Having confidence in the way we look is no easy feat, and it can be disheartening to look at ourselves in the mirror and not feel content with what we see. Although I’m a big advocate of self-love and learning to accept ourselves as we are, it’s understandable that many people will decide to take charge of their destiny and opt for cosmetic intervention to achieve their desired look. I’m all for female empowerment, and sometimes we have to accept that this will have a different meaning to different people.
It should go without saying that all shapes and sizes are equally beautiful, but with the rise in popularity of the ‘hourglass’ figure, there are lots of people who now hold this is a goal for their bodies, and a big trend is theBrazilian Butt Lift (BBL) procedure which can help people to achieve that voluptuous bum look that many people desire.
Before deciding to undergo any body contouring surgery, it is absolutely vital to first understand its ins and outs so that you can feel comfortable in makingan informed decision. So, what is a BBL?
In essence, a Brazilian Butt Lift uses liposuction to remove fat from areas around the body like the hips, abdomen, or lower back, then transfer that fat to your buttocks to give you a bigger, rounder bum and a more contoured look overall.
What Will the Treatment Be Like?
You might be thinking, ‘I've never had surgery like this before, what will it be like?’
Asking questions is a great start and any good provider will encourage this, as they will want you to be absolutely sure about your choice before going ahead! Researching the very best cosmetic surgeons who can help answer your questions, and creating a plan for your surgery will be fundamental in beginning the process of creating a treatment plan. You want to make sure you find a surgeon who understands what is important to you, and will help you achieve that through their skill and expertise. This is one of many situations in life where going for the cheapest option is not likely to be the wisest idea.
Here are a few fundamentals regarding BBL: you should be back to work after around 10 days post-procedure, then getting back to a little light exercise after three weeks. Some downtime like this is inevitable after any surgery, as your incisions are going to be tender, but you should feel comfortable to fully return to your daily routine after six weeks.
A Boost to Your Confidence
After around six months, the full results of your lift should be plain to see and you can then enjoy shopping for your new body shape.
Clothing will take on new life...You may find yourself looking around shops and seeing different outfits in a whole new light!
Deciding to choose body augmentation is a big step and not one to be taken lightly, but if you are making an informed decision then I am all for autonomy and personal choice.
