What To Expect

After mapping and cleaning with alcohol, we numb the area.

A blunt cannula places layered Sculptra micro-aliquots, molding, and symmetry checks.

Expect pressure, 45–90 minutes, aftercare provided.

Mechanism of Action

Poly-L-lactic acid microspheres are biostimulatory

Creating a temporary scaffold that activates fibroblasts to produce type-I collagen

Restoring volume gradually as particles are hydrolyzed and metabolized.

Benefits & Results

Subtle lift and contour with collagen-driven volume.

Enhances projection and hip dips, improves symmetry and texture.

Results develop over 3–6 months and last 2 years.

Post-Treatment Care

Typically mild to moderate pressure and soreness during cannula passes; lidocaine helps.

Expect tenderness, tightness, and bruising peaking at 48 hours.

Relieved by ice and acetaminophen.

Side Effects & Downtime

Expect transient swelling, tenderness, bruising, warmth, or firmness

Rare risks: infection or granulomas; occasional nodules.

Resume in 24–48 hours; avoid pressure, heat, and strenuous exercise initially.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • A Brazilian Butt Lift enhances natural buttock shape and projection without surgery.
  • Our non-surgical BBL uses Sculptra (PLLA) instead of fat transfer or implants.
  • After mapping and numbing, a blunt cannula places micro-aliquots in targeted planes.
  • PLLA particles trigger collagen formation, building soft, gradual volume and smoother contours.
  • Sessions are typically two, spaced four to twelve weeks apart.
  • Expect pressure, swelling, bruising; activities resume within 24–48 hours.
  • Improvements appear in 3–6 months and may last two or more years.
  • Best for subtle projection, hip dip filling, and contour refinement; not a weight-loss solution..
  • An ideal candidate seeks subtle, natural buttock enhancement without surgery, and accepts gradual collagen building.
  • Candidates have stable weight, adequate tissue coverage, and reasonable expectations; they want gentle projection, hip-dip filling, or contour refinement rather than dramatic size change.
  • They are healthy, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and have no active infections, uncontrolled autoimmune diseases, or severe allergies to any components.
  • I would like to discuss anticoagulants, isotretinoin, or recent dental work in advance. Non-smokers—or those willing to reduce smoking—heal more predictably. Skin quality is good enough to support safe cannula placement.
  • They understand that body use is off-label, and rare risks include nodules. They select experienced injectors who use Health Canada–approved products following a personalized assessment, photography, and documented consent.
  • Apply cool compresses intermittently on day one to limit swelling.
  • Sleep on your stomach or side; minimize sitting and pressure for 72 hours.
  • Walk gently; avoid strenuous exercise, saunas, hot tubs, and heat for 48–72 hours.
  • Wear loose clothing; avoid tight waistbands and shaping garments.
  • Keep entry points clean; avoid makeup until tomorrow; use a bland moisturizer.
  • Hydrate well, limit salt, and prioritize protein to support collagen.
  • Massage: follow the 5-5-5 rule—5 minutes, 5 times daily, for 5 days. Use gentle circular strokes.
  • Prefer acetaminophen; avoid NSAIDs unless your prescriber recommends otherwise.
  • Expect bruising, tenderness, warmth, or firmness; small nodules may soften.
  • Seek urgent care for escalating pain, blanching, coolness, dusky color, fever, or breath changes.
  • Disclose medical conditions, allergies, prior fillers, surgeries, and keloid history.
  • List medications and supplements; discuss anticoagulants, isotretinoin, and recent dental work.
  • Skip alcohol 24–48 hours; avoid NSAIDs and herbals for three to seven days if approved.
  • Consider antiviral prophylaxis if prone to cold sores; reschedule active outbreaks.
  • Stop retinoids and acids on treatment areas 48–72 hours before.
  • Hydrate well, eat a light meal; arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.
  • Wear loose clothing; bring compression shorts only if recommended.
  • Plan 45–90 minutes including consent, photos, numbing, and post-care review.
  • Pause tanning, sunburn risk, and intense outdoor heat exposure for one full week.
  • Hip-dip smoothing only: 2–3 vials total per session; 1–2 sessions.
  • Subtle projection/rounding: 6 vials first session; 6–12 total over 1–2 sessions.
  • Noticeable lift and curve: 8–12 vials per session; usually 2 sessions (16–24 total).
  • Pronounced change or wider frames: 12 vials per session; 2–3 sessions (24–36 total).
  • Maintenance: 2–4 vials at 12–18 months.
  • It depends on: height/hip width, tissue thickness, skin laxity, asymmetry, and aesthetic goals.
  • Approach: staged dosing for safety and proportion; collagen builds gradually.
  • Packages: Bronze 2 vials, Silver 3, plus 6- and 12-vial options—final plan set after in-person assessment and photos.
  • Non-surgical Sculptra BBL uses PLLA injections; surgical BBL transfers fat.

  • Gradual collagen-based volume over months; surgery delivers immediate fat volume.
  • Minimal downtime 24–48 hours; surgical recovery 2–6 weeks, limited sitting.
  • Smaller, subtle augmentation; surgery achieves larger, dramatic projection in one session.
  • Risks: bruising, nodules, rare granulomas; surgery risks include fat embolism.
  • No incisions or scars; surgery involves liposuction sites and scars.
  • Usually 2–3 sessions; surgery is typically a single procedure with variable “take.”
  • Results ~2+ years; surgical results may fluctuate with weight changes.
  • Off-label for body; surgery is on-label but higher risk profile.
  • Suitable for lean patients lacking harvestable fat; surgery requires donor fat.
