How does a Sculptra butt lift differ from a surgical Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

< 1 min read

Sculptra butt lifts and Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs) are two very different approaches to achieving a fuller, shapelier backside. Here’s a comparison:

Feature Sculptra Butt Lift Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
Procedure Gradual volume increase through collagen stimulation Surgical fat transfer for immediate and potentially more dramatic results
Results Subtle to moderate enhancement, natural-looking Possibility of greater projection and customization
Recovery Minimal downtime, “5-5-5” massage protocol Significant downtime, may require weeks of recovery
Longevity Results can last up to 2 years or more Results are long-lasting, but some fat absorption is expected
Ideal Candidate Desires gradual results, nonsurgical option, limited body fat Wants dramatic contouring, has sufficient donor fat

Choosing the right option depends on your goals and expectations:

  • Sculptra Butt Lift: Consider this if you want a subtle enhancement, a non-surgical approach, and have realistic expectations.
  • BBL: This may be better for those desiring significant transformation, immediate results, and have enough donor fat for the procedure.

At Kora Aesthetics in Scottsdale, we offer personalized consultations to discuss your goals and help you determine the most suitable butt enhancement option.
