WHAT DOES IT INVOLVE?

Your own fat,
sculpted by planes.

The BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) combines two procedures in one: first, 360° liposculpture extracts fat from the abdomen, flanks and back to define your contour; then that fat is purified and grafted by planes into the buttocks to create shape and projection.

At SANTELLY we use a conservative technique: thin cannulas, careful fat purification and grafting in multiple planes and layers to support graft survival and a natural-to-the-touch result, without lumps or an artificial look.

The advantage of the BBL is twofold: you reduce the areas that protrude and gain projection using your own tissue, without implants.

Estimated duration: 3—4 hrs

Suitability criteria: Requires sufficient fat reserves and stable weight

BBL (Fat Transfer to Buttocks) is a body plastic surgery procedure performed by Santelly in Tijuana, Mexico, for patients from Mexico and California. Sculpt your contour with your own fat: 360° liposculpture and fat grafting to the buttocks for harmonious, natural-looking projection.

How much fat survives after a BBL?

Part of the graft is naturally reabsorbed during the first weeks. We graft by planes and layers to maximise survival; the final volume stabilises around the third month.

Does a BBL leave visible scars?

The incisions are minimal — a few millimetres — and are placed in natural folds, so they are practically imperceptible.

Why not use buttock implants?

Autologous fat gives a natural, tactile result and allows sculpting the donor areas at the same time. In your assessment we evaluate whether you are a candidate for BBL, implants or a combination.
