly, it’s recommended that you take about two weeks off from work.

Physical activity may resume after 1 month. Smoking and sun exposure should be avoided. Anticoagulants must be taken for at least 1 week.

You will need to attend several follow-up appointments with your surgeon.

The results of buttock lipofilling

Buttock lipofillingproduces immediately visible results, but these results are not permanent until three to six months have passed. The buttocks appear rounder, more shapely, and firmer.

About 30% of the injected fat volume is lost in the weeks following the procedure. That is why a second procedure, performed six months later, is common.

Once the fat graft has fully settled in, it is permanent.

Fat cells are living tissue. When you gain orlose weight, it’s normal for your buttocks to increase or decrease in size. If you want to maintain the results of yourBBL—Brazilian butt lift—it’s essential to maintain astable weight.

  • You should avoid lying on your back during the first week after the procedure.

    It is recommended to sleep on your stomach to allow the buttocks to expand freely.

  • There are very few complications associated with buttock lipofilling.

    The major risks are phlebitis and fat embolism. To prevent venous thrombosis, it is recommended to wear compression stockings and receive anticoagulant injections.

    Risk of infection: Infections are prevented by administering antibiotics for one week.

    The risk of anemia: It is prevented by taking iron supplements in patients with low hemoglobin levels.

  • Follow-up begins that same evening. Follow-up visits are then scheduled for the next morning, on the 15th day after surgery, at 3 months post-surgery, and at 6 months.

    If any unusual symptoms occur (pain, redness, swelling), the patient is monitored closely.

    Lifetime follow-up is not necessary.

  • Yes, it is possible to do so if there is sufficient fatty tissue available.

    When a patient wishes to maximize the increase in buttock volume, she should mention this as soon as possible so that the number of areas from which fat will be harvested during each lipofilling session can be determined in advance.

    For example, schedule fat removal from the love handles for the first session, then the abdomen for the second session, and the inner thighs for the third session.

  • Yes, it is possible to combine buttock lipofilling with other surgical procedures. It all depends on each patient’s weight and the amount of liposuction to be performed.

    Most often, procedures performed in conjunction with lipofilling include: breast lipofilling, breast implant placement, breast lift, or tummy tuck.

  • During the consultation, Dr. Alexis Delobaux assesses the amount of fat tissue that can be transferred to each buttock.

    If the volume is insufficient (less than 400 to 500 ml of purified fat per buttock), the doctor will ask you to gain 2 to 4 kilograms before the procedure.

    If weight gain is desired, all excess fat tissue will be removed by liposuction.

    If it is impossible to gain weight, it is best to consider buttock implants.

  • Other procedures to increase buttock volume include:

    Buttock implants:

    Buttock implant surgery helps create a rounded buttocks and sculpt the buttocks area. This procedure is primarily intended for slender patients who want to achieve a fuller buttocks and a significant increase in buttock volume.

    Hyacorp injections:

    Hyacorp, or hyaluronic acid, is intended for use on the body, not the face. It helps add shape and volume to the buttocks.

    These injections are administered under local anesthesia at the doctor's office.

    Patients who do not wish to undergo surgery may opt for this technique.

    Patients who do not have fat reserves can also undergo this procedure.

  • It is the areas where liposuction was performed that are painful and require pain medication to relieve the pain.

    If pain relievers are taken as prescribed by Dr. Alexis Delobaux, and as soon as the first signs of pain appear, there is virtually no pain after buttock lipofilling.

  • The risks are virtually nonexistent.

    The main risk is developing phlebitis, but this is very rare.

    To prevent this, wearing compression stockings and taking daily anticoagulant injections are essential for at least 2 weeks.

  • Exercise should be resumed gradually and should not include cardio exercises.

    Stretching, arm and leg strength training, brisk walking, and light jogging are exercises you can resume after 2 to 3 weeks.

  • Liposuction cannulas are perforated in several places to ensure that the fat is fine and fluid.

    The vacuum's suction is limited to prevent damage to fat cells.

    Fat cells are purified through decantation.

    The injections are administered using microcannulas to deposit the fat cells in the form of droplets.

    The injections are administered in the form of a multi-layered grid in the superficial, middle, deep, and very deep layers.
