Bilge enlargement (BBL)

Using your own fat is a safe way to add some volume to your buttocks. The fat is removed by liposuction from your abdomen or thighs, for example. It is then injected through small injection holes under the skin of the buttocks.

Here's how it works

Consult

During the consultation, we will discuss your needs and estimate how much fat we can obtain with liposuction, so you can get a good idea of the results you can expect.

Treatment

During the procedure, we perform both liposuction and lipofilling through a few small holes.

Recovery

After a few weeks, you are fully recovered.

Result

The final result is visible after about 1 year.

Aftercare

After surgery, you will wear an elastic suit for at least 6 weeks. During this period, the treated area should be massaged daily (lymphatic drainage).
