Thinking about a BBL but worried about the risks? Here’s how surgeons like Dr Omar Tillo at CREO Clinic are changing the game with a safer, smarter approach.
It’s no secret that Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs) have been one of the most talked-about treatments over the last few years; for both good and not-so-good reasons. While the idea of sculpting your body using your own fat sounds ideal, early versions of the BBL raised a lot of safety concerns. Fast forward to now, and the landscape is changing for the better, with surgeons likeDr Omar Tillo at CREO Clinic leading the way. Rather than the old-school approach of injecting fat deep into the muscles (which carried serious risks), there’s now a safer, smarter way to achieve those sculpted curves. Dr Tillo’s technique, called BEST-F (Buttock Enhancement and Superficial Transfer of Fat), uses real-time ultrasound to guide exactly where the fat is placed – only in the safe, superficial layers, not near any dangerous structures.
“Patients deserve to feel confident not just in their results, but in the whole process,” says Dr Tillo. “Using ultrasound means we know exactly where we’re placing the fa- it’s a game changer for safety and outcomes.
“More and more people are now asking the right questions when it comes to aesthetictreatments: How safe is it? Who’s actually performing the procedure? What technology is being used? At CREO Clinic, every step of the BBL journey is carefully managed by Dr Tillo himself, from liposuction to fat transfer, giving patients that extra reassurance.
If you’ve been thinking about a BBL but feeling unsure because of the scary stories you’ve heard, know that things are different now, especially if you’re in the right hands. Safer techniques, better technology, and surgeons who put patient safety first are shaping the future of body contouring. And with experts like Dr Omar Tillo leading the way, the modern BBL looks brighter than ever.
