FAQs
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Brazilian Butt Lift, also known as buttock augmentation with fat transfer, is a cosmetic surgical procedure used to enhance buttock volume and contour.
As people age, the effects of genetics, gravity, and poor diet can lead to buttocks that sag, are lumpy, overly flat, or generally may lose volume, shape, or firmness over tim. A Brazilian butt lift at Clinic 360 in Toronto offers patients the chance to improve buttock volume, contour, and projection.
Is a BBL Right For Me ?
A Brazilian Butt Lift may be a good option if you're looking to enhance the shape and volume of your buttocks using your own natural fat. The best candidates have enough excess fat for transfer, are in good overall health, and have realistic expectations about surgery and recovery. During your consultation at Clinic 360, your surgeon will assess your anatomy and discuss whether a BBL is the right procedure to help you achieve your goals.

Fat Transfer Areas for a Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian Butt Lift begins with liposuction, where excess fat is removed from areas with unwanted fat, purified, and carefully transferred to the buttocks to create fuller, natural-looking curves.
Many patients choose to combine their BBL with Lipo 360, one of the most popular options. Lipo 360 removes fat from the abdomen, flanks, bra roll, and lower back, helping define the waist while providing additional fat for transfer to the buttocks. During your consultation at Clinic 360, your surgeon will determine which areas are best suited for liposuction and whether you have enough fat to achieve your desired results.
Common fat donor areas include:
- Abdomen
- Flanks (Love Handles)
- Lower Back
- Bra Roll
- Hips
- Inner Thighs
- Outer Thighs
- Arms (in select patients)
- Lipo 360 (Abdomen, Flanks, Bra Roll, Lower Back)

How a BBL Surgery is Performed
Step 1 : General Anesthesia
The procedure begins with the patient being safely placed under general anesthesia, ensuring they are fully asleep and comfortable throughout the surgery.
Step 2. Fat Collection
Excess fat is gently removed from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs using liposuction.
Step 3. Fat Purification
The harvested fat is processed and purified to separate healthy fat cells from excess fluid, blood, and oil
Step 4. Fat Transfer
BBL Recovery
Recovery after a Brazilian Butt Lift requires time for both the liposuction areas and the transferred fat to heal. You will wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and support your new contours, and you'll need to avoid sitting directly on your buttocks for the first 2 to 3 weeks, using a BBL pillow when necessary. Most patients return to work within 7 to 14 days, while strenuous exercise can usually be resumed after 6 to 8 weeks, as advised by your surgeon.
Brazilian Butt Lift Risks
Like any surgical procedure, a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) carries potential risks. These may include infection, bleeding, swelling, bruising, temporary numbness, fluid buildup (seroma), scarring, and anesthesia-related complications. Because a BBL involves fat transfer, some of the transferred fat may be naturally absorbed by the body, which can affect the final volume or lead to minor asymmetry. Choosing an experienced, qualified surgeon and carefully following your post-operative instructions are important for promoting a safe recovery and achieving the best possible outcome.
Brazilian Butt Lift Results
You'll notice an improvement in your shape as swelling begins to subside, but your final BBL results continue to develop over the next 3 to 6 months. During the healing process, it's normal for the body to absorb some of the transferred fat. On average, about 60% to 80% of the transferred fat survives long term, while the remaining fat is naturally reabsorbed. The fat that remains becomes a permanent part of your body, providing long-lasting, natural-looking enhancement. Maintaining a stable weight and following your surgeon's post-operative instructions can help optimize your results.

Brazilian Butt Lift FAQs
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?
A Brazilian Butt Lift is a cosmetic procedure that uses your own fat to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks. Fat is removed through liposuction, purified, and carefully injected into the buttocks for natural-looking results.
Who is a good candidate for a BBL?
You may be a good candidate if you have enough excess fat for transfer, are in good overall health, and want to enhance the shape and volume of your buttocks without implants.
How long does a BBL procedure take?
A BBL typically takes 2 to 4 hours, depending on the number of liposuction areas and the amount of fat being transferred.
How long do BBL results last?
While some of the transferred fat is naturally absorbed during healing, about 60% to 80% typically survives long term. The remaining fat becomes a permanent part of your body, and maintaining a stable weight can help preserve your results.
When can I sit after a BBL?
Most patients should avoid sitting directly on their buttocks for 2 to 3 weeks. If sitting is necessary, a BBL pillow should be used to reduce pressure on the transferred fat.
Will I have scars after a BBL?
BBL involves small liposuction incisions that typically heal into small, discreet scars. Your surgeon will place them in areas that are as inconspicuous as possible.
How much does a Brazilian Butt Lift cost in Toronto?
At Clinic 360, Brazilian Butt Lift surgery starts at $15,000. Your personalized quote will depend on the amount of liposuction required and your individual treatment plan, which will be discussed during your consultation.
What if I don't have enough fat for a BBL? Can I use someone else's fat?
No. For safety reasons, a BBL can only use your own fat. Fat cannot be transferred from another person because the body would reject it. If you don't have enough donor fat, your surgeon may recommend gaining a small amount of weight before surgery or discuss other body contouring options that may better suit your goals.
Does a "Skinny BBL" Cost Less?
Not necessarily. While less fat may be transferred, slimmer patients often require liposuction from multiple areas to collect enough fat for the procedure. The overall cost depends on your surgical plan, not just the amount of fat transferred.
