# What is a Natural BBL Surgery?

![Dr. Jean-Paul Leva](https://levamedical.com/hubfs/blog/authors/dr-jean-paul-leva.jpg) Dr. Jean-Paul Leva 

Aug 6, 2025 5 min read

The term "Natural BBL" refers to a Brazilian Butt Lift procedure that emphasizes a more natural-looking enhancement of the buttocks through the use of a person's own body fat. Unlike traditional butt implants that can often look artificial or feel uncomfortable, this procedure, known as fat transfer, provides seamless and subtle results by adding volume and shape to the buttocks.

## Why Opt for Natural BBL Surgery?

 With the rise of social media and focus on body image, there is an increasing demand for body enhancements that do not create an artificial look. Natural BBL is becoming immensely popular as it not only achieves a more balanced and youthful physique but is also a safer alternative. This non-invasive treatment requires only a topical anesthetic and has minimal downtime, allowing you to return to your normal activities within a short time.

## The Brazilian Butt Lift Process

 Leva Medical specializes in Natural BBL using a technique called fat grafting. This involves liposuction from a donor area, such as your belly or love handles, to extract excess fat. The extracted fat is then purified and carefully reinjected into different sizes and areas of the buttocks to create a beautifully restored, plumper appearance without the risks associated with traditional butt implants.

Dr. Leva recommends following a balanced nutrition plan while on the Skinny Shot program. Strive to include:

- A wide range of vegetables and fruits
- Whole grains over refined grains
- Lean proteins such as poultry, fish, and legumes

## Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between traditional Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) and a non-surgical BBL?

A traditional Brazilian Butt Lift involves a fat transfer procedure where fat cells are harvested from other areas of the body, such as the thighs and hips, through liposuction and then re-injected into the buttocks to add volume and achieve beautifully restored, fuller buttocks. This cosmetic proceduree is performed by a plastic surgeon and has a recovery ery time. On the other hand, a non surgical BBL or non-surgical butt lift is less invasive and involves dermal fillers, such as Poly L-lactic acid, to augment and contour the buttocks. This procedure may require several appointments and doesn't involve fat transfer.

How can I achieve natural-looking results with a BBL?

To achieve natural-looking BBL results, it's essential to have realistic expectations and to discuss your desired outcome with a skilled plastic surgeon. Your surgeon will use several techniques to ensure that the body's fat cells are evenly distributed and match the natural curves of your body. Additionally, combining the BBL procedure with other body contouring procedures can provide more realistic results, as compared to the artificial shape sometimes achieved with implants.

What are the risk and recovery time associated with surgical and surgical BBL procedures?

Surgical BBL has risks like infection, swelling, and discomfort at the fat harvest and injection sites, but it offers long-lasting results. The recovery period varies but most patients can expect to return to normal movement within a few weeks. Non-surgical BBL has fewer risks and a quicker recovery time, as it doesn't involve incisions or fat transfer, but the results might not be as dramatic or long-lasting as a surgical BBL. It's important to follow the post-procedure care practices your provider recommends.

How can a BBL improve self-confidence?

Many patients find that enhancing the size and shape of their buttocks with a BBL procedure can increase their self-confidence. rounder butt and slimmer waist achieved through this procedure can provide a more voluptuous figure and make clothes fit better, which can be especially beneficial for women after pregnancy or massive weight loss.

Are the results of a BBL permanent?

The results of a surgical BBL, where fat cells are transferred, can last for several years or more. However, natural aging process and significant weight loss can affect the results over time. Non-surgical BBL results are temporary, and maintenance appointments are needed to keep the desired shape.

How do dermal fillers work in non-surgical BBL?

Dermal fillers, such as Poly L-lactic acid, work by stimulating the body's natural collagen production. Collagen is a protein responsible for keeping the skin supple and firm. The dermal filler is inserted through injections and helps to replenish the collagen, which results in plumper and rounder buttocks.

How do I know if I'm an ideal candidate for a BBL procedure?

The first step is to schedule a consultation with a plastic surgeon or cosmetic surgery team dedicated to BBL surgeries. They will discuss your goals, health history, and any concerns. Having realistic expectations, being in good health, and understanding the pros and cons of each option (surgical and non-surgical) are important to determine if you are an ideal candidate for a BBL procedure.
