Non-Surgical BBL, also known as non-surgical buttock augmentation, is a medical procedure designed to enhance and reshape the buttocks without the need for surgery.
Unlike traditional Brazilian Butt Lift, which involves fat transfer or buttock implants, the non-surgical BBL utilises non-invasive procedures to achieve similar results.
Our unique, worldwide-known non-surgical BBL technique, invented by Dr Ducu, is called non-surgical DBL™.
It is known for its benefits and is designed to reduce the risk of infection and migration. Over more than eight years of clinical use, we’ve continually refined our technique and infection‑prevention protocols. However, as with any medical procedure, a small risk of complications remains, and we will discuss this with you in detail during your consultation. DBL™ was developed as an alternative to both surgical and other non‑surgical solutions to correct gluteal asymmetry, gluteal atrophy, and gluteal scarring that may appear as a complication after surgery or trauma. It is also used to treat significant weight loss that leads to excess skin and gluteal atrophy.
The non-surgical BBL is the way to achieve those toned and sculpted buttocks you are dreaming of.
Why would you choose surgery when you have the option of a non-invasive procedure with long-lasting effects? (A consultation is required as some patients are not suitable for the procedure.)
At Dr Ducu Clinics, we are the only provider of DBL™ worldwide. The butt filler injections treatment is minimally invasive, and with our DBL™ technique, it is a very safe way to correct or enhance your gluteal area without the risks and downtime of surgery.
*Like any procedure, DBL™ has risks, and that is why we recommend always booking a consultation with one of our doctors to be sure that this procedure fits your needs.
The DBL™, or Dr Ducu Bum Lift, is a non-surgical procedure that involves the use of dermal fillers to correct, restore, repair, enhance, and lift the buttocks. This approach uses the combination of two types of fillers to achieve more volume, definition, and a firmer appearance without the need for surgery. Fillers are injected into specific areas of the buttocks to shape and contour them. The procedure is relatively quick and involves minimal downtime.
Patients worldwide use this medical procedure to correct lipo BBL complications, butt implant complications, and congenital defects.
The main difference between a DBL™ and a non-surgical BBL lies in the safety and technique of the procedure.
DBL™ was developed as a corrective medical procedure to replace certain surgical corrections when clinically appropriate. It can also be used as a cosmetic buttock‑enhancement treatment.

When choosing between a DBL™ and a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), it’s essential to understand their key differences to find the best option for your goals.
DBL™ is a minimally invasive medical procedure with no downtime, minimal restrictions, and predictable results. In most cases, the final result is visible within 2–4 weeks, and a small touch‑up may sometimes be required.
On the other hand, the Brazilian Butt Lift is a surgical procedure that involves fat transfer from other areas of the body to the buttocks – it has long downtime and recovery time, and final results can take up to 1 year. It is a high-risk surgery.
Non-surgical BBL is often referred to as Liquid BBL. It is a modern alternative to traditional Brazilian Butt Lift surgery. Unlike the surgical method, which involves fat transfer and a lengthy recovery, the non-surgical BBL uses premium dermal fillers to enhance volume, shape, and contour with no incisions, no general anesthesia, and minimal downtime. It’s called “liquid” because the results are achieved through injectable fillers rather than surgical reshaping.
At Dr Ducu Clinics, we offer top-tier Liquid BBL treatments using the exclusive, patented DBL™ (Ducu Butt Lift) technique, ensuring natural-looking curves, symmetry, and long-lasting results tailored to your unique body.
1. Consultation
Before the procedure, you will undergo a comprehensive and in-depth consultation to review and discuss your desired objectives. Your buttock contour will be assessed to ascertain your eligibility for the DBL™.
2. Application of the butt filler injections
On the day of your appointment, a local anaesthetic will be administered to the area, after which the doctor will mark the injection sites. The hyaluronic‑acid buttock fillers are administered through an ultra‑fine cannula to ensure precise results and refined contours. One entry point is used to minimise the risk of infection; therefore, multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired outcome.
3. Aftercare
After the DBL™ session, you may experience some swelling and bruising, which is normal. We will provide a full recovery plan for you and will address all the questions you might have. Side effects of the DBL™ procedure are usually mild. Swelling and redness typically last for 2–7 days, but you can usually return immediately to your daily routine.
4. Results
Results after the procedure are not final due to potential swelling and other body reactions. The final results after DBL™ will begin to appear after 3 weeks. In any case, top-ups may be required.
Our DBL™ (Non-surgical BBL) is tailored specifically to your unique butt shape, ensuring that the treatment enhances your natural curves and achieves the most flattering results. Whether your butt is A-shaped, Round, V-shaped, or Square (H-shaped), we customise the approach to meet your individual needs and goals.
Here is why:
Non-Invasive: Unlike traditional surgical procedures, DBL™ techniques do not require incisions, resulting in minimal trauma to the body and shorter recovery times.
Enhanced Curves: DBL™ can help enhance the curves and contours of the buttocks, providing a fuller and more shapely appearance.
Improved symmetry, correction of atrophy, correction of most gluteal area defects: The butt fillers can address asymmetries or irregularities in buttock shape, creating a more balanced and proportionate appearance.
Natural-looking results: With the use of injectable fillers, the DBL™ can deliver natural-looking results that blend seamlessly with your existing contours.
The top-notch technology and expertise we have at Dr Ducu Clinics allow us to offer a long-lasting solution for an hourglass figure.
Whether your goal is increasing the size and roundness of the buttocks or sculpting your body contours, DBL™ is a long‑lasting solution.
A DBL™ is a great option for someone looking to enhance their backside. The candidate should be at a healthy weight and be in overall good health.
We use DBL™ – hyaluronic acid and polylactic acid – both CE‑marked and UKAS‑approved substances.
