A well-defined, proportionate backside is an important part of a strong, athletic male physique. However, age, genetics, and weight fluctuations can make it difficult to achieve the shape you want through exercise alone. For men seeking enhanced definition and balance, buttocks reshaping with a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) may be the solution. At Shifrin Plastic Surgery in Chicago, Dr. David Shifrin specializes in male BBL procedures that add natural volume and improve proportions, helping men achieve a fit, masculine silhouette. We are committed to delivering the most natural-looking and customized BBL results Chicago has to offer.
To enhance the size and contour of the buttocks without the use of implants, a BBL can be performed.
Dr. Shifrin will perform liposuction using a small tube called a cannula that is attached to a vacuum. Extra fat cells will be removed from locations where they commonly gather, such as your tummy, hips, lower back, and thighs.
After that, the fat is cleaned, removed from the fluid, and placed into a syringe for transfer. Your doctor will then precisely inject the fat into the buttocks to improve their form and size. In rare situations, a portion of the transplanted fat may not respond to the relocation, therefore surgeons may inject more than is required to guarantee that the outcomes satisfy your expectations and goals. If the bulk of the cells die, regrafting may be required in the future and can be determined during follow-up appointments with Dr. Shifrin.
Recovery after buttocks surgery calls for some unique adjustments. For the next two weeks, you must avoid resting your buttocks on the seat or floor.
All action, including going to the bathroom, must be performed while lying on your stomach or side. After around eight weeks, Dr. Shifrin will let you return to your normal seated activities. Most of our Chicago BBL patients may go back to work 10-14 days following the procedure if they take it easy for the first week.
The effects of a BBL are designed to be permanent. Liposuction removes fat cells permanently, and those that make the journey to the buttocks will stay there for good.
Though dramatic weight swings might distort your results, staying at a consistent weight can help you appear your best at all times. Within six months of BBL surgery, all swelling and bruises have gone down, and you’re feeling 100%; you may expect to see your final results. By now, your better lower body proportions and curvier buttocks will be reflected in your appearance and the way clothes fit.
