Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery in Ottawa with Dr. Ian MacArthur

Many may get Brazilian butt lift surgery to restore confidence after significant weight loss, while others want to enhance the size and add definition to achieve a curvier, more youthful-looking silhouette.

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a type of cosmetic surgery that uses a person's own fat to enhance the size and shape of their buttocks. The procedure involves liposuction to remove fat from specific areas of the body (like the abdomen, hips, or thighs). This fat is purified and then injected into the buttocks.

Dr. MacArthur is a top-rated Board Certified Plastic Surgeon in Ottawa specializing in brazilian butt lift surgery. He is the Medical Director at New Age Medical Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, one of the busiest surgical centers in the city.

What to Expect During Surgery:

Consultation

Before the surgery, you'll have a consultation with Dr. MacArthur to discuss your aesthetic goals in detail, and all your questions will be answered. You will also get a digital preview to see what your results may look like after surgery.

Anesthesia

BBL is performed under general anesthesia. This means you will be comfortable and asleep during surgery.

Liposuction

Dr. MacArthur will make small incisions in targetted areas and remove excess fat through a thin tube called a cannula.

Once extracted, the fat is processed and purified to ensure only the healthiest cells are used.

The purified fat is then injected into various areas and depths of the buttocks to achieve a natural and symmetrical result.

Natural Results

During surgery, Dr. MacArthur implements modern brazilian butt lift techniques for the most natural results.

Post-Surgery Expectations:

Recovery time

Most patients can return to non-strenuous activities within 2 weeks, but full recovery can take up to 6 weeks.

Swelling & Bruising

An incision is made from ear to ear behind the hairline. The forehead skin is lifted, and excess tissue is removed.

Avoid Sitting Directly on your Buttocks

For at least two weeks, to ensure the transferred fat remains undisturbed.

Compression Garment

This helps reduce swelling and shapes the buttocks.

How to Prepare for Surgery:

Consultation

You will discuss your aesthetic goals in detail and Dr. MacArthur will answer all of your questions during your initial consultation.

Medications

 Avoid medications or supplements that can increase bleeding, such as aspirin, for about a week before surgery.

Quit Smoking

If you're a smoker, you'll be asked to stop smoking well before surgery, as it can delay healing.

Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet.

Arrange for a Ride

Make sure you have someone available to drive you home post-surgery and assist you for the first day.

Frequently Asked Questions About Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery

It's essential for patients to have realistic expectations before undergoing surgery. While a BBL can enhance the buttocks' appearance, it may not achieve the "perfect" shape one has in mind. It's important to remember that results will vary based on skin elasticity, age, and general health. Open communication, understanding the limits of the procedure, and setting achievable goals will ensure satisfaction and a positive experience.

How long will the results last?

Results can be long-lasting, but it's essential to maintain a stable weight. Significant weight fluctuations and the natural effect of aging can alter the results over time.

Will there be scars?

There may be small scars from liposuction, but they are usually discreet and fade over time.

What are the most popular procedures performed with a brazilian butt lift?

Often, patients combine a BBL with other procedures for a more comprehensive transformation:
1) Tummy Tuck: To tighten, flatten, and tone the abdomen.
2) Breast Augmentation or Breast Lift: To achieve a balanced body silhouette.
