Buttock Augmentation (Fat/lipofilling)

The specific protocol for buttock augmentation can vary depending on the specific surgical technique or approach used, as well as the individual patient's needs and goals. However, here is a general overview of the steps involved in a typical buttock augmentation procedure:

Consultation: The patient meets with a plastic surgeon to discuss their desired outcomes and determine if they are a good candidate for the procedure.

Anesthesia: The patient is given anesthesia to ensure their comfort during the surgery.

Incision: The surgeon makes an incision in the desired area, typically in the crease between the buttocks or at the top of the buttocks.

Implant placement: The surgeon then places the buttock implants into the desired location, either above or below the gluteal muscle.

Closing the incision: The incision is then closed with sutures or surgical tape.

Recovery: The patient will be monitored closely during their recovery period to ensure that they heal properly and without complications.

It's important to note that the specific protocol for buttock augmentation may vary based on the individual's anatomy, medical history, and other factors. It's important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine the best approach for your specific needs and goals.

Buttock augmentation with buttock implants compared to fat transfer?

Buttock augmentation can be achieved through the use of buttock implants or fat transfer (also known as Brazilian Butt Lift or BBL). Here's a comparison of the two procedures:

Buttock augmentation with implants:

Involves the insertion of silicone implants into the buttocks to create a more prominent and shapely appearance.

Typically requires general anesthesia and is considered a more invasive procedure compared to fat transfer.

Recovery time is usually longer, with patients being advised to avoid sitting or lying on their backs for several weeks after surgery.
Results are typically more predictable and long-lasting compared to fat transfer.

Implants may be more suitable for patients with limited fat deposits or who desire a more dramatic change in buttock size and shape.
Buttock augmentation with fat transfer:

Involves the removal of fat from other areas of the body through liposuction and the injection of that fat into the buttocks to enhance their shape and size.

Usually performed under general anesthesia or IV sedation, and is considered a less invasive procedure compared to implant surgery.
Recovery time is typically shorter than with implant surgery, although patients will still need to avoid sitting or lying on their backs for a few weeks after surgery.

Results are generally more natural-looking and feel more natural compared to implants.

Fat transfer may be more suitable for patients who have enough fat in other areas of the body for transfer and who want a more subtle enhancement of their buttocks.

Ultimately, the choice between buttock implants and fat transfer will depend on individual patient preferences, goals, and medical considerations. It's important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine the best approach for your specific needs.

Buttock augmentation using the lipofilling technique has several advantages 

Natural-looking results: Since the procedure involves using the patient's own fat to enhance the buttocks, the results are typically more natural-looking and feel more natural compared to using implants.

Body contouring: The liposuction involved in the procedure can help contour other areas of the body, such as the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing overall appearance.

Minimally invasive: The lipofilling technique is a minimally invasive procedure that does not require large incisions or the placement of foreign objects in the body, resulting in less scarring and a shorter recovery time compared to implant surgery.

Lower risk of complications: The risk of complications, such as infection, implant shifting or rupture, is lower with the lipofilling technique since it does not involve the use of foreign objects.

Long-lasting results: While some of the injected fat may be reabsorbed by the body, the remaining fat cells can provide long-lasting results. Moreover, weight gain or loss after the procedure can also affect the shape and size of the buttocks.

Personalized results: The lipofilling technique can be tailored to the individual patient's needs and goals, allowing for a more personalized approach to buttock augmentation.

It's important to note that the lipofilling technique is not suitable for everyone and may have some risks and limitations. It's important to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine if the lipofilling technique is the right approach for your specific needs and goals.
