    How Much Does Buttock Augmentation Cost?

    How Much Does Buttock Augmentation Cost?

    Buttock Augmentation Cost | Richmond Plastic Surgery | Vienna | McLean
    Buttock augmentation can be performed using only fat transfer, which is popularly known as Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery. The cost of this procedure may be relatively more affordable than butt implant surgery. Many patients consider this procedure as an investment in their enhanced appearance of the backside and improved self-confidence.
    During the initial consultation, the plastic surgeon will discuss all aspects of the buttock augmentation procedure, including its estimated costs. MBody provides this surgery to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and surrounding communities.
     

    Cost Factors

    The cost of buttock augmentation plastic surgery can vary between two practices, and sometimes even between two patients at the same practice. The following factors will go into determining the overall monetary amount of the procedure:
     
    Practice Location
    The price tag of buttock augmentation can vary from one city to another due to the differences in regional economies. More cost conscious may even travel to another city if they find the cost of surgery more affordable in that area.
    However, in ideal circumstances, the patient should look for a more qualified or board certified surgeon instead of prioritizing the costs.
     
    Surgeon’s Expertise
    The expertise and authority of the plastic surgeon who will perform buttock augmentation might influence the costs of procedure. Such surgeons invest in latest techniques, continuing education, and strive to provide the highest standards of care. They are more in demand, and could be hard-pressed for time.
    Therefore, the surgeon’s fee may be relatively higher in such cases. It is usually worth the extra cost to receive the best quality treatment and personalized care from an experienced and board certified plastic surgeon.
     
    Surgical Room and Anesthesia Costs
    The type of anesthesia and sedation that a surgeon uses for buttock augmentation may vary from case to case. General anesthesia will involve additional fee of the anesthesiologist or a certified anesthetist nurse.
    Buttock augmentation may be performed at a hospital, surgical center or a private surgical suite. The cost and benefits will differ in each case. MBody receives patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and surrounding communities, and nearby areas.
     

    Extent of Surgery

    Some patients may require more extensive fat transfer in the buttocks, which could involve liposuction from multiple areas. Some other patients may want to combine buttock augmentation with additional procedures such as thigh lift or tummy tuck to achieve more comprehensive results. The costs will go up in such cases as compared to a situation where only limited fat transfer from one area to the buttocks is involved.
     

    Insurance and Financing

    Insurance coverage will usually not be applicable for buttock augmentation, except in a situation where sagging skin in the buttocks is causing medical problems such as skin infection. Financing through third party medical care finance companies is available to most patients with quick loan approvals, low interest rates and affordable monthly installments. The surgeon’s office may be able to assist with such financing payment plans.

    What is Buttock Augmentation?

    sdggfhButtock augmentation is a plastic surgery procedure involving the surgical placement of synthetic implants into the buttocks to build a fuller, rounder, and more sensuous rear side.
    Patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and surrounding communities have an opportunity to receive buttock augmentation from board certified plastic surgeons at MBody.

    Candidacy

    Individuals with underdeveloped buttocks will usually make fantastic candidates for buttock augmentation in order to achieve a more proportionate figure. The procedure is equally effective for women and men. Women who are unhappy with the inadequate size of their buttocks or want to attain an ‘hour glass’ figure may make salient candidates for butt implants.
    Men with flat, poorly defined or saggy buttocks can enhance the shape of the buttocks to their liking with butt lift fat transfer procedure. People who are bothered about their disproportionately small buttocks, who want to look attractive and want their clothes to fit better, and who want to improve their self-confidence levels may make suitable candidates for buttock augmentation plastic surgery.

    Benefits

    Buttock augmentation with fat transfer injections will help to create definition in the buttocks and build a more prominent and sensuous backside. At the same time, this procedure offers two key advantages over butt implants:

    • Success rate of the fat transfer butt augmentation is higher because no synthetic implants are involved. The surplus fat is taken out from the patient’s own body, which makes it complete biocompatible. Body contours in the donor sites may also improve.
    • The procedure with fat transfer injections becomes relatively less invasive than with butt implants. The discomfort, downtime, and risks associated with the surgery are reduced with this treatment option.

    Board certified plastic surgeons at MBody receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and nearby areas for buttock augmentation.

    Procedure

    The procedure is usually completed in about 90 minutes to three hours. As a first step, the surgeon will harvest excess fatty tissue from one or more donor areas on the patient’s body. The fat removal procedure will be similar to traditional liposuction. The second step will involve sterilizing, purifying, and processing of the collected fat for re-injection into the targeted areas in the buttocks.
    The newly introduced fat tissue will bond with the existing tissue to create a natural, augmented look of the buttocks. About one-fourth of harvested fat cells are utilized in the fat grafting process. The fat transfer is accomplished using an extremely small needle to create smooth, even and natural looking curves in the desired areas.

    Recovery

    Following buttock augmentation, the patient will be confined to home for about one week. During this period, they should perform short walks at home frequently to promote blood flow, and avoid sitting directly on the buttocks. After a week, the patient typically returns to quiet, low intensity work for the first few days that does not involve sitting long on the buttocks.
    It is not uncommon for butt augmentation patients to make use of pillows under their thighs to sit without disrupting the healing process. A compression garment should be worn at all times as instructed by the surgeon.

