What is Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

Brazilian Butt Lift is a fat transfer procedure that harvests fat via liposuction from areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, then purifies and injects it into the buttocks to enhance shape and volume—providing natural, permanent results using your own tissue rather than implants.

What to Know Before You Go

💡

Pro Tip:

The no-sitting rule is crucial for fat survival. Invest in a quality BBL pillow and sleep on your stomach or side for 6–8 weeks. This single commitment dramatically affects your final results.

⚠️

Insider Note:

Beware of prices that seem too low. Quality BBL requires experienced surgeons, proper equipment, and adequate operating time. Budget options may compromise safety protocols that have made modern BBL dramatically safer.

"I recently had surgery, and so far everything's going well 😊 Unfortunately, there was a small misunderstanding at the beginning. But it was cleared up pretty quickly. I was at Özel Uncali Hospital. Most of the staff there are really friendly, especially the nurses on the ward. My doctor was Dr. Bilge, and he's very experienced in his field. He treats his patients as equals and always takes the time to answer any questions you may have. Throughout the entire period, we were cared for by Mr. Ugur from AestheticAntalya. He was always in a good mood, friendly, and always available to us. I would like to take this opportunity to thank him, my doctor, and the nurses again."

"I want to express my deepest gratitude to the clinic for the professional FUE hair transplant. From the very first visit, I felt a caring and attentive attitude: they provided a thorough consultation, answered all my questions, and helped me determine a treatment plan. The procedure was comfortable, painless, and stress-free, and the team of doctors worked harmoniously and meticulously. I was especially pleased with the modern equipment and the high level of sterility. I am more than pleased with the result – my hairline looks natural, the hair has taken well, and a significant difference is already noticeable. A special thank you for the support and advice during the recovery period. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone considering an FUE hair transplant and wanting a high-quality, natural result that will give them confidence."

He answered all my curiosity and questions in the best way and we decided on the surgery date. We got a date for the surgery on August 18th and had my surgery. It has been 1 month and it went so well, I am very happy. I am glad I found Dr. Nedim. Thank you very much. I recommend it to everyone. No one should be afraid of surgery.

"On November 25, 2025, Op. Dr. performed surgery for my drooping upper and lower eyelids. After a very friendly welcome in a very clean environment, I had a very painless and comfortable surgery. He even restored my eyes to an almond-shaped shape, which made me incredibly happy. His expertise made me feel at ease, as I was very apprehensive, and his reassuring approach was very pleasant. I owe him a debt of gratitude."
