Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery

Natural curves, safely sculpted with your own body

A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) uses liposuction to remove excess fat from areas like the abdomen, waist, or back, then reinjects that fat into the buttocks to add volume, projection, and a more contoured silhouette — using your own tissue rather than an implant. Because the donor areas are sculpted at the same time, most patients also see a more defined waist-to-hip contour alongside fuller, rounder curves. Dra. Sofía Rincón places the fat using a subdermal, ultrasound-guided technique that keeps the graft above the muscle fascia rather than injecting into the gluteal muscle — the technique recommended by plastic surgery safety task forces to reduce the risk of fat embolism, the rare but serious complication linked to older BBL methods. Tijuana has become a trusted destination for this procedure, pairing board-certified surgical safety with significantly lower costs than the U.S. — just 7 minutes from the San Diego border.

It's now been almost a month since my surgery (breast lift, lipo, BBL and tummy tuck), I love my body, recovery has gone very well, and she always answers and stays on top of everything. My results are exactly what I asked for!"

Answers to Your Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

We answer the most common questions about BBL surgery, safety, cost, candidacy, and recovery in Tijuana.

Candidacy is determined during a personalized medical consultation, either in person in Tijuana or virtually if you're visiting from abroad. Dra. Sofía Rincón evaluates whether you have enough donor fat for a safe graft, your overall health, weight stability, and your goals for shape and projection, to recommend the right fat transfer plan for your anatomy.

A BBL uses your own fat, harvested by liposuction from areas like the abdomen or back and reinjected into the buttocks, so results look and feel natural and the donor areas get sculpted at the same time. Butt implants use a silicone device instead of your own tissue, which can add volume where there isn't enough donor fat but doesn't offer the same dual-contouring benefit. Dra. Sofía will recommend the right option based on your body fat and goals.

The rare but serious risks historically associated with BBL surgery come from injecting fat into the gluteal muscle, where it can enter large blood vessels. Dra. Sofía uses a subdermal, ultrasound-guided technique that places fat only above the muscle fascia, never into the muscle itself — the approach recommended by plastic surgery safety task forces specifically to reduce this risk. Every surgery is also performed at a certified hospital with board-certified anesthesiology support.

Our office in Zona Urbana Río is only 7 minutes from the San Diego border (San Ysidro crossing). We offer a smooth, bilingual, cross-border protocol: we start with a detailed virtual evaluation, help coordinate the logistics of your visit, and recommend hotels and certified recovery centers so your experience is comfortable and stress-free.

To protect the newly transferred fat cells, most patients avoid sitting or lying directly on the buttocks for 2 to 3 weeks, using a BBL pillow to redistribute pressure to the thighs and lower back when sitting is unavoidable. A compression garment is worn over the liposuctioned areas for 4 to 6 weeks, and we design a lymphatic drainage protocol with regular check-ins with Dra. Sofía to support fat survival and a smooth recovery.

Yes — a BBL already includes liposuction of the donor areas, and it's commonly combined with a tummy tuck and breast lift as part of a Mommy Makeover for a complete post-pregnancy transformation. Dra. Sofía carefully evaluates surgical time and your clinical parameters to make sure any combination is safe and comfortable.

A BBL only requires the small liposuction access incisions used for fat harvesting, typically just a few millimeters long and placed in discreet, hard-to-see locations. There's no incision on the buttocks themselves, since fat is injected rather than placed through an open cut. These tiny marks fade significantly within the first few months.

Patient safety is the absolute priority. Every surgery is performed exclusively at certified hospitals with high-specialty infrastructure, state-of-the-art operating rooms, an intensive care unit, and support from board-certified anesthesiologists and specialized surgical nurses.

We accept bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and cross-border payment arrangements. At your consultation, you'll receive a clear, itemized quote in writing, with no surprise charges, breaking down surgeon's fees, hospitalization, and supplies.

We recommend scheduling your consultation 2 to 4 weeks in advance to comfortably coordinate your pre-op tests and surgery date, especially if you're planning to travel from the US or another state.

Price depends on how much fat needs to be transferred, how many areas are liposuctioned for the donor fat, and factors like anesthesia and operating room time. Many patients find total costs in Tijuana significantly lower than comparable surgery in the US, even after factoring in travel. Your consultation includes a detailed, itemized quote showing exactly what's covered — before you commit to traveling to Tijuana.

Once the transferred fat establishes its own blood supply in the first few months, the fat cells that survive are permanent. Some of the transferred fat is naturally reabsorbed while results settle, and how much varies from patient to patient, which Dra. Sofía will go over with you at your consultation. Once results settle, they're long-lasting, though significant weight changes over time can still affect your shape, just as they would with your natural fat elsewhere in the body.
