Myths Busted: Top Things People Get Dead Wrong About Brazilian Butt Lifts

Young woman in white bikini receiving injection in hip area for Brazilian Butt Lift procedure, highlighting body contouring and aesthetic enhancement. Think you know everything about Brazilian Butt Lifts? Think again. From wild internet myths to TikTok horror stories, misinformation about BBLs spreads fast. But the truth? This transformative procedure has come a long way, and it’s safer, smarter, and more stunning than ever before.

At Dr. Fig Med Spa in Tampa, FL, Dr. Ronald Figueredo brings over 12 years of experience to every cosmetic service he provides. Known for specializing in Lipo 360 with fat transfer to the hips and buttocks, he crafts the sculpted hourglass curves patients crave, without the overdone look. His precision, advanced technique, and eye for proportion make him a trusted expert in BBL surgery.

BBL Is Just About a Bigger Butt

This one misses the point entirely. A real BBL is about proportion, shape, and balance. It’s not just adding volume, it’s about creating curves in all the right places:

  • Lipo 360 slims the waist: Removing fat from the midsection gives the illusion of a fuller backside.
  • Fat is sculpted into the hips and butt: Enhancing contour while maintaining harmony with your frame.
  • The result? A snatched silhouette: Think tiny waist, smooth curves, and natural balance.

BBLs aren’t just about going big. They’re about beauty that fits your unique shape. That’s why every consultation with Dr. Figueredo begins with understanding your body’s needs.

Fat Just Disappears After a BBL

While it’s true that not all transferred fat survives, most of it does when done right. Up to 70-80% of the fat remains long-term if proper aftercare is followed. That means:

  • No sitting directly on your butt for two weeks.
  • Wearing compression garments to reduce swelling.
  • Maintaining a stable weight to protect results.

Trust the process and you’ll keep the curves you worked for, long after your recovery ends.

BBLs Are Unsafe

Not when you’re in the hands of an expert. Dr. Figueredo uses advanced fat grafting techniques and prioritizes safety at every step. Here’s what keeps patients safe:

  • Fat is never injected into muscle, only above it.
  • Ultrasound guidance ensures precise placement.
  • The procedure is performed in a licensed, accredited surgical suite.

BBLs done right are not only beautiful, they’re smart and secure. Choosing the right provider makes all the difference.

Only Young Women Get BBLs

Not even close. Women in their 30s, 40s, and beyond are excellent candidates. As long as you’re in good health and have enough fat for transfer, age is just a number. In fact, older patients often love how a BBL restores youthful curves lost over time.

Your dream body doesn’t expire. Dr. Fig helps make it happen at any age.
