Pure Plastic Surgery is a Miami based plastic surgery practice that was launched in 2018 by acclaimed surgeon Dr. S. Alexander Earle. Dr. \u00a0Earle is an Ivy League-educated, double board-certified plastic surgeon with vast experience in both reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. Haute Beauty chats with Dr. Earle about how he is now implementing ultrasound technology into his BBL procedures.<\/p>\n

HB: What is an Ultrasound-Assisted BBL?\u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Gluteal <\/span>fat grafting- commonly referred to as \u201cThe Brazilian Butt Lifts\u201d- is an increasingly common plastic surgery procedure all around the world. However, complication rates, including mortality, have been reported. Because I pride myself on safety first I needed <\/span>to find a safer way to perform this procedure. Months of research brought me to Ultrasound-assisted BBLs.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0The <\/span>procedure entails using a wireless ultrasound probe placed on the buttocks in order to identify the tissue layers; where as the blunted cannula is introduced to the scanned area at the same time. As the fat injection is started, the ultrasound images are projected <\/span>wirelessly to a screen, so that I could follow the planes in which the cannula is being introduced. technology indeed provides a precise objective method to avoid injuring the deep buttock vessels, and further decreasing the risks of major complications regarding <\/span>the BBL surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n

HB: How do Ultrasounds assist in surgery?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Real-Time <\/span>Ultrasound-Assisted gluteal fat grafting provides a precise method to monitor the cannula level and keep the injection site in a safe plane over the muscle. Essentially, Ultrasound turns a once blind procedure into a non-blind procedure which greatly reduces <\/span>risk. Enough reason for me to study and implement this technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

HB: Why do you prefer this method?<\/span><\/h3>\n

This <\/span>method reduces risk because I can now see the cannula as I inject into the safe zone.\u00a0 This method was easily implemented, very small handheld wireless scanner. When you're in the OR space, efficiency is very important.\u00a0 I also spent time training on this <\/span>machine prior to implementation which showed me the importance this machine can have on the BBL industry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
