The term “BBL” has become synonymous with desirable curves and a voluminous figure. Some days, it can seem like everyone has received this procedure, from A-list celebrities to your coworker in accounting. As a result, you may be considering this treatment for yourself.
However, our experts at Southwest Michigan Plastic Surgery & Med Spa would like to tell you about a superior treatment option.
While a Brazilian butt lift can add new volume to your figure, our experts believe the body lift is a safer, more effective option for enhancing your aesthetic confidence. Read on to learn about the body lift procedure and why it outshines a Brazilian butt lift treatment in Kalamazoo.
How the Body Lift Works
The body lift is a surgical procedure that “lifts” your features, resulting in a tighter figure.

During your procedure at Southwest Michigan Plastic Surgery, co-founder and surgeon Dr. Elluru will make an incision around the lower body. Then, he lifts the loose skin and removes the excess to create a tighter, more contoured appearance.
Using this simple technique, our providers can improve the appearance and shape of several parts of the body, including the abdomen, groin, and buttocks, for lasting, potentially permanent, results.
As opposed to the body lift, the Brazilian butt lift treatment in Kalamazoo actually adds new volume to the treatment area. During this procedure, a provider may extract from one part of the body, purify it, and inject it into the body in a more desired location. This process can result in serious complications, and the results may wane as the body reabsorbs the fat.
The Downsides of the Brazilian Butt Lift Process
The Brazilian butt lift uses fat transfer technology to provide new volume to the buttocks. However, this process comes with risks. Improper fat transfer can have serious effects on the patient’s health.
For instance, fat injected improperly can cause a fat embolism. This occurs when fat particles block the bloodstream, which causes serious complications.
Fat injected in improper places can also cause fat necrosis. When the part of the body receiving additional fat is too small to handle the new volume, the fat can harden.
However, when we pair fat injections with the body lift, we only inject small amounts of fat to supplement the results. This seriously lessens the risk of complications.
