A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) produces a fuller, more shapely backside, without the visible scars associated with other body contouring procedures. The BBL is a popular choice, but patients often want to know what an enhanced derriere will cost them.
In this blog, we’ll look at the cost of a Brazilian buttock lift, including factors that may affect the price and the services included with this treatment.
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?
A Brazilian Butt Lift starts with liposuction to remove unwanted fat from targeted areas, such as the flanks, abdomen, or thighs. The harvested fat is purified and prepared for fat transfer into the buttocks, where it adds curves and volume. Once the fat stabilizes in its new location, the results are very long-lasting. Patients enjoy the enhancement without concern about visible scarring on the buttocks, since fat is grafted via injections instead of incisions.
What is the Average Cost for a Brazilian Butt Lift?
The national average cost for BBL surgery ranges from $8,000 to $16,000. In Florida, that average is slightly lower, ranging from around $7,000 to $10,000, with areas like Miami tending to run much higher. The wide discrepancy is due to various factors that can affect BBL costs, such as your surgeon’s experience, where the procedure is performed, and whether other treatments will be performed at the same time.
Factors That Influence the Cost of Your BBL
A Brazilian buttock lift is a highly customizable procedure tailored to each patient’s unique needs and goals. These variations can dramatically impact the cost of your procedure. Some of those factors include:
Complexity of Your Procedure
Liposuction may involve a single area or multiple areas, depending on the amount of fat available and the patient’s desired results. More treatment areas mean a higher overall cost for your BBL. However, since liposuction provides dramatic, long-lasting results, the additional cost of treating multiple areas may yield significant value.
Size of Treatment Area
When injecting fat into larger treatment areas, such as the buttocks, more fat must be removed and purified, which increases costs. The actual amount of fat needed may also vary based on how much volume you want added to the buttocks. Since the fat is placed in the treatment area in layers, the time required to complete the fat transfer process varies, which affects the final cost.
Experience and Expertise of Your Surgeon
The majority of a BBL cost consists of your surgeon’s fee, and more experienced surgeons tend to charge more for their services. Since liposuction and fat grafting are both technical procedures that require a great deal of skill and precision to perform correctly. Working with a surgeon who is an expert in these treatments is more likely to yield an optimal outcome, making them worth the additional cost.
Additional Procedures Performed
Patients may opt to combine their Brazilian buttock lift with other procedures, like breast augmentation or a Mommy Makeover. Adding procedures will increase the cost but allow patients to meet their aesthetic goals in a single anesthesia session and a single recovery.
