Brazilian butt lift in Providence, Rhode Island and Boston, Massachusetts
What is a Brazilian butt lift?
A Brazilian butt lift is a specialized fat transfer procedure that augments both the size and shape of the buttocks without the use of implants. Excess fat is removed from other parts of your body like the hips, abdomen, lower back, or thighs with liposuction. A portion of this fat is then strategically injected into the buttocks.
Dr. Luciano can improve the proportions of your entire lower body with Brazilian butt lift surgery, helping you lose fat in common “problem areas” and enhance your buttocks, with results that may last many years.
Why should I have a Brazilian butt lift?
The shape and proportion of your buttocks are largely determined by genetics as well as other lifestyle factors; both your skeletal structure and how your body stores fat influence the appearance of the lower body. A healthy diet and exercise can work to achieve a healthy body weight and tone your muscles, but we have found that many patients still remain unhappy with a “flat” buttocks that lack an attractive shape, despite a healthy lifestyle.
Brazilian butt lift surgery can help overcome the effects of genetics by reshaping the buttocks and surrounding areas, such as the hips, lower back, and thighs. You might consider a Brazilian butt lift at Skinsational by Dr. Luciano in order to:
- Enhance the curves of your lower body
- Reduce fat pockets on your hips, thighs or belly while adding fullness to the buttocks
- Help your clothes fit more attractively
- Give a more youthful, aesthetically pleasing shape rather than living with your flat buttocks

How to know if you are a good candidate for a Brazilian butt lift?
A Brazilian butt lift can be a truly great option to improve both the shape and size of your buttocks. Certain patients are better suited to the procedure, and it is important to have realistic expectations about the surgery, recovery, and results you may achieve with Dr. Luciano’s help. In general, you are likely a good candidate for a Brazilian butt lift if you agree with the following:
- You want a buttock augmentation without the use of implants
- You have good skin tone in the hips and buttocks
- You have adequate fat stores in other areas to harvest for injection into the buttocks
- You are willing and able to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for a few weeks.
Despite its name, a Brazilian butt lift is not a traditional “lifting” procedure. A Brazilian butt lift does not actually address loose skin on the buttocks. If you are bothered by excess, sagging skin on the buttocks or thighs, liposuction or liposculpture procedures, may be a more suitable option. Talk with Dr. Luciano about the options that are right for you.
The difference between a Brazilian butt lift and buttock implants
One significant advantage of Brazilian butt lift surgery is that it increases buttock size without the use of implants being placed in your body. In the hands of Dr. Luciano and his highly skilled staff, the procedure has a low risk of complications and can achieve a remarkable natural look and feel. Buttock implants may not look and feel as natural as fat.
What is involved in Brazilian butt lift surgery?
- Fat is removed from the hips, lower back, thighs, abdomen, and/or other areas with excessive fat deposits
- Fat is removed from the hips, lower back, thighs, abdomen, and/or other areas with excessive fat deposits
- The cosmetic surgeon injects fat into specific points on the buttocks to increase volume and improve the shape in the buttocks, with or without a hip flare.
Surgery is typically performed as an outpatient procedure, using purely local anesthesia or intravenous sedation. General anesthesia is not necessary and it is not used by Dr. Luciano. It is typical for a portion of the injected fat not to “take” in its new location. Dr. Luciano will take this into account and may initially inject a slightly greater amount of fat into the buttocks than is needed, in order to help improve your final results.
Having an operation on the buttocks requires some special modifications to your routines and behavior during the brief recovery. While pain is typically minimal and easily controlled through pain medication that you will be prescribed, you may not be allowed to either sit or lie directly on your buttocks for about 2 weeks after a Brazilian butt lift. Every case is different, so please ask the Dr. about your specific needs.
During this time, you will need to sleep on your stomach or side, and either lie this way or stand for all activity except using the toilet. When you are ready, your cosmetic surgeon will allow you to sit in a modified position, using a “donut” seat or placing a pillow under your thighs to avoid pressure on the buttocks, in some cases. Normal sitting activity is typically allowed after 4 weeks or so.
Given you follow Dr. Luciano’s instructions, you should be able to resume light daily activities within 1 week after surgery and return to work within a week.
Your Life after Brazilian butt lift surgery by Dr. Luciano
Brazilian butt lift results are intended to last for many years. Fat cells removed with liposuction should not return to the area, and fat cells that survive being transferred to your buttocks can be expected to remain for years to come. However, significant weight fluctuations can affect your results, so maintaining a stable weight is crucial in order to keep your results looking their best. As well, many fat cells will dissolve over time, which may cause contour irregularities and you may need a second procedure.
Results are typically final within 6 months of surgery, after the residual swelling has gone away and you are completely healed. By this time, your new, fuller, higher and firmer buttocks and improved lower body proportions will be noticeable in how you look and in the way clothing fits.
When performed by Dr. Luciano and the professional team at Skinstational, a Brazilian butt lift is a rewarding procedure with long-lasting results. The best way to learn more is to meet with Dr. Luciano for a no-obligation consultation.
