Brazilian Butt Lift
in Phoenix, AZ
Dr. Martin Benjamin offers Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery in Phoenix, AZ, using fat transfer techniques to enhance the shape and proportions of the buttocks. The procedure combines liposuction with fat grafting, allowing unwanted fat to be removed from selected areas and strategically transferred to the buttocks. Each treatment plan is customized to the patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals, with an emphasis on balanced, natural-looking contours.
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a specialized fat transfer procedure that augments the size and shape of the buttocks without implants. The process involves two main steps: first, fat is removed from other areas of the body, such as the abdomen or thighs, using liposuction. This harvested fat is then purified and carefully injected into specific areas of the buttocks to improve volume, lift, and contour.

Your BBL Journey Overview
Personalized Consultation
Your BBL journey begins with a private consultation. We’ll discuss your goals, evaluate your anatomy for candidacy, and outline a tailored surgical plan to achieve your desired curves.
The BBL Procedure
On the day of your surgery, your surgeon performs liposuction to harvest fat from donor areas, purifies it, and then strategically injects it to enhance and sculpt your buttocks.
Post-Operative Recovery
After your procedure, you will enter a recovery period focused on healing and protecting the new fat grafts. This involves wearing a compression garment and avoiding direct pressure on your buttocks.
Enjoying Your New Shape
Final results will emerge over several months as swelling resolves and the fat settles. With a stable weight, you can enjoy a permanently fuller, more contoured silhouette.
Consultation and Preparation
- Your Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Martin Benjamin. This is an opportunity to discuss your goals, review your medical history, and have your questions answered. Your surgeon will evaluate your body to determine if you have sufficient fat stores for the transfer.
- Creating Your Treatment Plan
Based on your consultation, a personalized surgical plan will be developed. This plan outlines the areas for liposuction and the strategy for fat injection to achieve your desired buttock shape and volume. You will receive detailed pre-operative instructions to help you prepare.
- Preparing for Your Surgery
To ensure you are ready for surgery, you will be asked to follow specific guidelines, which may include stopping certain medications and maintaining a stable weight. Proper preparation is key to a successful procedure and recovery. Our team will guide you through every step.
What to Expect During Your BBL
Anesthesia and Comfort
On the day of your surgery, you will be placed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the procedure. Our experienced anesthesia team will monitor you closely from start to finish in our accredited surgical facility.
Fat Removal via Liposuction
Your surgeon will begin by performing liposuction on the predetermined donor areas. Small, discreet incisions are made to insert a cannula, which is used to gently suction out the excess fat. This part of the procedure not only harvests the necessary fat but also slims and contours the donor areas.
Purification of Fat Cells
The collected fat is then transferred to a sterile system that separates the viable fat cells from blood and other fluids. This purification process is essential for maximizing the survival rate of the transferred fat. Only the most robust fat cells are selected for injection.
Enhancement through Fat Grafting
Finally, the purified fat is carefully injected into the buttocks using small syringes. Your surgeon will meticulously layer the fat injections to sculpt the desired shape, improve projection, and create a natural-looking result. The incisions for the injections are tiny and typically do not require sutures.

Recovery After Your BBL
Your Immediate Post-Op Period
Following your Brazilian Butt Lift, you will be fitted with a special compression garment. This garment helps to reduce swelling in both the liposuction areas and the buttocks, and it provides support as you heal. You will be monitored in our recovery area before being released to go home.
Managing Comfort and Activity
Discomfort is typically manageable with prescribed medication. You will be advised to avoid sitting or lying directly on your buttocks for several weeks to protect the newly transferred fat cells. Specialized pillows and cushions can help you maintain this position comfortably.
Follow-Up Appointments
You will have several follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress. These check-ins allow your surgeon to ensure everything is healing as expected and to address any questions you may have. Most patients can return to light daily activities within a week or two.
Seeing Your Final Results
While you will notice an immediate change in your body shape, final results will become apparent as swelling subsides and the transferred fat settles. This process can take several months. The result is a durably enhanced and more proportionate lower body contour.

BBL Frequently Asked Questions
How long do the results of a Brazilian Butt Lift last?
The results of a BBL can be very long-lasting. The fat cells that survive the transfer process will remain in your buttocks permanently. Maintaining a stable weight is key to preserving your results for years to come.
How much fat is needed for a BBL?
The amount of fat needed varies for each patient, depending on their anatomy and desired outcome. An ideal candidate has sufficient excess fat in areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs that can be harvested for the transfer. Your surgeon will determine if you are a suitable candidate during your consultation.
When can I sit normally after a BBL?
You will need to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for at least 2-3 weeks after surgery to ensure the viability of the transferred fat cells. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions and may recommend a special pillow to use when sitting is unavoidable.
Is a Brazilian Butt Lift painful?
Patients are under general anesthesia during the procedure and will not feel any pain. Post-operative discomfort is common but can be effectively managed with prescribed pain medication. Most patients report that the discomfort is most significant in the first few days and subsides gradually.
Can I combine a BBL with other procedures?
