What Is a Butt Lift?

A butt lift is a body contouring procedure designed to enhance the shape, position, and volume of the buttocks. Changes Plastic Surgery & Spa offers a Brazilian butt lift, which uses purified fat from the patient’s own body to safely and subtly augment the derrière. Unlike traditional silicone buttock implants, which can be unpredictable and uncomfortable, a Brazilian butt lift creates a more natural-looking, soft shape that aligns with your proportions.

Transform Your Silhouette From All Sides

Every patient has a different motivation for seeking plastic surgery in San Diego, CA, and we understand that this is a profoundly personal decision. Many of our patients come to us to achieve the following benefits of a butt lift:

Youthful, perky appearance
Enhanced volume and shape in the buttocks
More long-lasting and comfortable results compared to buttock implants
Utilization of body fat for authentic-looking results
No shifting implants or risk of rupture
Reduced potential for visible scarring

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Butt Lift?

Ideal butt lift candidates are healthy, non-smoking adults who are at a stable weight and want to enhance the volume, size, and fullness of the buttocks without implants. Patients must also have adequate donor fat along the flanks, abdomen, or thighs to facilitate fast harvesting. During your initial consultation, your surgeon will evaluate your anatomy, fat distribution, and skin health to confirm your candidacy.

Pricing Your Procedure

The cost of your butt lift in San Diego, CA, will depend on the following factors:

The extent of liposuction performed
Anesthesia method
The volume of your fat transfer
Whether additional procedures are conducted in the same session

Butt lifts are considered cosmetic procedures and are not typically covered by insurance. Our team will share a precise cost estimate and financing options during your consultation for complete transparency.

What to Expect From Your Brazilian Butt Lift in San Diego, CA

Our butt lifts are outpatient procedures performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Your surgery will begin with careful liposuction along your donor areas, typically the abdomen, thighs, or flanks, to harvest and purify fat cells. Then, the healthy fat cells will be carefully injected into your buttocks to craft a sculpted, lifted shape that aligns with your natural curves.

High-Touch Recovery Every Step of the Way

Recovery from your butt lift in San Diego, CA, will involve mild swelling, bruising, and soreness at the treatment and donor areas, which should subside within two weeks. You’ll need to avoid sitting or lying directly on your buttocks, including while driving, for at least three weeks to facilitate healing. Most patients return to their daily routines, including desk work and gentle movement, within a month or less.

You’ll head home from your procedure with extensive aftercare instructions that will include the following items:

Injection site care protocols
Activity limitations
Supportive garment and pillow recommendations
Sleep position restrictions
Pain management strategies, if needed

Over the coming weeks, you’ll return to our San Diego office for multiple follow-up appointments. There, your surgeon will evaluate your healing progress, assess the health of your healing fat cells, and clear you to resume activities such as prolonged sitting, driving, and strenuous exercise.

Before You Begin

As with all surgical procedures, a Brazilian butt lift carries some risks. Potential complications include the following:

Infection
Bleeding at the injection site
Fat resorption
Asymmetry
Contour irregularities

Your surgeon will review all possible risks with you during your initial consultation to ensure you’re fully informed and confident in your decision.

Achieve a Head-to-Toe Transformation at Changes

Many of our patients opt to include other procedures with their butt lift for a more comprehensive rejuvenation. Complementary procedures include the following:

Mommy Makeover
Tummy tuck
Liposuction
Breast augmentation

Butt Lift FAQs

How long do Brazilian butt lift results last?

The results of your butt lift in San Diego, CA, will last for several years. The transferred fat will permanently settle into its new position after the initial healing period.

Will my liposuction scars be visible?

No. Our surgeons strategically place small liposuction incisions along the body's natural curves to minimize scar visibility after recovery.

How soon can I exercise after a butt lift?

Light walking is encouraged early in the healing process to stimulate circulation, but strenuous exercise will be limited for the first six to eight weeks. Your surgeon will clear you to resume impactful activities once you’ve reached certain recovery milestones.

Will a butt lift help with cellulite?

A butt lift can improve the contour and smoothness of the buttocks, but it will not directly treat cellulite. Some patients notice mild improvements in their cellulite due to enhanced volume and skin tension, but this is not guaranteed.
