What is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?
A Brazilian Butt Lift is a surgical procedure that uses your own fat to enhance the shape, size, and projection of your buttocks. Fat is removed from areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs through liposuction, purified, and then strategically injected to create a fuller, rounder, and more lifted appearance — with completely natural-looking results.
Unlike implants, a BBL uses your own body fat, which means the results feel natural, the recovery is smoother, and there is no risk of rejection. This is why the BBL has become one of the most requested body contouring procedures among international patients traveling to the Dominican Republic.

What is a “Dominican BBL”?
“Dominican BBL” is how many patients describe a Brazilian butt lift performed in the Dominican Republic, known for a curvy but natural shape created with liposuction of the waist and back plus fat transfer to the buttocks and hips. With Dr. Giudicelli, the amount of fat transferred is limited to what is safe for your anatomy, and the fat is injected only above the muscle, following ASPS safety guidelines.
Can I combine a BBL with other procedures?
Yes. Many patients combine a BBL with liposuction or a tummy tuck in a single surgery, reducing overall recovery time and cost. Dr. Giudicelli will advise you on the safest combination based on your goals and anatomy.
How much does a BBL cost in the Dominican Republic?
The cost of a BBL depends on your surgical plan, including the amount of fat transferred and whether you combine it with other procedures. Dr. Giudicelli provides a personalized, all-inclusive quote with no hidden fees during your free virtual consultation.
How long do I need to stay in the Dominican Republic after a BBL?
Plan to arrive in Santo Domingo 2–3 days before surgery and stay at least 13 days afterward for follow-up care. Full recovery takes 6 to 8 weeks, and you must avoid sitting directly on your buttocks during that time.
