Buttock Implants
The
buttock implant procedure is one of the best alternatives to increase the buttocks` size.
Buttock implants are usually oval shaped, providing natural results. Unless there is a specific indication for that, big prosthesis's will not be used.
The
buttock implant surgery will be performed under general anesthesia or eperidural anesthesia with sedation.
After the
buttock implant procedure, the patient has to spend 1 to 2 nights at the hospital. The patient will be ready to walk around and sit down normally the following day. The patient can resume their normal routine 20 days after the
buttock implant surgery.
To achieve better results, additional surgical procedures or treatments might be necessary, in order to treat any asymmetry issues or complaints.
Buttock Fat Injections
Buttock fat injections, also known as
fat grafts, are the second step of liposculpture, following the liposuction.
Buttock fat injections are an alternative for
buttock implants. The
buttock fat injections, however, should be carefully performed. It might be possible for the injected fat to be reabsorbed by the body and or complications such as liponecrosis or abscess might arise.
Buttock Lift
A
buttock lift is recommended for sagging buttocks due to a significant weight loss, aging, lack of exercise or even heredity. The buttock lift procedure lifts the buttocks and reduces the laxity; however, it does not increase buttocks` size.
The
buttock lift works to improve the whole body contour, especially when associated with a Flankoplasty (procedure to remove fat and skin from the waist), providing an appearance of increased buttock volume. The
buttock lift might also be performed together with a Liposuction of the waist, hips and thighs, under an appropriate recommendation.
The
buttock lift procedure takes from 2 to 4 hours and will be done under general anesthesia or eperidural anesthesia with sedation. Incisions will be made close to the bikini line, from the waist to the buttock crease. For better results, the
buttock lift procedure might be associated with a Liposuction, Thigh Lift or Buttock Implants.
After the
buttock lift procedure, a compression garment should be worn during the first month of recovery, in order to ensure better results and to reduce swelling. In about 30 days, the patient can resume their normal routine and within 90 days, the patient can resume physical activities.
Flankoplasty (flanks and buttocks surgery)
Flankoplasty removes fat and skin from the waist. This procedure is best indicated in case of skin lax ity and fat on the waist line.
