BBL Revision

What is a Brazilian Butt Lift Revision?

A BBL revision is a secondary cosmetic surgery designed for patients who wish to improve or correct the results of a previous procedure. It focuses on adjusting areas where changes may have occurred over time, such as uneven contours, altered buttock volume, or irregular shape. Factors like weight gain, natural aging, or variations in healing can affect how the initial results settle, and a revision provides an opportunity to refine the overall outcome and restore a more balanced appearance.

Before & After

Reasons for BBL Revision

Reasons for BBL Revision

One of the most frequent concerns is that one side of the buttocks is noticeably different in size, shape, or projection from the other. This can be due to uneven fat distribution during the initial procedure.
The body naturally absorbs a portion of the fat transferred during a BBL (typically 30-50%). If a patient’s body absorbs too much fat, the results may be smaller than they desired, requiring a “touch-up” to add more volume.

This can happen if the fat is not injected evenly or if some of the fat cells don’t survive, leading to a lumpy or dimpled appearance. This is often described as “rippling” or “irregular contouring.”

The final shape may not be what the patient envisioned. This can include an overly “round” or “square” shape, an unnatural “ant deformity” (where the hips look too small and the buttocks too large), or a lack of definition.

In some cases, a patient may feel that the final result is too large or disproportionate to their body frame, especially after post-op swelling has subsided.

Although BBL incisions are typically small, poor healing or surgical technique can lead to prominent scars that the patient wishes to have corrected.

Our Ultrasound-
Guided
Technique

Our ultrasound-guided technique sets a new standard in safety and precision for secondary BBL procedures. Ultrasound-guided revision BBL differs from traditional methods by allowing Dr. Pazmiño to see exactly where the fat is being placed in real time, reducing risks and ensuring smoother, more natural contours. This advanced approach also enhances fat survival, as only the purest fat cells are carefully harvested, processed, and transferred to achieve lasting results. By combining innovation with artistry, our approach enables patients to achieve the refined outcome they envisioned, while prioritizing both safety and aesthetics.

Your Initial Consultation

Your initial consultation is a crucial step in planning your BBL revision. During this visit, Dr. Pazmiño will take the time to understand your goals and review your medical history in detail to ensure the safest approach. He may also request medical clearance from your primary care provider or a specialist to confirm that you are healthy enough for surgery. This thorough evaluation enables our team to design a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and to establish realistic expectations for your results.
BBL Revision Procedure in Miami, Florida Banner

BBL Revision
Procedure

A BBL revision is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort throughout the surgery. Before the procedure begins, patients will undergo anesthesia so they remain fully relaxed and pain-free. We provide a safe environment and careful monitoring.
To begin the revision process, Dr. Pazmiño makes small incisions in discreet locations. These entry points allow him to access the treatment areas with precision and minimize visible scarring. By keeping the incisions as minimal as possible, the procedure aims to achieve natural-looking results and a smooth recovery.
In cases where the previous procedure left uneven results or areas of over-projection, Dr. Pazmiño carefully removes excess fat using specialized thin tubes known as cannulas. This process helps refine the contours, smooth out irregularities, and create a more proportional appearance. The use of advanced techniques ensures the surrounding tissues are preserved while addressing stubborn fat that may have impacted the original outcome.
Some patients develop scar tissue after their initial surgery, which can affect both the feel and the look of the buttocks. During revision, Dr. Pazmiño works to release or adjust these areas of scar tissue so the new fat can settle more evenly. This step is crucial for achieving softer, more natural contours and minimizing any irregularities from the initial procedure.
After refining and preparing the area, Dr. Pazmiño reinjects purified fat into the buttocks to enhance projection and achieve the patient’s desired shape. The fat is strategically placed in layers to promote better survival of the transferred cells and create balanced, smooth results. His ultrasound-guided technique enables precise placement, allowing for the restoration of symmetry and an overall improved contour.
Once the fat transfer is finished and the contours have been refined, Dr. Pazmiño carefully closes the small incisions. He then ensures that the overall proportions are balanced and the buttocks reflect the patient’s desired shape. At this stage, dressings or compression garments may be applied to support healing and help maintain the new contour. This final step completes the revision process and sets the foundation for long-lasting results.

Add-On Procedures

Thigh Lift

A thigh lift targets areas of excess skin on the inner or outer thighs to create a smoother, more toned appearance. This procedure can be combined with a BBL revision to enhance overall body contour and proportion.

Tummy Tuck

A tummy tuck addresses sagging skin and weakened abdominal muscles to achieve a flatter, firmer belly. When paired with a BBL revision, it helps create a balanced and harmonious silhouette.

Recovery & Post-Operative Care

Recovery & Post-Operative Care

Patients return home the same day after their BBL revision and begin the recovery period in the comfort of their own home. During this time, it is crucial to follow all post-operative instructions from Dr. Pazmiño, including wound care and wearing a compression garment to support healing and minimize swelling. Patients should avoid applying direct pressure to the buttocks and perform gentle movements to promote circulation.
During the first week of the recovery process, patients continue wearing their compression garment and adhering closely to the surgeon’s instructions. Light activity is encouraged to promote circulation and reduce swelling, while avoiding prolonged sitting or any direct pressure on the buttocks. Most patients attend follow-up appointments during this period to ensure proper healing and address any concerns.
In weeks two through four, swelling begins to decrease, and patients can gradually resume normal activities while still taking care to protect the treated areas. Following post-operative instructions and attending follow-up appointments helps prevent complications, such as blood clots, and supports the desired outcome.
By weeks four to six, patients often notice significant improvements in comfort and contour. Continued adherence to wound care, wearing the compression garment as recommended, and avoiding pressure on the buttocks are crucial for supporting healing and achieving optimal results.
After six weeks, most patients can resume regular activities without restrictions. Follow-up appointments allow Dr. Pazmiño to evaluate the recovery process and confirm that the desired outcome is being achieved. Maintaining proper care and following the surgeon’s instructions during this period is crucial for long-term success. Complete recovery may take up to 12 months.
