When you dream of achieving a stunning, sculpted figure, a Brazilian butt lift (BBL) can be the perfect solution. At Destin Plastic Surgery, I specialize in this transformative procedure that not only enhances your curves but also boosts your confidence.
Imagine a procedure that removes surplus fat from one part of your body and uses it to add volume to reshape your buttocks, giving you a beautifully contoured figure. This double-benefit procedure is becoming increasingly popular, but how much does a BBL cost?
In this blog post, I’ll walk you through the factors influencing the price to help you make an informed decision about taking the first step toward your dream body.
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
During a Brazilian butt lift, your plastic surgeon uses liposuction to remove excess fat from areas such as the hips, waist, abdomen, or thighs and then injects that fat into the buttocks. This process adds volume to your backside and sculpts your body wherever your fat is collected, whether that means a thinner waist, more shapely thighs, or slimmer hips. It’s a 2-in-1 procedure that helps you achieve a more balanced and attractive figure.

YOUR BBL in Destin
Surgical Standards & Expertise
Typically performed in surgery centers staffed by for-hire doctors and nurses with varying experience. Often, the surgeon is selected on the day of surgery.
Your procedure is performed in an accredited surgical facility by an experienced team that has completed thousands of BBL procedures. Your surgeon personally reviews your potential results using digital imaging before surgery.
Fat Purification & Graft Quality
Often uses standard fat grafting methods that include a mix of fat cells, damaged cells, and fluids. This variability in fat quality leads to less predictable and shorter-lasting results.
Fat is suctioned into an advanced filtration system, ensuring that 95% of the injected fat cells are healthy and viable for optimal, long-term aesthetic results.
Injection Method
If available, ultrasound guidance might be used.
Ultrasound guidance is always used for the safest, most precise results.
Injection Incision Site Management & Wound Care
Injection site incisions are typically left open for fluid drainage, allowing fluid to leak on your bedding and clothing.
Incisions are carefully closed, minimizing fluid leakage for a cleaner, more sanitary, and more comfortable recovery.
Recovery Environment
Recovery often involves staying in shared post-op accommodations where multiple patients have recovered in the same space.
You recover in the comfort of your own home, ensuring a clean and familiar environment.
Fat Retention & Long-Term Results
Early results appear larger due to significant post-procedure swelling; in many cases, about 50% to 60% of the initial fullness decreases as swelling subsides.
Our expertise keeps your early results true to size; you'll lose about a 15% reduction in volume as your body heals for long-lasting results.
Cost & Convenience
While results can be good, out-of-town patients often face additional costs and inconveniences, including travel expenses, hotel stays, dining out, and bringing a companion for assistance.
Achieve great results without the added hassle—recover comfortably in your own home, with access to your own kitchen and support system, all without the extra travel and lodging costs.

Factors Influencing the Cost of a Brazilian Butt Lift
The cost of a Brazilian butt lift varies significantly based on several factors. Understanding these variables can help you make an informed decision and set realistic expectations for your BBL surgery cost.
1. Surgeon’s Expertise and Reputation
Highly experienced and reputable surgeons like me may charge more for their services. My extensive experience in fat grafting techniques and use of advanced technologies such as the REVOLVE™ fat grafting system ensure you receive top-notch care and results, which can affect the overall cost.
2. Geographic Location
The location of the clinic can also impact the cost. For instance, a Brazilian butt lift in areas like Florida may be higher due to greater demand and cost of living.
3. Procedure Complexity
Each patient’s unique body composition and desired outcome can influence the complexity of the surgery. More complex procedures involving significant fat removal and precise injection may cost more due to the additional time, technology, and expertise required. For your safety, I always perform BBL fat transfer using ultrasound imaging to guide accurate fat placement.
4. Facility Fees
The surgery costs include fees for the surgical facility, anesthesia, and postoperative care. High-quality, accredited facilities prioritizing patient safety and comfort can contribute to a higher overall BBL surgery cost.
5. Post-Surgical Care
Comprehensive postoperative care, including follow-up appointments and recovery garments, is crucial for achieving the best results. These services are typically included in the overall cost, ensuring you receive the support needed for a smooth recovery.
The Benefits of the REVOLVE Fat Grafting System
I use the innovative REVOLVE fat grafting system to enhance the results of a Brazilian butt lift. This system processes fat tissue quickly, yielding highly purified fat grafts. Patients experience less swelling and no drainage, simplifying recovery and enhancing the overall experience. The use of advanced technology such as REVOLVE is reflected in Brazilian butt lift costs since it makes the procedure safer and provides superior outcomes.

How Is a Brazilian Butt Lift Done?
I begin the process by harvesting fat from other areas of your body using specialized liposuction techniques. The fat is then purified to remove impurities and excess fluids. I inject the purified fat into the buttocks using specialized cannulas, layering the fat methodically to ensure smooth, natural-looking contours. This meticulous approach to fat grafting contributes to the overall cost and provides the best possible results for each patient.
What Does a Brazilian Butt Lift Look Like?
Results from a Brazilian butt lift include fuller, more rounded buttocks and a more attractively sculpted body. Patients often find that clothes fit better, and they feel more confident in their appearance. Each patient’s outcome is unique, and discussing your goals during your consultation can help you understand what to expect.