Injecting the product is contraindicated in the following situations: sun exposure, smoking, pregnancy and breastfeeding, hypersensitivity to any of the components, autoimmune diseases, leukaemia, infectious diseases, blood‑clotting problems, herpes, acne, unhealed skin problems, complications after surgeries or permanent product injections (silicone, acrylic polymers, dextran), untreated infectious periodontitis, severe myasthenia, multiple sclerosis, Lambert‑Eaton syndrome, ALS, Parkinson’s disease or any other condition affecting the muscles, blood or skin.
Before the Procedure the following activities are forbidden: alcohol use for a period of minimum 2 days, smoking, sun exposure or any other types of radiation, using medications such as antibiotics, aminoglycosides, spectinomycin or any medicine that interferes with the neuromuscular system, or with blood clotting or skin.
Please avoid drinking fizzy drinks or coffee and in the morning of the procedure try to have a full breakfast.
Before the procedure, you will be given an antibiotic tablet, which is required to be taken pre‑procedure to minimise the risk of infection. The agreed areas are then marked and discussed with the patient. Afterwards, the area is cleaned and disinfected, with the targeted area isolated with sterile drapes.
To make the procedure as comfortable as possible, the procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, using an injection.
One entry point is used to minimise the risk of infection therefore, multiple sessions may be required to achieve the desired outcome. Kindly note that the producer recommends a maximum quantity of 150 ml each side per session. Should you ever decide to proceed with more than this quantity, there will be a higher degree of potential risks.
Once localised, the product is then injected deep between the fat layer and muscle, for safety reasons, as well as to create a softer result.
Once the agreed quantity has been injected, the area is massaged to spread the product, which will create a softer and more comfortable feel. There is no need to massage the area again once this is done, and it is not recommended at all to do so after the procedure
You will experience little to no downtime after a DBL™ lift. Mild side effects like redness or numbing may occur for a few days after the procedure, but they will not impact your ability to go back to work or resume exercise. The procedure takes less than an hour to complete and does not involve any downtime.
It takes between 1-2 hours to complete de procedure and you can sit down immediately after, because, as soon as the procedure ends, we do a deep tissue massage that makes the filler move whatever it was supposed to move before, and if the doctor notices any migration that is off the place, he will melt it instantly and in the same time you can sit down without worry that the filler will migrate. You have to wear loose clothing, unlike the surgical BBL (where you don’t) for at least 3 days, but we recommend 5.
Every procedure involves a certain amount of risk, and it is important that you understand these risks and the possible complications associated with them. In addition, every procedure has limitations. An individual’s choice to undergo this procedure is based on the comparison of the risk to the potential benefit.
Even though Hyaluronic Acid is a natural component of the body, injecting it is likely to provoke a body response as if the molecule were a foreign body. Usually, such reactions are temporary, but in some cases they are permanent.
The long-term effect of hyaluronic acid filler is unknown. The possibility of additional risk factors or complications attributable to the use of hyaluronic acid filler as a soft tissue filler may be discovered.
Considering the toxicity of the cross‑linking agent found in the product, injecting it may diminish cellular viability, increase cytotoxicity, alter membrane integrity, reduce mitochondrial membrane potential, and activate the body’s inflammatory response. Factors that can influence such reactions include the patient’s tolerance to injections, their skin type, and their medical history.
In general, side effects occur within the first few days following injection. They usually last only for a short time, but they may last for several months and, in rare cases, longer.
The quality of the clinical outcomes of the treatment cannot be evaluated a priori, and precise guarantees cannot be given about the result obtainable with this treatment, since the response and the individual conditions may be essential in determining the clinical response of the treated patient. Among the risks and side effects of the procedure are bruising, infection, swelling, pain, needle marks, acne-like skin eruptions, skin sensitivity, erythema (skin redness), and asymmetry. These risks are usually temporary and solve on their own.
If the asymmetry is not corrected on its own, touch-ups may be required, with a risk of under-/over correction.
The less likely risks include migration of filler, skin lumpiness, bleeding, visible tissue filler material, granulomas, stroke, cardiovascular and pulmonary complications, embolism, damage to the deeper structures, leakage or rupture of filler material, skin necrosis, open or draining wounds, healing problems, allergic reactions, hypersensitivity, drug and local anaesthetic reactions, depigmentation, venous thrombosis (clot) and sequelae, allergic reactions, fat/air embolism, persistent swelling (lymphedema), antibodies to fillers, accidental intra-arterial injection, scarring, major wound separation and unsatisfactory results. Unforeseen risks may require hospitalisation and/or extended outpatient therapy to permit adequate treatment.
After the Procedure, the following activities are forbidden, for 1 week: manipulating the area(s) of injection, alcohol use, smoking, exposure to sun or other types of radiation, extreme temperatures (such as hot/cold showers, sauna, etc), using products for skin that are not recommended by the doctor for the area undergoing the procedure, any movements or actions of/on the area that can affect or traumatise the area (such as massaging the area, hitting, procedures or treatments on the area unless previously being assessed and deemed suitable by a healthcare practitioner).
Take short walks and proceed with your usual routine as long as it is not too straining. Sleep on your front for 7 days. Treated area to remain clean and dry for 24 hours. Avoid sun, sauna, baths, extreme heat, or cold for 7 days and take your antibiotics as prescribed (1 every 8 hours). There may be some swelling and bruising post-procedure, which is a normal reaction. If any concerns, please contact the Dr Ducu London team.
Dr Ducu London team will always keep in contact with you to ensure you are well. For any inquiries, please feel free to contact us anytime.
It lasts between 18 to 60 months, based on your metabolism and lifestyle, but if you do a touch-up of 50 ml on each side every 9-12 months after 3-4 years, it will not go unless you melt it.
