A Brazilian butt lift is a surgical enhancement of the buttock which utilizes your own fat. Patients who have lost buttock volume or who are born with a flat butt choose a Brazilian Butt Lift because the procedure adds volume without an implant or significant scarring.
Dr. Chernoff performs Butt Augmentation with fat transferred from another part of the body, usually the abdomen, or anywhere the patient would like it removed. Removing fat from one area and injecting it into another area eliminates the need for a buttock implant.
A fat transfer involves removing fat through liposuction and injecting it into the buttocks to enhance and lift the cheeks. Injecting the fat requires skill and precision to achieve a final result that looks natural, with projection in just the right places, and with even looking butt cheeks.
Before Surgery
Prior to any surgery, a complete medical history is taken to evaluate the patient’s general health. Dr. Chernoff will do a thorough examination to determine the most effective surgical approach. He will describe the type of anesthesia to be used, the procedure, what results might realistically be expected, and the possible risks and complications.

After Surgery
Patients will recover from a Brazilian Butt Lift in as little as a few days after their procedure. The exact healing time will depend on the amount of fat removed and injected. Pain associated with the procedure is mild to moderate but is controlled with oral medication. Daily showers and antibiotics will be continued to prevent infection. Instructions for the day of surgery include rest and limited activities. Dr. Chernoff will determine when normal activities can be resumed. Swelling, bruising, numbness and over sensitivity around the surgical area may occur, but these conditions are usually temporary. Consistently rated #1 plastic surgery center by our patients.
