Male Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) –
Sculpting the Athletic, Masculine Physique

While Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery is traditionally associated with women, more men are opting for this procedure to achieve a sculpted, athletic appearance. If you’re looking to enhance your glutes and achieve a defined, proportional look—sometimes referred to as the “soccer butt”—you’re in the right place.

Dr. Grandhige is a leading expert in male BBL procedures, with approximately 40% of his BBL patients being men. His experience ensures that each procedure is tailored to masculine aesthetics, helping men achieve natural-looking enhancement while maintaining a strong, defined physique.  It is very important to understand male anatomy to achieve a masculine look, if done by someone who only does women, the risk of feminization is high.

How Does a Male BBL Work?

The male Brazilian Butt Lift is a two-step process:
  1. Liposuction & Fat Harvesting – Unwanted fat is removed from areas resistant to diet and exercise, such as the abdomen, flanks (“love handles”), or lower back. This not only contours these problem areas but also provides the material needed for augmentation.

  2. Fat Transfer & Buttock Sculpting – The purified fat is strategically injected into targeted areas of the glutes and hips to enhance volume, shape, and definition. Unlike the exaggerated curves often associated with female BBLs, the goal for men is typically a firmer, more athletic, and proportionate enhancement.
Customizing Your Results

Each patient has unique goals. Some men desire a fuller, muscular-looking backside, while others may be looking for a subtle enhancement. During your consultation with Dr. Grandhige, your ideal outcome will be discussed in detail, ensuring that the procedure is customized to your vision and body type.

Male BBL vs. Female BBL: Key Differences

A Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a transformative procedure that involves liposuction to remove fat from certain areas of the body, which is then purified and injected into the buttocks for enhanced shape and volume. While the core technique remains the same for both men and women, the approach to a Male BBL is significantly different from a Female BBL due to key anatomical and aesthetic differences.

Are You a Candidate for
a Male Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?

A Male Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) can provide enhanced contours, improved proportions, and a boost in confidence. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, it’s essential to determine if you’re an ideal candidate.

If you meet these criteria, a male BBL could be the perfect way to achieve the sculpted, athletic look you desire. A consultation with a skilled surgeon will help confirm if this procedure aligns with your goals.

Male BBL Preparation: What You Need to Know

Preparing for a Male Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is a crucial step in ensuring the best possible results. Taking the right precautions will help minimize risks, improve recovery, and enhance fat graft survival.

Step 1: Ensure You’re in Good Health
Before undergoing surgery, you should be in overall good health and maintain a stable weight. This ensures that there are no underlying conditions that could put you at unnecessary risk during surgery.
Step 2: Review Your Medications and Supplements
It’s important to inform Dr. Grandhige about all prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, supplements, peptides and vitamins you take. Some medications and supplements can increase swelling or put you at risk for excessive bleeding. Dr. Grandhige will guide you on which ones you may need to stop before surgery.
Step 3: Stop Smoking and Avoid Nicotine Products
Nicotine, found in cigarettes, e-cigarettes, and vapes, reduces blood flow and oxygen levels in the body, which can compromise healing and lower the survival rate of the fat transfer. To optimize your results and minimize complications, you must quit smoking and avoid all nicotine-containing products well in advance of your surgery.

Brazilian Butt Lift vs. Butt Implants:
Which Is Right for You?

If you’re considering enhancing your buttocks, you may be weighing the pros and cons of a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) vs. butt implants. Each procedure offers unique benefits depending on your aesthetic goals, body type, and lifestyle.

Brazilian Butt Lift: A Natural Approach

A BBL enhances your buttocks using fat grafting, which involves harvesting excess fat from areas like your abdomen, flanks, or thighs through liposuction. This purified fat is then injected into the buttocks to enhance volume and shape.
Key Benefits of a BBL:

Butt Implants: Adding Structure and Volume

For those with limited body fat, butt implants can provide significant projection and volume. Silicone implants are surgically placed within the gluteal muscles to enhance size and shape.

Key Benefits of Implants:

Male Brazilian Butt Lift Results

Men seeking butt enhancement often have different goals than women. Whether you want a masculine, athletic look or a more contoured, rounded shape, a BBL can be tailored to your needs.

Masculine Enhancement – Focuses on subtle volume and definition, creating a firmer, lifted appearance without excessive roundness.

Volume Restoration – Ideal for men who have lost fullness due to aging or weight loss, helping restore a youthful, proportionate shape.

Feminization of the Buttocks – For those seeking a rounder, curvier shape, fat can be strategically placed to create a softer, more voluminous contour.

Which Option Is Best for You?

Choosing between a BBL and implants depends on your body type, goals, and preferences. If you prefer a natural feel and dual body sculpting benefits, a BBL is often the best choice. However, if you have limited fat reserves or desire a more structured look, implants may be the better option.

If you’re considering buttock enhancement, consult with an experienced surgeon who can help you achieve your ideal results with precision and artistry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Male Brazilian Butt Lift Results

Recovery from a Male BBL typically takes six weeks. During this period, you’ll need to wear a specialized compression garment to support your newly contoured buttocks and reduce swelling. For optimal healing and results, wearing this garment consistently for at least six weeks is essential.

Does a Male BBL feel natural?

Yes! Since a BBL uses your own natural fat, the results both look and feel authentic. The procedure involves harvesting excess fat through liposuction—usually from areas like the abdomen, waist, or thighs—and strategically injecting it into the buttocks for a sculpted, enhanced shape.

Which areas are typically liposuctioned for a Male BBL?

Liposuction can be performed wherever you have unwanted fat, but the most common areas include:
Other areas can be addressed based on your specific goals and body composition.

How long do the results last?

BBL results are long-lasting because the procedure transfers your own fat cells to a new location where they establish a blood supply. However, about 20-30% of the transferred fat will naturally be reabsorbed within the first few weeks. The remaining fat cells will survive permanently, provided you maintain a stable weight.

Do straight men get BBLs?

Absolutely! BBLs are for everyone. Many men—regardless of their sexual orientation—seek this procedure to enhance their masculine physique, proportions, and confidence. A Male BBL is tailored to create a natural, sculpted look that aligns with male aesthetics.

When can I exercise after a Male BBL?

Expect bruising and swelling for the first few weeks. Most patients can resume light exercise in about 3-4 weeks, with a gradual return to normal workouts over time. Your surgeon will guide you based on your healing progress.

Can I smoke before or after a Male BBL?

No, smoking and nicotine use significantly impact your results. Nicotine restricts blood flow, increasing the risk of fat loss beyond the typical 30%. To optimize your results:

How is a Male BBL different from a Female BBL?

A Male BBL requires a different approach to align with masculine anatomy and aesthetic goals. This includes:

If I’m too thin for a BBL, should I gain weight?

Gaining weight just to qualify for a BBL isn’t recommended. If you gain weight temporarily for the procedure but later lose it, your BBL results will shrink as well. A better approach is to discuss alternative solutions with your surgeon, such as lean-fat grafting techniques or considering other enhancement options.
