Brazilian butt lift (gluteoplasty) has become a popular surgical procedure which uses fat transfer to create a fuller, more shapely derrière. Excess fat is extracted from other parts of the body through a process similar to liposuction and then transferred to the area that needs augmentation, commonly the higher area of the buttocks to give it a lifted appearance.