    Brazilian Butt Lift Recovery Time

    Brazilian Butt Lift Recovery Time | Richmond Plastic Surgery | AshburnAlthough Brazilian butt lift is a relatively less invasive plastic surgery procedure, it involves a considerable recovery period. The location of the treated area is such that the patient will be required to avoid sitting directly on the buttocks for a few days, and allow the new shape of the buttocks to firm up and the skin and tissue to heal.
    MBody, led by board certified plastic surgeons, provides Brazilian butt lift to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and surrounding communities. The surgeon will discuss the recovery aspect in detail during the initial consultation.
     

    Estimated Downtime

    Most patients should be prepared for a downtime of about one week after Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery. Within a week, the donor sites as well as the treated area around the buttocks would have healed enough to allow the patient to resume their normal routine or go back to work. But during the first week, they should have plenty of rest, stay sufficiently hydrated, and perform mild walks at home a few times a day to keep up the blood flow.
    Patients who are not required to sit all day long at the workplace may return to work from the second week. In the second week, the patient should continue to avoid putting body weight directly on the buttocks to enable better healing. The patient should plan for the downtime in advance, apply for leave from work, and preferably have someone to assist at home during the first few days.
     

    Recovery Timeline

    After the first two days, the patient can remove the compression garment for gentle washing of the buttocks. At the end of the first week, they should visit the surgeon’s office to monitor the healing progress and possibly remove the sutures and drain tubes. During the recovery phase, the patient should refrain from smoking or taking blood thinning medications such as aspirin.
    From the second week, the patient can perform regular activities at home or work, but avoid sitting directly on the buttocks, if the healing is not adequate. In about three weeks’ time, the patient can resume activities such as squatting, stretching or more vigorous exercises. Around this time, the patient may stop wearing the compression garment and sit on the buttocks.
    While driving during the second or third week, the patient should sit comfortably on a pillow on the car seat, and should have stopped taking any pain meds. Activities such as bathing in a tub and swimming can be resumed in about one month. In about two to six months following the Brazilian butt lift surgery, most of the inflammation and discoloration should be eliminated. At that point, the patient may be fully healed.
    The patient may expose the buttock tissue to sunlight in about one year after the surgery. Experienced plastic surgeons at MBody receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and nearby areas for Brazilian butt lift surgery.

    Brazilian Butt Lift Before and After Photos

    Brazilian Butt Lift Before and After Photos | Richmond Plastic SurgeryBrazilian butt lift plastic surgery has the potential to dramatically transform loose and thin buttocks into a fuller, rounder and well-contoured backside. At the time of initial consultation, the surgeon will discuss various aspects of the procedure, and may also present Brazilian butt lift before and after photographs.
    The first goal of the surgeon will be to educate the patient about the procedure and help them make a well-considered decision. MBody, led by board certified plastic surgeons, provides Brazilian butt lift to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and surrounding communities.
     

    What are Brazilian Butt Lift Before and After Images?

    Before and after images in case of Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery refer to a set of pictures pertaining to an earlier patient who has undergone the same surgery with successful results. The set includes images taken prior to the procedure and after the procedure at a stage when the post-operative bruising and swelling is eliminated and full effects of the surgery are visible.
    The surgeon will take care to ensure that these photographs are obtained with the clear consent of the patient, and shown to new patients in a discreet manner. The patient’s identity may be kept confidential as required. The surgeon’s only purpose behind this exercise is to use these photos as a visual tool to explain its effectiveness to new patients and help them make the right choices.
    These photos will be many times displayed brilliantly on the website as is explained down below. Now what this means is that the patient can grasp outstanding details without ever leaving the home. Not even if you spent one hour listening to the surgeon’s description would be equivalent to just one before and after picture and the website will probably have more than one picture.
    Digital technology has altered the landscape of private and public organizations. Digital technology is a game changer and is being utilized by so many. The plastic surgery domain is certainly one of them much to the delight of so many patients and potential ones. Now patients can make deeply personal decisions about this without ever speaking to anyone and without anyone even knowing what is on their mind in regards to a Brazilian butt lift and other types of plastic surgery procedures.
     

    Benefits 

    Many patients are unclear about the difference between traditional butt implant surgery and Brazilian butt lift. Some patients may be concerned whether a less invasive fat transfer procedure such as Brazilian butt lift will meet their cosmetic goals. The surgeon may recommend significant fat transfer for some patients, while only a limited surgery for others as per their needs.
    In all such cases, the patient will have a much better idea about the procedure and will be in a position to make informed decisions when they have access to Brazilian butt lift before and after photos. MBody plastic surgeons receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and nearby areas for this procedure.
     

    Staying Realistic

    It is natural for a patient to be excited about the prospect of attaining a more youthful and well-contoured posterior with Brazilian butt lift. But the surgeon’s priority will be to ensure that the patient does not form unrealistic expectations, which could lead to a disappointment later on.
    Therefore, they will prefer to present before and after photos at the very first appointment. Once the patient knows clearly what the procedure can or cannot do for them, they will be able to keep realistic expectations and draw more satisfaction in the end.
     

