What is a BBL Brazilian Butt Lift?
The BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves reshaping the buttocks through autologous fat transfer. Adipose cells are harvested via liposuction and then re-injected into the glutes to increase their volume and improve their curve.
Fat is extracted from areas with excess (abdomen, hips, back). This dual procedure allows for slimming the silhouette while increasing buttock projection. Turkey has become the world leader in this procedure thanks to the expertise of its plastic surgeons in Istanbul.
Turkey is among the world’s most sought-after destinations for medical tourism. The quality of care and medical competence generate strong appeal. The BBL is one of the TOP procedures performed in Istanbul.
Advantages of the BBL
The BBL is preferred over buttock implants because it uses the patient’s own natural tissues, eliminating any risk of rejection. The resulting shape is more natural to the touch and in appearance.
- Permanent results (once the fat has stabilised).
- No foreign bodies (no silicone).
- Dual benefit: liposuction of stubborn areas and shapely buttocks.
- Virtually invisible scars (3-4 mm incisions).
Who is the ideal candidate?
The ideal candidate must have sufficient fat reserves to allow for the transfer. A BMI between 22 and 30 is recommended. Patients with a stable weight benefit from more durable results, as grafted fat cells react to weight fluctuations. This procedure is often combined with buttock lipofilling for maximum volume.
How is the BBL performed in Turkey?
The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia and lasts between 2 and 4 hours. After the fat extraction, it is purified by centrifugation to keep only healthy adipose cells. These are then re-injected via micro-incisions into the gluteal muscles to ensure optimal graft uptake.
Post-operative Follow-up and Recovery
A loss of 30% of the injected fat is normal during the first 3 months. The final result is definitive at 6 months. Wearing a compression garment (panty) is mandatory for 6 weeks to reduce swelling and sculpt the silhouette. High-definition techniques like Vaser Liposuction are often used to refine the results.
Essential Precautions after a BBL
- Direct sitting is prohibited on the buttocks for 3 weeks (use a BBL pillow).
- Sleep only on your stomach or on your side.
- Rigorous hygiene of incision areas to avoid any infection.
- Light walking from the next day to promote blood circulation.
- No intense sport before 6 to 8 weeks.
Risks and Safety
Although rare, the main risk is fat embolism. In Turkey, surgeons now use the superficial injection technique to eliminate this risk. Choosing a surgeon certified by ISAPS is essential to guarantee your safety.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a BBL last?
Unlike hyaluronic acid injections, BBL results are permanent. Once the fat has stabilized (after 3 to 6 months), the grafted fat cells live permanently in the buttock area.
Is the BBL painful?
The pain can be moderate but sometimes requires taking pain relievers during the 1 to 3 weeks of convalescence.
What BMI is needed for buttock lipofilling?
The ideal BMI is between 22 and 30. Below 20, the amount of fat may be insufficient. Above 32, operative risks increase and the aesthetic result may be less precise.
When can I resume sport after a BBL?
Walking is recommended immediately. Light sport (gentle cardio) can be resumed after 4 weeks. For exercises stressing the glutes (squats), you must wait at least 2 months.
What is the minimum length of stay in Turkey for a BBL?
You should plan a stay of 7 days on site. This includes the pre-operative consultation, the procedure, 1 night of hospitalization, and the post-operative check-up before your return flight.
