Perhaps the most striking difference between the Sculptra butt lift and the Brazilian butt lift is that Sculptra is a non-surgical procedure and there is no downtime involved. The Sculptra butt lift requires only simple and painless injections under the skin during a quick 30-minute treatment. It is a great alternative to the Brazilian butt lift procedure for leaner patients who don't have quite enough extra fat to transfer. Sculptra works over time, gradually thickening the skin up to four times, thereby adding a visible volume-increasing effect to the buttocks area.nnSince the early 2010s, there has perhaps been no procedure that has grown at the phenomenal rate of the Brazilian butt lift, largely due to Kim Kardashian, Beyoncu00e9, and JLo. The fact that the Sculptra butt lift emulates the Brazilian butt lift for leaner patients should, perhaps, not be surprising.nnAt their core, the Brazilian butt lift and Sculptra butt lift are designed to do two different things. A Brazilian butt lift can generate enhanced effects, whereas a Sculptra butt lift can create a subtle but important impact. As such, the two procedures use different approaches, and Sculptra is used if someone has inadequate fat to transfer yet wants to add volume to the butt area.nnDuring a Brazilian butt lift, the first step is liposuction. Fat is removed from a target area with excess fat. The removed fat is then injected into the buttocks. The results are long-lasting and, often, quite bold.nnA Sculptra butt lift does not require liposuction, because the injected material is the dermal collagen stimulator rather than a fat graft. The advantage here is that there is no need for even minimally invasive surgery, and therefore no anesthetic is required. (Patients are sometimes given a topical numbing agent to combat any discomfort.)nnThe results tend to be gradual and subtle, with no recovery needed. Sculptra requires several treatments, generally one month apart, and results improve over time. The results will generally last two to three years. This makes the Sculptra butt lift ideal for patients who want natural results, don't have time for recovery, or don't have areas of fat large enough to perform liposuction.nnIf you want to receive some of the best results a Sculptra butt lift in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills has to offer, contact Rejuvalife Vitality Institute at 310-695-1051 to schedule a confidential consultation.
