Q. What Is HERSHE Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure?
A. The HERSHE Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a fat grafting procedure designed to enhance your curves and create a well-proportioned silhouette. This technique not only adds volume and definition to the buttocks but also reshapes the donor areas for a more contoured and balanced figure. The results are soft, natural-looking, and tailored to complement your unique body proportions, making it an ideal choice for those seeking long-lasting enhancement without implants.
Q. How Does the Procedure Work?
A. The HERSHE BBL involves extracting excess fat from areas such as the abdomen, ribs, or thighs using advanced fat harvesting techniques. This fat is then purified and carefully injected into the buttocks, pelvic region, or hip dips to add volume and enhance definition. The process not only enhances the targeted areas but also sculpts the donor areas for a slimmer, more balanced overall silhouette.
Q. What Is the Recovery Time?
A. The time for returning to daily life may vary depending on the individual's condition. However, recovery usually takes 1 to 2 weeks for most daily activities without significant difficulty. Major swelling and bruising typically occur 2 to 3 days after the procedure and subside within about 7 days. Minor swelling may take up to 1 month to fully resolve. Light walking is recommended to help reduce swelling and promote healing.
Q. Can I Lie Down or Sit Immediately After the Procedure?
A. After a HERSHE BBL, it’s important to avoid putting direct pressure on the treated areas to ensure the fat grafts settle and integrate properly. It is recommended to avoid sitting or lying on your back for extended periods. If sitting is necessary, get up and move around periodically. Initially, sitting may be uncomfortable, so using a soft cushion for support can help reduce pressure on the area and enhance comfort. Protecting the enhanced areas while maintaining comfort is crucial during recovery.
Q. How Long Do the Results Last?
A. Results are typically long-lasting, especially when maintaining a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle. However, natural aging may gradually affect the appearance over time. To preserve the results, it is recommended to avoid intensive dieting and intense exercise that could interfere with the fat grafting process.
Q. Will There Be Noticeable Scars?
A. The procedure is performed with minimal incisions using a cannula, so the resulting scars will be minimal. The marks left are slightly larger than needle punctures but tend to fade over time, becoming less noticeable. However, if scarring remains a concern, laser treatments or other scar management programs can be helpful.
Q. What Precautions Should Be Taken After HERSHE Brazilian Butt Lift Procedure?
A. Prior to the surgery, the clinic will provide you with explanations, consent forms, and pre-surgery instructions. After the surgery, the clinic will provide post-surgery instructions as well as prescribed medication. Key post-surgery instructions include avoiding prolonged sitting or lying down, refraining from intense massages around the buttocks, and taking prescribed medication to reduce swelling and prevent inflammation. Alcohol and smoking should be avoided for one month, as they can negatively affect bleeding, infection, and wound healing. Strenuous exercise and weight loss should be avoided for approximately two months. However, light stretching and walking are encouraged to help reduce swelling and promote circulation.
