Brazilian Butt Lift surgery can last anywhere from one to two hours, depending on the modifications necessary and the patient’s unique physiology. To begin the procedure, fat is removed to be transferred from the waist, abdomen or inner thighs. Your own body fat is the most apt, natural body material to shape the butt in a 3-dimensional way and least likely material or substance to be rejected by your body.

The removal if performed using liposuction. During liposuction, the surgeon makes very small incisions in the skin and inserts very small tubes called cannulas into the incisions. The surgeon then removes dislodged fat through the cannulas. Once the fat is removed, the fat cells are purified and then injected into the buttocks through small incisions and cannulas. The amount of deposits of fat and the locations is dependent on your desired results.
