BBL, Brazillian Butt Lift (buttock lipofling) is an operation aimed at correcting the shape of the buttocks.

The course of the operation and the postoperative period
The operation lasts from three to five hours, is performed under general anesthesia. During the operation, excess fat deposits are removed in problem areas, and lipofilling of the subcutaneous fat layer in the buttocks area is performed under ultrasound control. Incisions are usually located in the natural folds of the body and are about 5 mm wide; six months after the operation, the scars are practically invisible.
Pain syndrome is usually not expressed after buttock lipofilling: the patient does not feel discomfort at rest.
For a month after the operation, the patient will need to wear compression underwear around the clock, and it will also be impossible to put pressure on the lipofilling area. About two months after the operation, it will be necessary to limit physical activity.
After two months after the operation, it is necessary to begin light physical exercises gradually increasing the load. This is important to maintain and even improve the postoperative result.
