Fat transfer for BBL

Fat Transfer for BBL

By Arian Mowlavi / March 31, 2022 / Comments Off on Fat Transfer for BBL

Fat transfer for BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) also called fat grafting, for body shaping has become popular in the U.S. and other countries. 

The larger, shapelier buttocks originated in Brazil, where the standard of beauty embraces the fuller female bottom. The U.S., by contrast, was focused on breast enlargement. Today, fat transfer for BBL is one of the fastest-growing cosmetic surgeries, especially among the Millenials. This is partly due to the focus that celebrities like Kim Kardashian have brought to the public eye. 

These body-sculpting procedures start with precisely controlled liposuction on problem regions like the belly, inner and outer upper legs, upper abdomen, and back. A BBL with fat transfer requires more fat, as a rule than other areas as it takes a relatively large amount of fat to make a noticeable difference.

Healthy fat must be preserved to give the surgeon the necessary amount to create a sculpted result. The method of liposuction used in this process affects how much fat is available for harvesting without damaging the cells. For example, with Laser lipo, the heat can damage fat, lessening the amount of fat suitable for transplant. With VASER ultrasound liposuction, the maximum amount of viable fat can be harvested as this method is far more gentle and does minimal damage to fat cells and surrounding tissues.

After the fat has been purified, it is injected into the areas where you want to see more volume, projection, or a curvier shape.

Transferred fat is softly molded during a body-sculpting procedure to generate smooth, rounded curves and a new feminine form. It’s the all-natural way to a curvier, shapelier you! It can bulk up the pectoralis area and create an athletic BBL for men.

Benefits of Fat Transfer Body Sculpting

Since fat grafting uses your own fat, you have no risk of rejection or allergic reaction, and the results look natural, providing the proportions are optimal. 

When fat grafting is used to enhance the shape and size of the buttocks, a Brazilian Butt Lift produces instant, long-lasting results. The hourglass curves are stunning when done with other body sculpting, like waistline snatching or rounding out hip dips.

Weight loss and exercise alone may not always be enough to get our desired figure or physique. Patients receive multiple benefits from fat-transfer treatments, which dramatically improve the form and proportion of their bodies in the hands of a talented and artistic surgeon. Enhancing attractiveness is a big self-esteem booster.

Male Brazilian Butt Lift – The Male BBL

By Arian Mowlavi / June 4, 2019 / Comments Off on Male Brazilian Butt Lift – The Male BBL

A Brazilian Butt Lift for men is quite different than a female Brazilian Butt Lift. This results from the inherent aesthetic and anatomical differences between the male and female buttocks. Generally speaking, the female butt is more fluffy and full overall. During a female Brazilian Butt Lift, we fill the lateral buttocks along the upper, middle, and lower regions. We may even fill the lateral hips. The goal is to round out the female buttocks. In contrast, male butts are more square in shape. During a male Brazilian Butt Lift (male BBL), we fill only the upper lateral gluteus medius muscle and sometimes the lower lateral subcutaneous region to square off that region of the buttocks. In a male, we avoid the injection of fat into the lateral dimple in order to maintain a more muscular and masculine shape.

Another key difference in the male BBL is is the addition of fat to the central buttocks. In females, we add fat to the central buttocks because this action increases projection—the desired outcome. In males, we do not because increased projection is not aesthetically appealing.

Breast Surgery: Even Men Are Doing It

By Arian Mowlavi / May 16, 2019 / Comments Off on Breast Surgery: Even Men Are Doing It

When it comes to surgery for men, it is of utmost importance to avoid any telltale signs of surgery. These signs include contour irregularities or lengthy incision lines which give result in an operated appearance. Men, like women, want to look their best but are timider with sharing that they have had cosmetic surgery. Therefore, it is critical to design male surgeries that create natural results, avoiding any and all signs of surgery. Dr. Mowlavi has spent his career perfecting male breast surgery, i.e. gynecomastia, in order to avoid and correct operative deformities.
The most common deformity observed is a divot that appears underneath the nipple and areola. It results from a gynecomastia procedure performed using a lumpectomy rather than techniques designed specifically for gynecomastia. What you have to understand is that the fullness felt and visible under the areola is not a round lump but a plateau of glandular tissue. As such, it needs to be removed using more of a tangential excision with a smooth peripheral border transition.

Every patient’s excision depth needs to be customized and gauged by the soft tissue fullness throughout the breast in order to avoid any contour divot deformities. The second most common deformity that one should avoid involves a lateral divot created just lateral to the nipple and areola. This area contains a lack of fat as well as tight muscle to skin suspensory ligaments that will create further pulling and concavity if one removes the little fat that is present. As such, it is critical to not remove any soft tissue from this area.
