Buttock Augmentation with Lipofilling in Barcelona

What is buttock augmentation with lipofilling?

Buttock augmentation with lipofilling involves harvesting fat from donor areas (waist, abdomen, flanks, back) by liposuction, processing it and re-injecting it into the buttocks to increase volume and improve projection. It is a technique that delivers a double benefit: redefining the waist/hip silhouette and augmenting the buttocks.

At CLA Surgery we follow international safety recommendations: strictly subcutaneous injection, avoiding the muscle, with dedicated cannulas and a technique that minimises the risk of fat embolism.

Safety first

No deep BBL. Subcutaneous only.

The so-called "BBL" (Brazilian Butt Lift) has historically had serious complications when fat is injected intramuscularly. Today's safe practice, recommended by international societies, is strictly subcutaneous injection with dedicated cannulas and ultrasound guidance when applicable. That is what we do at CLA Surgery.

Frequently asked questions

What percentage of the fat "stays"?

Usually between 60% and 70% of the grafted fat integrates permanently. That is why we plan volumes with a margin and, if necessary, a second session at 6–12 months.

Is a second session necessary?

Not always. It depends on the available donor fat, the desired volume and the integration rate. It is assessed at 6 months.

How long can't I sit down?

For the first 2 weeks we avoid putting pressure on the buttocks when sitting. From week 3 a special cushion is introduced that offloads the area for several more weeks.

Is it safe?

Yes, when performed with a strictly subcutaneous technique and appropriate cannulas, as we do at CLA Surgery. Intramuscular injection is avoided entirely.

How much does buttock augmentation cost in Barcelona?

You receive a quote after the free consultation and it depends on the donor areas treated and the volume. We work with Pepper financing.
