Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian Butt Lift uses your own fat (harvested via liposuction) to enhance the shape and volume of your buttocks for a natural-looking result.
What Patients Say
Is Brazilian Butt Lift Right for You?
Answer a few quick questions to see if brazilian butt lift could be a good fit for you — or take the full Renewal Assessment for a comprehensive treatment plan.
What to Expect
A Brazilian Butt Lift creates natural curves using your own body fat. Dr. McGovern harvests fat from unwanted areas and artfully transfers it to your buttocks for a fuller, rounder shape.
Ideal Candidates
Patients wanting fuller, rounder buttocks who have sufficient donor fat available and are at a stable weight.
The Consultation
Dr. McGovern will evaluate your donor sites, discuss desired shape and projection, and explain the fat transfer process.
The Procedure
Fat is harvested via liposuction, purified, then strategically injected into the buttocks. Takes 3-4 hours.
Recovery
Avoid sitting directly on buttocks for 2-3 weeks. Sleep on stomach. 60-80% of transferred fat survives permanently.
Artistry Meets Precision
Dr. McGovern prioritizes both safety and aesthetics in her BBL technique. She uses precise fat harvesting and purification to maximize fat cell survival.
Her artistic eye creates natural, proportionate curves — sculpting both the donor sites and buttocks for a harmonious overall silhouette.
Plan Your Downtime
Fat transfer has two recovery stories running at once — the donor site where fat was harvested, and the recipient site where it was injected.
Both sites settle in
The area of fat injection will be swollen and tender, and you may have some bruising. A small donor area requires no specific treatment. If the donor site is larger, tape may have been placed over the suctioned area.
