BBL Operation

When you think of prominent and full hips, you may think of the Kardashian family or Jennifer Lopez’s music videos. Despite having a body structure reminiscent of Latin American women, thanks to the development of medical technologies and the many advantages of aesthetic surgery, all men and women can achieve the full, prominent and attractive hips they want.

Although sports and nutrition are necessary for a healthy life in every moment of our lives, they may not always be sufficient for a proper body. Every part of our body has its own unique characteristics. Some parts tend to sag or get fat, while others may remain thin or small. In such cases, aesthetic surgical procedures, which we apply effectively with high patient satisfaction, come into play. With aesthetic surgery, we can reshape our entire body.

Today, aesthetic operations are performed using different techniques. When it comes to prominent hips, BBL aesthetics should be mentioned. BBL and Liposuction are the most common techniques. It is the most popular form because the person’s own fat is used and the size and shape of the hip is naturally corrected without the use of implants.

What is the preparation process for BBL surgery?

Since BBL is performed under general anesthesia, there are some points to be considered before the operation. We can briefly summarize these points as follows:

1- Our patients should clearly communicate their expectations and needs to us during the consultation examination. It is important that our patients’ expectations are realistic and that they share their wishes with us without hesitation.

2- It is important that our patients share their health information with us during the consultation examination. Blood pressure, sugar, thyroid levels should be checked before surgery.

3- The operation is performed under general anesthesia. In some patients, local anesthesia may be preferred depending on the size of the procedure. In order to determine whether our patients are suitable for anesthesia and to find out if there is a health problem that prevents this situation, they need to pass the tests we want them to do at this stage.

4- The use of blood thinners is one of the risk factors for plastic surgery. All blood thinners, both in pill and ready-to-use injection form, such as ecopirine, aspirin and oxapar should be discontinued an average of 10-15 days before the date of surgery. However, before discontinuing these drugs, the prescribing doctor should be informed and their guidance should be included in the process.

5- The consumption of all herbal teas such as rosehip, green tea, cherry stalk, fasting grass should be stopped 10 days before the butt injection procedure. These herbal teas are thought to have a blood thinning effect.

6- Vitamin pills and nutritional supplements should not be consumed during the preparation process.

Consultation is a meeting where we share the BBL operation plans and the operation protocol to be followed with the patient. In this examination, we evaluate the patient’s physique and fat ratio. The areas with fat accumulation are determined and the areas where fat can be removed are evaluated. We then determine the desired shape of the hip (such as an inverted heart or a more rounded appearance) and inform the patient how much fat is required on average for this shape.

There is no specific measure of fat intake in butt fat injection surgery. Each patient’s body structure and the amount of fat they need to shape their hips are different.
