Butt Augmentation with Fat Transfer is on the rise in the U.S.

A plastic surgery statistical report, published earlier this year by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, showed that buttock augmentation with fat transfer (a.k.a. Brazilian butt lift) in the U.S. increased 16% from 2012-2013. There were only three other cosmetic surgical procedures with gains in the double-digits. It should be mentioned that buttock augmentation has a long way to go before it ever catches up to the total number of surgeries performed each year for procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift, face lift, rhinoplasty, liposuction, etc. Although the number of butt augmentation surgeries performed yearly are very small in comparison, the findings are important, because it allows plastic surgeons to tailor their procedure offerings to better fit the needs of their patients.

An Increase In Brazilian Butt Lift Surgeries

Joseph T Cruise, MD has also experienced an increase in the number of Brazilian butt lift surgeries performed at his practice in Orange County, CA. over the past year. He believes the attention celebrities like J. Lo, Kim Kardashian and Beyonce have received over their  shapely backsides is a major factor in the demand for butt augmentation. As a result, more and more woman have turned to the Internet and other media outlets in search of information about the available options for enhancing their booty, which has shed more light on butt augmentation with fat transfer. Another contributing factor is the region in which Joseph T Cruise, MD practices. Orange County has incredible year-round weather, miles of beaches, and caters to active, healthy, beauty conscious people. Women in this part of the country continually strive to look their very best and to maintain a youthful appearance.

The Demand For BBL

The demand for Brazilian butt lift surgery in Orange County will likely continue to climb as more and more women become aware of butt augmentation with fat transfer. Until recently butt enhancement was primarily performed by inserting silicone butt implants into the derriere. While this procedure still exists, Joseph T Cruise, MD prefers butt augmentation with fat transfer, because there are fewer risks and complications, a much easier recovery, and no incision. In addition, implants have a tendency to look more dramatic and unnatural than most patients want. Using someone’s own fat and systematically placing it throughout the buttocks creates a more natural result, as well as subsequently improves the overall skin quality and texture, which is something implants cannot do. In Orange County, Brazilian butt lift patients have been thrilled with their results and overall surgical experience.  View before and after pictures here.
