What a Brazilian Butt Lift Treats
Volume Moved, Not Added
A Brazilian butt lift in South Jordan from Avant Plastics removes fat through liposuction, then transfers a portion of it to the buttocks to build volume and shape. Dr. Howland and Dr. Maglić plan both parts of the procedure together, since the contour in the donor area matters as much as the volume created in the buttocks.
What It Treats:
-
Buttocks that lack volume or projection
-
A flat or square buttock shape
-
Limited definition between the waist and hips
-
Asymmetry in buttock shape
-
Excess fat at the waist, flanks, or back
-
Proportions that clothing never quite flatters

Why Choose
Avant Plastics
A procedure where technique decides everything.
A Brazilian butt lift combines liposuction and fat transfer. Your surgeon designs the harvest and the placement as a single result rather than treating one as an afterthought.
Your result depends on how much usable fat your body can safely provide. Our surgeons tell you what your anatomy will support before you schedule, not after.
The Process
Planned. Performed. Perfected.
Prepare With Confidence
Every Avant Plastics patient receives a pre-surgical checklist covering medication, nutrition, transportation, and recovery planning, so surgery day arrives without guesswork.

Complementary Procedures
Frequently Asked Questions
The procedure has 2 parts. Your surgeon performs liposuction on donor areas, such as the abdomen, flanks, or back, then purifies that fat and transfers it into the buttocks to build volume and shape. Both halves contribute to the final result.
Getting a Brazilian butt lift in South Jordan is safe because the American Board of Plastic Surgery certifies our surgeons. Board certification and an accredited surgical facility matter more than almost anywhere else in plastic surgery.
You may be a good candidate if you are in good general health, do not smoke, maintain a stable weight, and carry enough fat in donor areas to harvest. Very lean patients sometimes lack sufficient donor volume, and your surgeon will tell you that honestly.
Keep all pressure off the fat transfer sites for at least 2 weeks. Transferred fat needs an established blood supply to survive, and sustained pressure compromises that supply. Your surgeon explains how to sit, sleep, and move during those first weeks before you go home.
