The South Beach Butt Lift (SoBeBL) at PURE Plastic Surgery can make this a reality. Many struggle with stubborn fat deposits, sagging skin or a flat backside despite their best efforts at diet and exercise. This groundbreaking procedure is designed to enhance your natural curves with minimal scarring so you can flaunt your new shape without worry.
Let's explore how the SoBeBL can help you achieve the look you’ve always desired.
What is a South Beach Butt Lift (SoBeBL)?
The South Beach Butt Lift (SoBeBL) is a procedure that involves liposuction with fat transfer to the buttocks and hips. It has been designed to reveal almost no scarring, allowing patients to wear revealing clothing without fear of people seeing surgery scars. With a SoBeBL, it may not appear that the patient had surgery at all due to the hidden incisions and natural enhancement made according to the unique and specific patient foundation.
The procedure is performed through minimal tiny incisions instead of the multiple incisions used in a standard Brazilian butt lift (BBL). The incisions are few and hidden, and this version of the procedure leaves almost no trace. Also, the result is an enhanced natural result where the new shape is created according to the patient’s unique foundation with smooth curves and seamless transitions.
SoBeBL Benefits
The South Beach Butt Lift (SoBeBL) offers numerous benefits that make it a great option for those wanting to enhance their curves and achieve a more contoured figure. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Minimal scarring: Utilizes tiny incisions, resulting in less visible scarring
- Improved confidence: Enhances your natural curves, potentially boosting self-esteem and body image
- Long-lasting results: The transferred fat cells that survive will remain permanently, providing lasting enhancement

What to expect from a South Beach Butt Lift
On the day of your surgery, your butt augmentation procedure will take place in an outpatient surgery center. You’ll first meet with your anesthesia team to discuss the right methods for your pain management. You will be given general anesthesia to avoid any pain during surgery.
Your surgeon will begin with liposuction on the areas of your body where excess fat can be collected. Then, your fat will be put in a special cannula to be added to the buttocks. Your plastic surgeon will use this cannula to strategically inject the purified fat and create your desired butt and hip shape. At the end of the surgery, sutures or dissolvable stitches will be placed.
South Beach Butt Lift recovery
After your surgery, you’ll be rolled to a recovery area and monitored as your anesthesia wears off. Your nurse will give you special instructions for your care and recovery after the surgery that include staying off your butt for at least six weeks to allow for optimal fat survival and results. While at home, you’ll have a special pillow to sit on that will help you heal and keep your new fat intact. You’ll have bruising, pain and swelling after surgery, which will take a few weeks to go down.
After your surgery, you’ll want to monitor for various side effects that can occur after a procedure such as the SoBeBL, including:
- Nausea and vomiting
- The signs of Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
- The signs of pulmonary embolism, which include pain in the chest and trouble breathing
- Bleeding or infection at the incision site
- Fever
- Unusual drainage from any incision sites
- A feeling that something isn’t right
- Excessive pain, redness or swelling
- Pain in other parts of the body
- Incisions that don’t heal completely
South Beach Butt Lift Results
You will love the results of a SoBeBL, where you’ll find your backside more toned, shaped and full of volume. You will have a follow-up with your plastic surgeon during your first week after surgery.
Since your body will naturally absorb some of the added fat within the first few months, you may see a decrease in volume during this time. The fat cells that remain after this period are usually permanent, but a follow-up procedure might be necessary to achieve or maintain your desired results over the years.
