The struggle to achieve a full, round butt is all to real. Fortunately, Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBL) are a transformative cosmetic procedure to give you the backside you want. However, misconceptions often cloud the decision-making process for potential candidates. Let’s debunk some common myths about butt lifts and set the record straight.

At Envision Cosmetic Surgery, led by the highly qualified Dr. Dunkley, patients receive top care tailored based on their desired outcomes. With extensive training, including a fellowship in cosmetic surgery, Dr. Dunkley delivers safe and natural-looking results for procedures like the Brazilian Butt Lift.

Myth 1: Brazilian Butt Lifts Are Dangerous

Fact: While early reports highlighted safety concerns, advancements in surgical techniques and strict guidelines have made BBLs significantly safer. Choosing a board-certified plastic surgeon experienced in BBL procedures ensures proper fat transfer methods and minimizes risks. Safety begins with a skilled provider and following post-op instructions diligently.

Myth 2: The Results Look Unnatural

Fact: A well-done BBL enhances natural curves and provides a balanced silhouette. Results can look overly dramatic when not tailored to the patient’s body type, but an experienced surgeon customizes the procedure to match your proportions, creating a natural and flattering outcome.

Myth 3: The Procedure Uses Silicone Implants

Fact: Unlike butt implants, a BBL uses your body’s fat, harvested via liposuction from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or back. This natural fat transfer creates a softer, more organic feel and appearance compared to synthetic implants.

Myth 4: BBL Results Are Permanent

Fact: While many results are long-lasting, maintaining them requires a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. The body may naturally absorb some fat, but the remaining transferred fat becomes permanent when properly integrated.

Myth 6: It’s Only for Young Patients

Fact: Age is less important than overall health. Many patients in their 40s and 50s achieve stunning results with a BBL if they meet the health criteria.
