During the BBL procedure, the surgeon uses liposuction to remove excess fat from donor areas of the body. The fat is then processed to remove impurities and excess fluids. The processed fat is then carefully injected into the buttocks to create the desired shape and size.

BBL surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and requires a recovery period of several weeks. Patients may experience some pain, swelling, and bruising after the surgery, and will need to avoid sitting or lying directly on the buttocks for several weeks to allow the transferred fat to settle.

As with any surgical procedure, BBL comes with potential risks and complications, including bleeding, infection, asymmetry, fat necrosis, and changes in sensation. It is important to discuss the potential risks and benefits of the procedure with a qualified plastic surgeon before deciding whether BBL surgery is right for you.
