BBL — buttock augmentation with own fat
Buttock shaping with your own fat. Practice focus — with an explicit safety concept.
Is this treatment right for me?
Summary
Fat is harvested by liposuction (usually abdomen and flanks), prepared and injected into the buttock region.
Who is it for
Sufficient own fat, good health, stable weight. Smoking is an exclusion criterion.
How the treatment works
Method, technique and safety concept
Injection strictly above the muscle fascia, never into the muscle. Intramuscular injection is the main cause of the known rare but severe complication (fat embolism) and is not practised here.
Duration approx. 2–4 hours [to follow].
Procedure
- Consultation
Analysis, safety concept, risks, recovery, reflection period.
- Surgery
Partner clinic in Cologne, general anaesthesia, usually 1 night inpatient.
- Aftercare
No sitting/lying on the buttocks for 2–3 weeks (special cushion), compression at harvest zones, follow-ups.
What to expect afterwards
Risks & complications
The BBL is a serious procedure. Risks stated in full:
- Fat embolism — rare but potentially life-threatening; avoided by injecting only above the fascia [to follow]
- Partial fat loss, asymmetry
- Bleeding, infection, seroma, wound-healing problems
- Liposuction risks: contour irregularities, dents, sensation changes
- Thrombosis/embolism risk (prophylaxis is standard)
Risks and complications are stated in full — they are part of every honest consultation.
Recovery
- No direct sitting/lying on the buttocks for 2–3 weeks
- Compression wear 4–6 weeks
- Sports after 6–8 weeks
- Final volume visible after 3–6 months
