Too lean for a traditional BBL or not willing to undergo surgery? A traditional Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) uses liposuction to remove your own fat and transfer it to the buttocks to add volume and improve shape. For patients who do not have enough donor fat or prefer to avoid liposuction and surgical recovery, alloClae in Seattle offers a non-surgical alternative. Made from processed donated adipose tissue, alloClae is placed beneath the skin to provide volume and enhance buttock contour. This treatment is performed in a single visit and requires less downtime than a surgical fat transfer.
An alloClae BBL is a non-surgical buttock enhancement procedure that uses processed donated adipose tissue to add localized volume and improve the shape and contour of the buttocks. Unlike a traditional BBL, which requires liposuction to harvest your own fat, an alloClae® BBL does not require fat removal or surgical incisions. Instead, the processed tissue is placed beneath the skin in targeted areas of the buttocks to create subtle, natural-looking volume and enhance overall contour.
alloClae® can add volume to selected areas for subtle fullness and improved proportions without harvesting your own fat.
alloClae® can enhance buttock shape, improve proportions, and create smoother transitions between the waist, hips, and buttocks.
alloClae® can soften hip dips, fill localized depressions, and smooth certain contour irregularities based on your anatomy.
Localized alloClae® placement can help improve visible differences between the left and right buttock for a more balanced appearance.
A consultation may be a good next step if you:
Candidacy depends on your anatomy, skin and tissue quality, the amount of volume you want, your medical history, and your goals. Patients seeking a large-volume transformation, and those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing significant medical conditions, may not be eligible to get an alloClae for a Brazilian butt lift. It is better to get a consultation with your doctor before making any decision.
A consultation may be a good next step if you:
Assessment: Your doctor will evaluate the shape, size, and symmetry of your buttocks, along with the surrounding hip and waist contour, to identify where added volume will help.
Treatment planning: The amount of product and the placement points are mapped to your anatomy. The procedure takes approximately 1 hour.
Placement: The tissue is placed beneath the skin in the planned areas, with topical or local numbing for comfort. No general anesthesia is required.
Final review: Shape, projection, and symmetry are checked before you leave.
Photos show what descriptions cannot. When reviewing alloClae BBL before and after images, look at the roundness and projection added, the balance between both sides, how well hip dips were softened, and how naturally the new shape fits the rest of the figure. Judge results photographed after swelling has settled rather than in the first days after treatment, and keep in mind that individual results vary.
| Volume | Cost at Allure Esthetic |

| 100 cc | $10,000 |
| 150 cc | $15,000 |

The amount needed for buttock enhancement depends on the areas being treated and the degree of correction a patient is looking for, so the consultation is what determines the actual treatment volume and final alloClae price rather than a number set in advance.

alloClae® is not positioned as a stand-in for every surgical BBL. A patient who wants substantial fat removed from the abdomen, waist, back, or thighs and transferred into the buttocks is asking for something structurally different from what an injectable can provide, and that patient is generally better served by discussing traditional fat transfer during consultation.
Treatment is not recommended for patients with an active infection in the treatment area, severe allergen sensitivities relevant to the product, or a history of anaphylaxis. A full medical history review before treatment is what determines eligibility.
For patients drawn to a fuller shape but hesitant about surgery, an alloClae® BBL offers a distinct set of advantages.
The biggest limitation of a surgical BBL is that you need enough of your own fat to harvest, and many of the people who most want the procedure are too lean to qualify. Because alloClae® uses donated tissue, that barrier disappears.
A surgical BBL means liposuction incisions, anesthesia, and a separate area of your body that has to heal alongside your buttocks. alloClae® skips harvesting completely, so there is only one treatment area and no donor-site recovery.
The recovery from a surgical BBL is well known for its weeks of limited sitting to protect the transferred fat. alloClae® is placed in the office with local numbing, and most patients return to daily activity within 24 to 48 hours.
Because the tissue is placed by hand in measured amounts, Dr. Sajan can build volume exactly where it improves your shape, whether that means correcting asymmetry, softening hip dips, or smoothing a flat area.
Since alloClae® is real adipose tissue, it integrates into the soft-tissue layers of the buttocks and feels soft and natural, without the firmness or defined edges of an implant.
The product itself is marketed as an HCT/P (Human Cell and Tissue Product) that meets the FDA's HCT/P regulations. Donor tissue is screened and tested for transmissible diseases during processing, and because the cells are non-living, rejection risk is minimal.
When performed by a qualified provider on an appropriate candidate, it has a strong safety profile, though as with any injectable treatment, risks exist. Careful patient selection, planning, and placement technique all matter, which is why the procedure should be done by an experienced cosmetic surgeon. Your doctor would review your medical history and discuss the benefits and risks before treatment.
Recovery is short, though individual timelines vary.
Expect mild swelling over the treated areas, soreness similar to a hard glute workout, and possibly light bruising. The buttocks may look slightly fuller than the final result while swelling is present.

Yes and no. A traditional Brazilian Butt Lift is a fat transfer that uses your own fat, taken through liposuction. alloClae® fat transfer uses donated, processed adipose tissue instead, so you get the natural quality of a fat-based result without harvesting fat from your body.
The cost of alloClae® at Allure Esthetic starts at $100 per cc, with a 10 cc minimum. Because the buttocks are a large area treated on both sides, total volume varies from patient to patient. Your exact estimate is confirmed at your consultation.

alloClae® is made from screened donor tissue processed under tissue-banking standards, and it avoids the deep fat injection linked to the higher risks of surgical BBLs. The non-living cells minimize rejection risk. As with any injectable treatment, temporary swelling, soreness, or bruising can occur. Dr. Sajan reviews your medical history to confirm the treatment is right for you.
Results are intended to be long-lasting, though some settling occurs as swelling resolves. Longevity varies by patient, volume placed, and lifestyle factors like weight changes. Dr. Sajan will discuss expected duration and whether a future touch-up may help.
The minimum treatment is 10 cc, but the buttocks typically call for more volume than smaller areas, and needs vary widely based on your anatomy and goals. Your exact plan is mapped out at your consultation.
The area is numbed with local anesthetic before placement, so most patients find the treatment very tolerable. Afterward, the buttocks feel sore for a day or two, similar to an intense workout, and over-the-counter pain relief is usually enough.
A surgical BBL harvests your own fat through liposuction and transfers it under general anesthesia or sedation, with several weeks of limited sitting. An alloClae BBL uses donated tissue placed in the office with local numbing and no liposuction, with most patients back to normal in 24 to 48 hours. The trade-off is that a surgical BBL can achieve larger-volume reshaping.
Some volume is visible right after treatment, though swelling can temporarily change how the area looks. The treated area continues to settle over the following days, and the final result is best judged at the follow-up visit recommended by the provider.
alloClae® is designed to provide lasting volume, though alloClae® permanent doesn't have a single yes-or-no answer that applies to every patient. Duration varies by individual, and factors like aging and weight changes can affect the appearance of results over time.
