The buttocks are a part of the body that has had a lot of attention in the media lately. Whether a photograph in a magazine or a shapely actress or entertainer, the buttocks are a part of the body where great shape matters.
However, the buttocks are not easily enlarged by weight training or diet. Individuals who wish to enlarge, lift, and shape their buttock mounds have two main cosmetic procedures: buttock implants or Brazilian butt lift, also referred to as BBL surgery.
At Associates in Plastic Surgery, our plastic surgeons have decades of experience in cosmetic surgery procedures for the body, such as buttock augmentation, and can help you love your new backside.
A physician at Associates in Plastic Surgery in New Jersey would be pleased to discuss options for enhancing your buttocks during an initial consultation. Please call 732-548-3200 today.
What Is A Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian butt lift surgery is an outpatient fat transfer procedure for buttock enhancement performed under general anesthesia. It begins with a liposuction procedure where a predetermined amount of fat is taken from donor areas of the patient’s own body where it is unwanted, such as the lower back, hips, belly, or thighs. It is then purified and sterilized for fat transfer. The harvested excess fat is then injected into the buttocks to add more volume for a firmer and rounder appearance. The remaining fat cells are frozen and can be used for injections at a later date should you desire them.
What Is A Buttock Threadlift?
The Buttock Threadlift is a quick and simple procedure that can be done while the patient is awake. Under local anesthesia, long stitches are placed through a tiny incision on each side that grabs the buttock tissue and lifts it.
After three months, the small incision can be reopened, and the stitches tightened further to provide a long-term result. Recovery and pain are minimal after this procedure.

FAQs About Butt Augmentation
Can I combine any other procedures with Brazilian Butt Lift?
Yes, in fact, many of our patients choose to combine BBL surgery with other body contouring procedures such as tummy tuck, breast augmentation, or included as part of a mommy makeover.
What’s the difference between a BBL, buttock implants, and a buttock lift?
Although often mistaken for the same procedure, these three procedures bear important distinctions. A BBL is a surgical procedure that enhances the volume and shape of the butt using injected fat taken from a donor area. In contrast, buttock augmentation with butt implants uses silicone implants to shape the buttocks. A butt lift doesn’t add any volume but removes excess fat and skin and repositions the remaining skin for a more toned appearance.1
