Buttock Enhancement

What is Buttock Enhancement?

• Buttock enhancement is a procedure in which the shape of the butt is improved using surgical methods. This procedure involves adding volume to the buttocks in the form of fat transfer or butt implants or a combination of both.
• These procedures help patients in achieving the appearance of having a slimmer waist, fuller butts and improved overall fit of the pants as well.
• Genetics, skeletal frame and body type can cause flat butt shape even after regular exercise and diets. Buttock enhancement procedures help in overcoming these factors and resulting in the curves desired by the patient.

Are You Eligible for Buttock Enhancement?

• The patient has lost the natural shape of the buttocks due to recent weight loss.
• The patient feels that the natural shape of butts is too flat or squarish and enhancing them will balance the body shape
• The patient doesn’t smoke or have stopped smoking at least 2 weeks before the surgery
• The patient is medically healthy free from a chronic medical condition like diabetes
• The patient is willing and able to avoid sitting directly on butts for several weeks
• The surgeon will decide the appropriate procedure for the patient based on:
• Butt size and shape of the patient
• The amount of fat on the body of the patient that is available for transfer
• Skin quality and elasticity as well as the amount of extra skin in the butt area of the patient
