What Is A Brazilian Butt Lift?
The Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is one of the fastest-growing aesthetic treatments for women and men in the U.S. and around the world. This body contouring surgery allows individuals an effective way of achieving rounder and shapelier buttocks without using implants. Significant weight loss, aging, as well as genetics can cause a flat rear end. In today's times, a fuller, shapelier rear end is considered desirable. A Brazilian butt lift adds volume to the patient's buttocks area to create the appropriate roundness and shape. It is accomplished through a specialized fat grafting and transfer process, which utilizes liposuction to remove unwanted fat pockets from a targeted area of your body and then transfers it into your buttocks. At Iteld Plastic Surgery, we are committed to using our aesthetic expertise and years of experience to help you achieve your desired look through Brazilian butt lifts and other cosmetic procedures. Reach out to our practice in Chicago, IL to schedule a consultation with Dr. Lawrence Iteld, and discover how this popular treatment can help you attain a shapelier, perkier rear end.
How Does A Brazilian Butt Lift Work?
As with all of our cosmetic surgeries, Brazilian butt lift treatments at Iteld Plastic Surgery are performed using narcotics-free techniques to keep you comfortable throughout your recovery. First, Dr. Iteld will harvest fat from your body using a specialized technique designed to preserve the cells. After the fat is purified, it will be injected into your buttocks to create a rounder, symmetrical shape. Your results should look subtly enhanced but still appear natural. Afterward, you can expect some tenderness, as well as swelling and bruising, but these will heal in time.
What Are the Benefits of A Brazilian Butt Lift?
In addition to yielding a curvier, more appealing butt, a BBL at our facility in Chicago, IL provides some significant benefits, including:
- A more natural feel compared to implants or fillers
- Removes unwanted fat from elsewhere on the body, such as the stomach, legs, hips, or love handles
- Gives your buttocks a proportional, symmetrical appearance
- Results are noticeable almost immediately
- Less risk of complications compared to synthetic fillers or implants
Iteld Plastic Surgery Reviews
Wonderful team - could not be happier with the results - I had a great experience. Dr. Iteld and his team treated me with respect, were compassionate towards my concerns, and were very thorough in their explanations of what to expect and the step by step process for preparing and recovering from surgery. Staff offered after hours support for any concerns that may have arisen post surgery (thankfully I’ve had none) and treated me very well. I could not be happier with the results of my surgery and the care provided by Dr. Iteld and his team. Dr. Iteld and his team were very inclusive towards the lgbtq+ community, always using my preferred name and pronouns and has performed many of these surgeries. Queer folks looking for gender affirming surgery are in good hands here.
I recently underwent a breast reduction surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Dr. Itedl, Kimmy, and the receptionist Ashley were incredibly professional, guiding me through every step and addressing all of my concerns. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the recovery process was much easier than I anticipated. I’m 5’3 and 120lbs with an original cup size of a G. Dr. Itedl nailed the shape and areola size of my breast to match perfectly to my frame. One of the biggest benefits has been the relief from upper back, neck, and lower back pain, which was the main reason I opted for the procedure. The results look so natural, and the scars are already starting to fade. If you’re considering breast reduction surgery, I highly recommend it. It has been truly life-changing for me. The outcome has been everything I hoped for and more!
Kimmy is a phenomenal injector and is extremely knowledgeable about PRF/EZ Gel, energy based treatments, scarring, and her insight and education about facial anatomy, the aging process, and treating general cosmetic concerns for various ethnic skin types is extensive and surpasses any other injector I’ve encountered before. She is warm, patient, very empathetic, and I always feel fully heard and cared for during my appointments. She is so friendly, dedicated and passionate about what she does, and she truly shines in her role. Iteld Plastic Surgery (and her patients) are so lucky to have her! She’s a true gem! Keep up the good work!
I have made an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Iteld. First, as most should know, liposuction is NOT for weight loss, but "body conturing", though after a procedure, "minimal" weight loss may occur. Secondly, it is important that good research should be done BEFORE considering this procedure. DO NOT SETTLE for just anyone. Dr. Iteld is a highly accredited plastic surgeon. Even before making my appointment, I was extremely impressed by the patient, kind, informative and professional attention from one of his staff members. Rarely does one find such people these days. So, whether I am a candidate for this procedure or not, and especially as a retired medical professional, myself, I can honestly say, I KNOW I chose the right professional and staff, who are in a beautiful setting with plenty of parking. Good luck to all who are interested in an appropriate surgeon and procedure !
I had an incredible experience at Iteld Plastic Surgery, thanks to Kimmy! She took so much time with me, ensuring that I felt comfortable and understood every step of the process. Her attention to detail is unmatched—she’s meticulous and thorough, making me feel confident and ready for my wedding day. On top of that, Kimmy is soooo sweet and a pleasure to be around! I can’t recommend her and the office enough!

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get implants or a fat transfer?
To improve the shape and size of your buttocks, you get butt augmentation with either silicone implants or fat grafting, which is commonly called a Brazilian butt lift. In your initial consultation, Dr. Iteld will talk to you about both methods and help you decide which best matches your body and goals. He will also examine your body to find the best areas that would benefit from liposuction (typically the thighs, back, or stomach). You may not be a candidate for a BBL if your body fat percentage is too low.
How long will my results last?
Although some fat might be reabsorbed after your transfer, the majority of the fat will stay in their new location for many years. To keep your results, you should maintain a steady weight since major weight loss or gain will affect your BBL results. This is why Dr. Iteld highly recommends you be at a healthy weight before your Brazilian butt lift so it's easy for you to maintain it.
Will a Brazilian butt lift remove loose skin?
The name of the surgery, Brazilian butt lift, is confusing since it isn't actually a butt lift (gluteoplasty), which addresses loose skin from the buttocks. However, the extra volume added to your buttocks during a BBL can fill out some loose skin. If you have moderate to severe loose skin in your buttocks, you may combine a gluteoplasty with a BBL. Dr. Iteld can go over your options based on your goals and physical exam in your initial consultation.
