Brazilian Butt Lift in Lubbock TX, Midland Texas, and West Texas, and New Mexico

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Having naturally small buttocks can sometimes make it difficult to achieve a curvy silhouette. The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) reshapes and enhances the buttocks, helping to create a fuller, more shapely figure. Dr. Mo Boonipat uses a specialized technique designed to carefully recontour the hips and buttocks, creating a more defined hourglass shape.

Dr. Boonipat’s personalized BBL method uses the patient’s own body fat to enhance curves, minimizing the risk of fat rejection or resorption, and ensuring longer-lasting results. He is dedicated to listening to your goals and executing the procedure to achieve the best possible outcome.

What Are the Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift?

A Brazilian Butt Lift can improve the size and shape of your buttocks, giving them a fuller and more flattering appearance. Other advantages of the Brazilian Butt Lift include:

What Does My Brazilian Butt Lift Include?

The Brazilian Butt Lift typically involves three main steps: removing fat from areas of excess fat, purifying the fat, and injecting it into the buttocks.

Liposuction
Patients seeking natural buttock enhancement using the Brazilian Butt Lift will undergo liposuction to harvest fat for grafting. This involves removing excess fat from trouble areas of the body using a specific liposuction technique best suited for the patient. Small incisions are made, and a thin cannula is used to break up and suction out unwanted fat.

Fat Transfer
The final step involves transferring purified fat into the buttocks. Dr. Boonipat’s technique uses a layering method to inject the fat into different tissue layers, which improves graft success and creates a smoother result.

How to Prepare for a Brazilian Butt Lift?

Dr. Mo Boonipat will provide clear pre- and post-surgery instructions to ensure you’re fully prepared for your procedure. Following these guidelines will help make the surgery and recovery process as smooth as possible.
Before your Brazilian Butt Lift, you should:

Stop smoking for at least six to eight weeks, as it can complicate healing
Plan for a friend or family member to drive you home after the procedure
Avoid eating or drinking after midnight the night before surgery
Bring identification and required paperwork for a smooth check-in process

Can I Combine My Brazilian Butt Lift With Other Procedures?

Yes, the Brazilian Butt Lift can be combined with other body contouring procedures for optimal results.

Tummy Tuck
Many women choose to combine their BBL with a tummy tuck. This procedure removes excess fat and skin from the abdominal area, creating a smoother, more sculpted midsection. The results of a tummy tuck are permanent unless significant weight fluctuations or future pregnancies occur.

Body Lift
A body lift can be combined with a BBL to enhance the shape and size of the buttocks, as well as improve the appearance of the abdomen and thighs. This procedure is ideal for patients with significant skin laxity. Results are typically permanent if the patient maintains a stable weight.

What is the difference between oral/maxillofacial surgeon and plastic surgeon?

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons have a dental background. They went to dental school prior to obtaining their training in maxillofacial surgery. The training involved dental implants, third molar removal, facial fractures, orthognathic surgery, and in some programs free flaps reconstruction for the head and neck. Plastic Surgeons goes to medical school prior to residency. In plastic surgery residency, the training does not involve dental implants, or third molar removal. It does involve facial fractures, orthognathic surgery, free flap reconstruction in the head and neck and the rest of the body. Plastic surgeons also have extensive training in facial aesthetics. Dr. Boonipat further his plastic surgery training with a concentrated fellowship in aesthetic jaw surgery in Taiwan. He is well qualified to address both your functional concerns by working with your orthodontist (braces/teeth doctor), and your aesthetic concerns because of his plastic surgery and fellowship training. In many cases, jaw surgery can be performed with other aesthetic procedures to improve your aesthetic outcome, all under one anesthesia.
