Dr. Tachmes is a South Florida leader in Brazilian Butt Lift procedures. The technique involves liposuction of available fat from the torso and legs to be transfered to the the buttock area to achieve a fuller and rounder buttock region. Simultaneously, the patient obtains an improved contour of the waist, hips and thigh area. Patients usually require about one week of recovery time and will wear a post-operative compression garment for one month. The garment is provided by our office.

Your results will depend directly on the amount of fat available to transfer to the buttock region and the shape and skin type of your buttock. Long term satisfaction with this procedure is excellent.

DR. TACHMES’ PERSONAL APPROACH TO BUTTOCK AUGMENTATION USING FAT TRANSFER

The Brazilian Butt Lift procedure has become one of my most popular surgical procedures that i perform. The technique has evolved through the years as plastic surgeons have become more skilled in this procedure and the technology and equipment more sophisticated. Results vary from patient to patient and are based on the patient’s skin tone and elasticity, buttock shape and amount of fat available for transfer.

Each patient presents with a unique body shape and fatty distribution that requires individualization of the procedure. This is where the “Art of Plastic Surgery” comes into play and patients are wise to search out a very qualified board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience in this surgery. Artistic sensibility and judgement are crucial aspects necessary in order to achieve consistent, aesthetically pleasing results.

How much fat to remove? From what areas of the body should the fat be taken? How deep or superficial should the cannula be inserted into? When is enough suctioning enough? How much and at what level should the fat be injected into the buttocks? Is the surgeon able to effectively sculpt the buttock to produce maximum results? How does a female buttock differ from a male buttock? These questions must be addressed by the surgeon instinctively during each procedure.

I focus on several key aspects of this procedure in order to insure optimum results and patient safety:

• I employ C.R.N.A. and M.D. anesthesiologists to monitor patient vital signs and maintain proper hydration during the procedure.
• I begin with t supine position for the tumescent liposuction portion of the procedure. I then rotate the patient into the complete prone position for additional liposuction and then the fat transfer.
• I am careful to maintain the suction pressure near 18mmHg and never handle the fatty tissue prior to injection.
• Patients wear a body compression garment for at least one month to help with swelling and shaping.
