Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift and How Does BBL Edmonton Work?
- 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..
Who is an ideal candidate for a Non-Surgical BBL with Sculptra?
- 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.
What aftercare is required following Sculptra BBL?
- 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.
How do I prepare for my Sculptra BBL treatment?
- 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.
How many Sculptra vials do I need?
- 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.
How is a non-surgical Sculptra BBL different from a surgical BBL?
- Non-surgical Sculptra BBL uses PLLA injections; surgical BBL transfers fat.
- Performed with a cannula under local numbing; surgery requires anesthesia.
- 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.
