The Surgery

It takes anywhere from 4-6 hours for Dr. Stanwix of Stanwix Plastic Surgery to perform a Brazilian Butt Lift. Plastic surgeons used to place hard silicone implants into the buttocks to create a more round appearance.  These were painful, poorly placed, and often required removal because of the problems.  Todays buttocks augmentation, or the Brazilian Butt Lift, takes liposuction fat from the belly, sides, thighs, waist or anywhere you do not want it, and transfers it into the buttocks where you do want it.  Therefore you get the best of both worlds: a smaller, more defined waist, and a curvier buttocks. Dr. Stanwix uses fat transfer techniques to move the fat into the buttocks, avoiding the need for implants.  Dr. Stanwix performs this surgery with only a few small, hidden 1/4 inch incisions! 

After Surgery Care

Dr. Stanwix will place you in a compression garment around your waist and buttocks after the surgery ends.  You will be given pain medicine and other prescriptions to help you stay comfortable in the first days after surgery.  He is also on the leading edge of using prescription pain cream to minimize discomfort and help with a quicker and more healthy recovery.  Dr. Stanwix will provide you with detailed instructions regarding restrictions with activity and sitting following the surgery.  Because it is a minimally invasive surgery, Dr. Stanwix will allow you to shower the day after surgery and you will have a more quick recovery time.  Between the fat transfer and the liposuction, a lot of your results can be seen immediately!
