Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
Natural curves from your own fat
What is a BBL?
The Brazilian Butt Lift is a procedure that combines liposuction of unwanted areas such as the abdomen and flanks with re-injection of that fat into the buttocks, to achieve full, natural curves. What sets this procedure apart is that it uses the patient's own body fat, making the result natural in both feel and appearance without artificial implants. Dr. Ahmad Dawood performs the injection in multiple, precise layers to ensure the highest possible survival rate of the transferred fat. The result is twofold — a sculpted body in the liposuction areas and full, well-proportioned buttocks — and the results are permanent as long as your weight remains stable.

Buttock augmentation techniques
Traditional BBL — autologous fat transfer
Liposuction from multiple areas, purification of the fat, then injection into the buttocks in multiple layers. The most common technique and the one with the best results, because it uses the body's own natural tissue.
BBL with waist sculpting (360 Lipo)
Adds comprehensive liposuction of the entire waistline (abdomen, sides, lower back), which accentuates the curves of the buttocks even more and creates an ideal, well-balanced silhouette.
Buttock augmentation with implants
An alternative for patients who do not have enough fat to transfer. Medical-grade silicone implants specifically designed for the buttocks are used. Dr. Ahmad Dawood discusses the most suitable option for each case.
Who is the ideal candidate for a BBL?
The ideal candidate is a woman in good health with a stable weight, who has sufficient fat deposits in other areas of the body that can be harvested and transferred. A body mass index below 30 is preferred. Non-smokers achieve the best results, as smoking affects the survival of the transferred fat. Realistic expectations are essential — results depend on the amount of fat available and the body's original structure.
What to expect during and after the procedure
The surgery begins with liposuction of the designated areas, after which the fat is purified and prepared for injection. The fat is injected into the buttocks in small amounts and in multiple layers to ensure the highest survival rate. After the procedure, you must avoid sitting directly on the buttocks for two weeks and use a special BBL cushion. A compression garment is worn for 6 weeks. Swelling subsides gradually over 4-6 weeks. You can return to office work after 2-3 weeks. The final result appears after 3-6 months, once the transferred fat has stabilised (70-80% remains permanently).
