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.
