Benefits of a Brazilian Butt Lift in Santa Monica
Sculpted Form
Your Younique provider has years of experience and can give you the stunning, sculpted figure of your dreams with a Brazilian butt lift in Santa Monica.
Double Up
Are you wanting to remove fat from areas like your stomach, underarms, or thighs? We’ll remove and purify that excess fat and deposit it into your buttocks for a naturally sourced enhancement.
No Implants
Since this treatment contours your buttocks with your own fat, you won’t need even a single implant, reducing the risk of rejection for a more seamless recovery process.
Consultation
If a BBL is something you’re interested in, call us and schedule your consultation. When you meet your provider, you will discuss your medical history, treatment goals, and any other concerns or questions you may have. Through this discussion, we can determine if a Brazilian butt lift is the right treatment for you.
If you choose to go forward with the BBL surgery, our staff will help get you scheduled and provide any pre-surgery details.
Procedure
The procedure starts with your surgeon removing fat from the predetermined areas of your body. Then, your surgeon takes the removed fat and puts it through a purification process. This helps promote the sustainability of the fat.
After that, your surgeon carefully injects the fat into your buttocks. They carefully sculpt and contour the fat in the final step to give you that curved, youthful look.
Recovery
It’s important that you are prepared to lose roughly 40 to 50 percent of the initial size. This loss is anticipated, so your provider will intentionally overfill the area enough to compensate for this.
Typically, a full recovery takes about 6 to 10 weeks. You shouldn’t sit on your new buttocks for 3 to 4 weeks after treatment. We recommend you use a BBL pillow if you need to take a seat. Our staff also advises that you try to sleep on your stomach as much as possible during your recovery.

The path for your Younique journey begins with this first step.
What is the recovery process for a BBL?
The BBL recovery timeline is:
- Return to work: 1-2 weeks after surgery
- Full recovery: 3-4 weeks after surgery
- Return to exercise: Around 8 weeks post-surgery
In the first 4 weeks after your surgery, you will need to wear a compression garment day and night. After this period, you will still need to wear it, but only during the day for another 4 weeks.
Typically, patients recover from BBL surgery in roughly 4 to 6 weeks. Following a BBL, doctors advise patients to refrain from strenuous exercise and weight lifting for 8 weeks. One last important piece of information you should know is to avoid all unnecessary pressure in the treatment area throughout the entire recovery process.
If you have any questions about what you can and cannot physically do, feel free to give us a call! We want to support you in any way we can before, during, and after surgery.
How do I support my Brazilian butt lift results?
At Younique, we want to make sure you’re prepared for your Brazilian butt lift in Santa Monica and know how to support the results. After your consultation, we will give you the information you need for pre- and post-surgery care. We do have some general instructions that are important to know beforehand:
- Avoid sitting on your buttocks and activities that require you to be seated as much as possible—this includes driving.
- Stay hydrated by drinking at least half of your body weight in ounces a day.
- Do not smoke 2 to 4 weeks before and after your surgery, as doing so can affect how your body heals.
- Avoid sleeping on your back if you can. We recommend trying to sleep on your stomach so that the treatment area can heal better.
- Continue maintaining a stable weight with a proper diet.
- Pick back up on your exercise routine around 8 weeks post-surgery.
- Wear your compression garment as instructed.
