Brazilian Butt Lift
Newport Beach | Dr. Jed Horowitz

Overview of Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a body contouring procedure that enhances the shape and volume of the buttocks using your body’s own fat. By combining liposuction with fat transfer, this procedure creates a more sculpted silhouette while enhancing natural curves.
At Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach, Dr. Jed Horowitz performs BBL procedures with a focus on safety, proportion, and natural-looking results. The goal is not simply to add volume, but to create a balanced contour that complements the waist, hips, and overall body shape.
Patients from Newport Beach, Orange County, and throughout Southern California — as well as those traveling for specialized care — choose BBL to achieve refined, natural enhancement.
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
A BBL is a procedure that uses fat harvested from other areas of the body to enhance the buttocks.
The procedure includes:
-
Liposuction to remove fat from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, back, or thighs
-
Purification of the harvested fat
-
Precise injection of fat into the buttocks to improve shape and volume
Because it uses your own fat, the results look and feel natural.
Dr. Jed Horowitz focuses on smooth contour transitions and proportional enhancement rather than overcorrection.


What Concerns Does a BBL Address?
A Brazilian Butt Lift can improve:
-
Flat or under-projected buttocks
-
Lack of volume or shape
-
Imbalance between hips and waist
-
Stubborn fat in surrounding areas
-
Overall body contour and proportion
This procedure enhances both the buttocks and the surrounding body areas.

How the Procedure Works
A Brazilian Butt Lift is performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia.
Step 1: Liposuction
Fat is gently removed from donor areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs.
Step 2: Fat processing
The harvested fat is purified to isolate healthy fat cells.
Step 3: Fat transfer
The fat is carefully injected into the buttocks using precise techniques.
Step 4: Sculpting
The surrounding areas are contoured to enhance overall body shape.
