Buttocks Augmentation / Implants

There are many men and women who are unhappy with their buttocks. Their butt is too flat, too wide, or sagging. Cloths don't fit or look good on them. They were either born like this, or lost the form and shape of their buttocks after losing or gaining weight. Pregnancy, or just aging alone, can also affect the size, projection, and profile of the buttocks.

Buttocks Fat Transplantation

Brazilian Butt Lift or Buttock Augmentation with fat grafting involves harvesting your own body fat from other areas of excess and transferring it into the buttock tissue. For example excess fat in the flanks, hips, lower back, thighs, or abdomen is liposuctioned, processed and then injected into the Gluteal muscles and soft tissue of your buttocks. During this fat grafting process the buttocks can be contoured to the desired shape and size. The fullness and projection of the buttocks can be greatly increased by laying many fine layers of micro-fat grafts throughout the thickness of the Gluteal muscle and the subcutaneous tissue.

Buttocks Implants

The fullness and projection of the buttocks can be augmented with either natural fat injection /grafting or with Buttock Implants. Buttock implants can give a very satisfactory result. Gluteal implants are made of solid silicone, which has the same consistency, and feel as that of a buttock. These implants are permanent and do not need not be replaced over time.

Implants placed in the buttocks are comprised of a silicone shell filled with a firm but flexible material, typically silicone. These implants are designed to maintain a natural feel to the buttocks. However, types of implants used may vary, depending on the surgeon.

Who are the best candidates?
Gluteal fat transfer and buttock implants are available for those who desire youthful, fuller, and perky buttocks, with a more sensual body profile. These techniques for buttock augmentation or enhancement vary depending on what is the actually missing and what is the overall body frame and form.

The decision for the shape and size of the implants is made depending on each person’s individual desires and on their general body build. Buttock implants are very soft, solid silicone implants.

About the Procedure and Recovery Time
Patients might experience greater pain during the recovery period than other common cosmetic surgery procedures and the recovery time is usually longer. This is because this is an area of the body that is required for so many movements! Standard pain medications typically are prescribed to help with the discomfort. After approximately 3-5 days the patient is able to be up and about; moving, walking, and sitting more comfortably. There is generally very little swelling and bruising after gluteal fat transfer or butt implants, so the results may be seen very soon after surgery. Full physical activities are usually permitted within 4-6 weeks after surgery.

What to expect
The surgery is performed with the patient asleep (general anesthesia). The patient may be uncomfortable the first several days. It is difficult to turn in any position to get comfortable and it is important that someone be with the person at least overnight and probably for the next several days just to help get out of bed, prepare meals, etc.
