Is BBL Surgery a Good Choice?
The decision to undergo a Brazilian Buttocks Lift in Turkey is personal as long as patients meet the required medical criteria. The best candidates for buttocks lipofilling are at a stable weight and seek to improve symmetry and body proportions.
It is important to note that a BBL is not a weight loss procedure. It is an aesthetic surgery, but it can’t address cellulite or stretch marks. The greatest benefits are usually experienced after pregnancy or weight loss. If that’s your case, BBL surgery in Turkey can be truly transformative.

Consider the Risks of the Procedure
All surgeries involve a certain degree of risk, and a BBL in Turkey is no exception. Medical ethics require informing patients about all aspects of surgery, including unpleasant facts.
As much as complication rates are practically non-existent when surgery is performed by an experienced team in a suitable facility, operations can go in unexpected ways.
It is always up to patients to decide whether such risks are acceptable or not. Some risks of BBL surgery include:
Infection
Blood clots
Fat embolism
Skin necrosis
Scarring
Anaesthesia risks
Dissatisfaction with results
Risks and all other matters will be fully discussed before your consent is taken. All precautionary measures will be taken to ensure your maximum well-being. We suggest conducting a thorough research before making a calm decision.
Don’t hesitate to discuss all questions directly with your plastic surgeon. It is important to carefully follow all pre-operative and post-operative instructions.
What is the Cost of BBL in Turkey?
It is not possible to determine the price of BBL in Turkey without a prior medical consultation. Operational costs have a considerable degree of variation depending on the patient’s medical conditions, the chosen treatment areas, the surgeon & hospital of your choice.
On average, BBL in Turkey costs 50-70% less than in the UK, this is the all-inclusive standard price, approximately £3500 with all of the following:
Hotel accommodation
Inner-city transport
Surgery by an outstanding surgeon
All hospital fees
Aftercare
12-month follow-up
Free medical insurance
This may seem cheap from an international point of view, but it isn’t for locals. Only the very wealthy are able to access the quality of treatment and surgeons offered to foreign patients, which benefit from the highest standards of the country. Considering cosmetic surgery is private and not covered by insurance, this is unavoidable.
Why is the Price of BBL in Turkey Less Expensive?
There are several major factors behind the relatively lower price of BBL surgery in Turkey. Here are 3 major reasons:
Government subsidies to the medical sector: Medicine is extremely important in all countries. In Turkey, it is even more so. Medical tourism is a sector with great success, providing a steady inflow of patients. For this reason, big tax exemptions apply.
Currency exchange: This is pure math and economics. Lower currency value (Turkish liras) lead to advantageous prices for GBP, euros, dollars.
Lower operational costs: As a result of the prior two and strong competition within the sector, the operational cost of BBL in Turkey is reduced to a minimum.
Types of BBL Surgery in Turkey
In 2019, a total of 479,451 BBL surgeries were conducted in the world, an whooping +116% increase compared to 2013, according to the International Society of Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery.
To achieve the best results, it is crucial to conduct careful pre-operative planning and post- operative aftercare. Your surgeon will work with you to create a customized treatment plan and achieve your desired results.
Here are the main 5 techniques of Brazilian Butt Lift surgery in Turkey:
Bubble Butt BBL (AKA Round Butt BBL)
A “bubble butt” Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) aims to create a more pronounced, rounder, and lifted buttocks. Your plastic surgeon will carefully sculpt the new buttocks shape depending on your individual goals and anatomy.
Heart Shaped Butt BBL (AKA Pear Shaped Butt BBL)
A heart-shaped butt Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) aims to create buttocks with a more feminine and curvy appearance. Your surgeon will sculpt a fuller, more rounded shape widening from up-to-down. This procedure requires a particularly skilled and experienced surgeon.
Sculptra Brazilian Butt Lift
This is a non-surgical variation with limited results. Sculptra is a filler poly-L-lactic acid, which is injected into the buttocks to add volume and improve the shape. The advantage of course is there is no need for anaesthesia and invasive surgery.
Ultrasound Non-surgical Butt Lift
This variation is another non-invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency technology to stimulate collagen production in the buttocks, resulting in a firmer and more lifted appearance. Results are much more limited.
Hybrid Butt Lift
This last variation combines traditional liposuction and fat transfer with Sculptra or other fillers to achieve a more dramatic and long-lasting result than non-surgical butt lifts.