    Online Images

    The surgeon may choose to provide Brazilian butt lift before and after photos on their practice website and social media platforms such as Facebook, Google+, Instagram, and Pinterest. New patients can conveniently review the photos online even before they make up their mind about visiting the surgeon’s office for a personal consultation.

    How much does a Brazilian Butt Lift Cost?

    Brazilian Butt Lift Cost | Richmond Plastic Surgery | Vienna | McLeanBrazilian butt lift plastic surgery is viewed by many patients not just as an investment in their cosmetic appearance, but also as a way to boost their self-confidence. However, the procedure is elective in nature, and will not be covered by health insurance.

    The plastic surgeon will explain all aspects of the procedure, including its costs during the pre-op consultation.

    Price Factors

    The cost of Brazilian butt lift plastic surgery can vary from one practice to another and even from one patient to another at the same practice in some cases. The following factors may influence the actual cost of procedure:
    Geographical Factor
    Location of the practice plays a key role in determining the costs of a cosmetic procedure such as Brazilian butt lift. Major urban centers will typically have higher real estate costs and the overall living costs may also be higher. Therefore, practices located in such areas will usually have slightly higher costs of procedures than the ones located in smaller towns or remote areas.
     
    Fee Charged by the Surgeon
    The plastic surgeon may charge a fee for Brazilian butt lift according to their skills, experience and reputation in the field of body lift and body contouring procedures. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, patients should choose the best surgeon for their needs, and focus on getting the procedure done right rather than allow their decision to be governed by secondary concerns such as the surgeon’s fee.
     
    Anesthesia and Surgical Room Costs
    While Brazilian butt lift may be performed using local anesthesia in many cases, some patients may need to have general anesthesia. This will involve the fee of the anesthesiologist or the registered anesthetist nurse who will be present throughout the surgery to monitor the patient’s condition. The procedure may be performed at a hospital, an accredited ambulatory surgical center or a private surgical suite. The costs and benefits in each case will vary.
     

    Extent of Surgery

    In a situation where the patient requires substantial fat transfer to the buttocks, the surgeon may have to perform liposuction in multiple donor sites to draw the necessary fat tissue. Some patients may need an additional body lift procedure to achieve more uniform results. Patients suffering from any chronic condition may have a longer recovery, which could have fiscal implications for working people.
    In view of such situations, the actual costs of Brazilian butt lift may slightly vary in each case. MBody receives patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and nearby areas for various surgical procedures, including Brazilian butt lift.
    Patients should explore their financing options well in advance, if they want to avoid making full upfront payment, and prefer to pay in convenient monthly installments.

    What is a Brazilian Butt Lift?

    What is a Brazilian Butt Lift? | Richmond Plastic Surgery | ViennaBrazilian butt lift has emerged as one of the more sought-after plastic surgery procedures in the last few years. Many people, including those in the younger age groups, want to achieve an enhanced shape of the buttocks to create an attractive posterior profile. A Brazilian butt lift can create dramatic improvements to the buttock contour and add more definition to it.
    The procedure is different from traditional buttock augmentation surgery, and should only be performed by an experienced surgeon with expertise in this area. Board certified plastic surgeons at MBody provide Brazilian butt lift surgery to patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and surrounding communities.
     

    Less Invasive Surgery

    One of the reasons behind the popularity of Brazilian butt lift is that the surgery is fairly uncomplicated and less invasive. The surgeon can reshape and lift the buttocks simply by performing fat transfer from areas such as the abdomen or thighs to the buttocks.
    With this simple fat transfer plastic surgery, it is possible to transform thin, flat and droopy backside into a perky and curvaceous one. People with uneven or asymmetric buttocks can also benefit from this procedure and acquire more natural looking buttock contours in a less invasive manner.
     

    Procedure

    A Brazilian butt lift surgery may be completed in about two to three hours, depending on the extent of buttock enhancement involved. The procedure may be performed using general anesthesia or IV sedation with local anesthesia. As a first step, the plastic surgeon will harvest excess fat tissue from one or more donor sites in the patient’s body.
    The fat removal part will be similar to liposuction, where the surgeon will insert a thin cannula into donor sites through very small incisions. Fatty tissue will be carefully suctioned out, leaving slimmer, and more attractive contours in the donor site. The second step will be to sterilize, purify, and process the collected fat tissue for injecting in the targeted areas of the buttocks.
    The harvested fat cells will bond with the existing tissue in the buttocks through this fat grafting process. The surgeon will make use of an extremely small needle to inject the harvested fat cells into the musculature and deep fat layers of the buttocks. This step will be performed with high precision to achieve a smooth, even, and natural looking appearance of the buttocks.
    In most cases, nearly one-fourth of the harvested fat cells will be utilized in the fat grafting process. MBody receives patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg, and nearby areas for Brazilian butt lift surgery.
     

    Recovery

    It is important to allow the grafted fatty tissue in the buttocks to heal and acquire a firm new shape. The patient should avoid sitting directly on the buttocks for the first one to two weeks. They may also have to take at least a week off work, particularly if it is a sedentary job.
