Does A BBL Help A Saggy Butt?

A Brazilian butt lift surgery is slowly becoming one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures of the 21st century. While many patients who undergo the procedure want to add volume to the buttocks, many ask questions about the “lift” part of the name. Does a BBL help a saggy butt?

The answer depends on the causes of sagging in the buttocks. A frequent cause is extra skin or loss of laxity. If it is extra skin, unless minor, a BBL is likely not the best surgery to address this. A traditional buttock lift (similar to a tummy tuck but for the buttocks) is probably the best way to go. However, if it is only a small amount of extra skin in a young patient, there is a chance that adding fat may round out the buttocks enough to disguise the extra skin. These same principles usually apply to loss of laxity as well. 

If sagging is simply genetic or due to uneven distribution of fat, a Brazilian butt lift is more likely to make a difference and correct the look of sagginess. Adding fat to the areas with less volume can even out and round out the shape of the buttocks for a perkier look. 

Ultimately, the best procedure to address sagginess in the buttocks is best determined by Dr. Sessa during a consultation. To learn more, call us at 941-923-1736. You can also reach out online via Price Simulator, chat, and contact form.
