What Is a Skinny BBL?
The Skinny BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) is a refined body contouring procedure designed for individuals with a naturally slim or athletic build. Unlike traditional BBLs, which require larger volumes of fat, this technique focuses on strategic fat transfer to create subtle, natural-looking curves—making it ideal for patients with a lower body fat percentage.
Dr. Karl William Schwarz, a board-certified plastic surgeon at Careaga Plastic Surgery, specializes in delivering customized results using advanced techniques that enhance the body’s natural proportions.
A Modern Philosophy: Whole-Body Harmony, Not Just Volume
Moving Beyond the Traditional BBL
The modern Skinny BBL isn’t just about enlarging the buttocks—it’s about creating balance from head to toe. Dr. William takes a 360° approach to body sculpting, addressing the entire lower body, including the hips, waist, thighs, and lower back, to ensure a harmonious, feminine silhouette.

Why the Skinny BBL Is Gaining Popularity
For many patients, especially those who are naturally slim or fitness-focused, traditional BBLs may look unnatural or disproportionate. The Skinny BBL technique corrects this by:
- Filling hip dips for smooth curves
- Enhancing the waist-to-hip ratio
- Creating proportion between the buttocks and legs
This is especially important for patients looking for results that are elegant and tailored—not exaggerated.
Skinny BBL: Step-by-Step Overview
1. Personalized Consultation
Dr. William begins with a comprehensive evaluation to determine your fat distribution, skin quality, and goals.
2. Gentle Liposuction
Fat is harvested from donor areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or inner thighs, using advanced liposuction techniques designed for minimal trauma and high fat survival.
3. Fat Purification
The fat is carefully processed to remove impurities and prepare it for safe, effective reinjection.
4. Strategic Fat Injection
Dr. William precisely injects purified fat into the buttocks, hips, and surrounding areas—sculpting volume where needed to enhance natural contours.

- Enhance feminine shape without overcorrection
- Improve the balance between the lower and upper body
