Achieve natural-looking, long-lasting results without the need for surgery.
Why Choose a Non-Surgical BBL?
A non-surgical BBL is an excellent alternative for those who desire a fuller, more contoured buttocks but want to avoid the complexities and downtime associated with surgical procedures.
Our treatments using Sculptra and Hyper Diluted Radiesse are:
- Minimally Invasive: No incisions or general anesthesia required.
- Minimal Downtime: Resume daily activities more quickly than with surgical alternatives.
- Natural-Looking Results: Enhances your body’s natural contours without looking overdone.
- Safe and Effective: FDA-approved materials that are safely absorbed by the body over time.
Benefits of Non-Surgical BBL Over Surgical Options
When considering buttock augmentation, many potential clients weigh the options between traditional surgical Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBL) and non-surgical alternatives.
At Aiken Medical Aesthetics, we offer advanced non-surgical BBL treatments using Sculptra and Hyper Diluted Radiesse, which present numerous advantages over surgery. Here are the key benefits:
Reduced Risk of Complications
Surgical BBL procedures, which typically involve liposuction to transfer fat from other areas of the body to the buttocks, come with inherent risks such as infections, anesthesia complications, and blood clots.
Non-surgical BBL treatments using injectables significantly lower these risks as they are minimally invasive, involve no general anesthesia, and do not require incisions.
No Scarring
One of the most significant advantages of opting for a non-surgical BBL is the absence of scars.
Since the procedure uses injections rather than surgical incisions, clients do not have to worry about the long-term cosmetic and physical issues associated with scars.
Quicker Recovery Times
The recovery period for a surgical BBL can be extensive—often requiring weeks of downtime during which patients must follow strict guidelines, including limited sitting.
Non-surgical BBL treatments typically allow patients to return to their daily routines much more quickly, often within the same day or a few days, with much fewer post-treatment limitations.
Natural-Looking Results
Non-surgical BBLs provide a gradual increase in buttock volume, promoting a natural lift and contour by stimulating the body’s collagen production.
This means the results develop naturally over time, helping to avoid the sudden changes that can sometimes occur with surgical alternatives.
Long-Lasting Effects
While not permanent, the effects of non-surgical BBLs using Sculptra and Hyper Diluted Radiesse can last for up to two years.
This longevity comes without the need for major surgery and the associated long-term commitments and potential for revision surgeries.
Less Pain and Discomfort
Compared to the surgical BBL, non-surgical methods involve less pain and discomfort during and after the procedure.
This makes it an ideal choice for clients who have lower pain thresholds or who wish to avoid the intense post-operative pain often associated with surgical enhancements.
Cost-Effectiveness
Although the cost can vary, non-surgical BBLs are generally less expensive than surgical alternatives when considering the total cost including surgery, anesthesia, and the potential for longer-term medical care due to complications or revisions.
By choosing non-surgical BBL treatments at Aiken Medical Aesthetics, clients can achieve their aesthetic goals with minimal risk and downtime, enjoying a safer and more comfortable treatment experience.
How It Works
- Sculptra BBL: Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid-based filler that stimulates your body’s own collagen production.
When used in a BBL, Sculptra helps increase volume and improve skin texture, resulting in a more youthful and uplifted appearance.
It gradually enhances the buttocks, with results lasting up to two years.
- Hyper Diluted Radiesse BBL: Radiesse is a calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) filler known for its collagen-stimulating properties.
When diluted and used for a BBL, it promotes significant tissue regeneration, leading to increased volume and firmer skin.This method provides a subtle lift and can be customized to suit your specific body contouring needs.
What to Expect During Your Non-Surgical BBL Treatment at Aiken Medical Aesthetics
Choosing a non-surgical Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) using Sculptra or Hyper Diluted Radiesse is an exciting step towards enhancing your silhouette with minimal downtime.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to what you can expect during your treatment process, from initial preparation to post-treatment care.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a personalized consultation at Aiken Medical Aesthetics. During this session, one of our experienced aesthetic practitioners will discuss your aesthetic goals, assess your current buttock shape, and determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.
This is the perfect time to ask any questions you may have about the treatment.
Step 2: Pre-Treatment Preparation
Once you decide to proceed, we’ll provide detailed instructions on how to prepare for your appointment. This may include:
- Avoiding certain medications and supplements that can increase bleeding, such as aspirin and fish oil.
- Ensuring you are well-hydrated and have eaten a light meal before your session to maintain comfort and stable blood sugar levels.
Step 3: Treatment Session
On the day of your treatment, here’s what to expect:
- Cleanse the Area: The target area will be thoroughly cleansed and disinfected to prevent infection.
- Application of Numbing Cream: A topical anesthetic will be applied to minimize discomfort during the injections.
- Injection Process: Using a fine needle, the chosen filler (Sculptra or Hyper Diluted Radiesse) will be strategically injected into specific areas of the buttocks to create volume and enhance shape. The procedure typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes.
Step 4: Immediate Post-Treatment Care
Immediately following the injections, you might experience mild swelling or bruising. Here are a few tips for immediate post-treatment care:
- Cold Compresses: Applying ice packs can help reduce swelling.
- Avoid Strenuous Activities: It’s recommended to avoid heavy exercise and prolonged sitting for the first few days after the treatment.
Step 5: Follow-Up and Maintenance
- Follow-Up Visits: You will have a follow-up appointment to monitor your progress and ensure optimal results. This is also when any touch-ups can be administered if necessary.
- Long-Term Care: Results typically develop over several weeks as the fillers stimulate your body’s collagen production. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following any specific care instructions will help enhance and prolong the results.
Post-Procedure Care for Sculptra BBL: Why Massage is Essential
One of the most important steps in the follow-up process is massage, which helps evenly distribute the product and optimize collagen production for a fuller, sculpted look.
Massage Guidelines for Sculptra BBL 💆♀️🍑
✔ Frequency: Massage the treated area 5 times a day
✔ Duration: Each session should last 5 minutes
✔ Total Duration: Continue this routine for at least 5 days post-procedure
This 5-5-5 rule (5 minutes, 5 times a day, for 5 days) ensures that the Sculptra product integrates smoothly into the tissue, reducing the risk of unevenness or small lumps while encouraging optimal collagen stimulation.
Why is Massage So Important?
Sculptra BBL enhances volume gradually by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, rather than providing instant volume like traditional fillers or implants.
Massaging the area helps:
- Distribute the product evenly for a smoother, natural-looking shape
- Minimize the risk of nodules or uneven texture
- Support collagen production for long-lasting volume enhancement
Pro Tips for Post-Sculptra BBL Massage
💡 Use a gentle circular motion while applying light pressure.
💡 Consider using a hydrating lotion or oil to reduce friction and make massaging easier.
💡 If you experience discomfort, massage with a soft cloth or compression garment to ease sensitivity.
Step 6: Additional Sessions
Depending on the desired outcome and the type of filler used, additional sessions may be required to achieve optimal volume and lift.
This will be discussed during your consultation and follow-up appointments.
By understanding what to expect during each phase of your non-surgical BBL treatment, you can feel more comfortable and prepared for the process.
At Aiken Medical Aesthetics, we are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and satisfying experience as you work towards achieving your aesthetic goals.

Sculptra and Hyper Diluted Radiesse are both FDA-approved for use in aesthetic treatments and have been widely used for years.
