Question

I have been looking for a long time now and really want the brazillian butt lift, I had a baby 5 months ago now and thought the weight would budge but not at all I look a mess and really want to know how much for it?

How long does it take and can you do everyday activities straight after?

Answer

In general, for this type of treatment the majority of the fatty tissue is harvested from the flanks or waistline and used to transfer to the gluteal regions. Abdominal fat harvest is limited in and not always suitable after pregnancy, depending on the quality of the abdominal skin.

Depending also on the situation of the abdominal wall muscles, to achieve a more common waistline, it may be necessary to tighten them. This can be evaluated in consultation.

The final consideration is that you may want to allow a little bit more time after childbirth before contemplating surgery, and in the meantime I would advocate an exercise regime that focuses on strengthening the tummy and gluteal muscles, as this can significantly contribute to the shape you would like to achieve.
