Buttock Augmentation – ‘Brazilian’ Butt Lift & Implants

Buttock Augmentation

In the past few years, buttock augmentation has become continuously popular worldwide, providing patients with a shapelier and lifted buttock figure. This popularity is most likely related to the symbol of sensuality and femininity a shapelier buttock has. At Gawley Plastic Surgery, we use the most revolutionary methods for enlarging and reshaping your buttocks, including fat grafting, which uses your natural fatty tissue (also known as Brazilian butt lift), or injectable fillers.

Benefits of Buttock Augmentation

There are many advantages when it comes to buttock augmentation. If you are wondering if you could benefit from this procedure, here are some reasons why buttock enhancement is an excellent option for creating a shapelier silhouette:

• Reconstruct a more balanced appearance, if your buttocks are too small for your body frame.
• If you are unhappy with a flat, square buttock shape, and would like more curves.
• If aging or weight loss has resulted in a sagging, flat or loose buttocks.
• Clothes and swimwear don’t fit properly on your figure.
• Your buttocks will have a firmer, rounder, and uplifted appearance, for a more curvaceous, youthful look.

How it Works

Buttock augmentation is performed in two popular methods, including autologous fat transfer and buttock implants.

Autologous Fat Transfer – “Brazilian” Butt Lift

During this process, a gentle form of liposuction is performed to harvest fat from one area of your body, which may include your abdomen, hips, backs, or thighs. Then the suctioned fat is processed for fat transfer and reinjected into small incision sites. These incisions are minimalistic and will be easily hidden by clothing. When fat grafting occurs, our surgeons graft the fat in layers at multiple levels to ensure a smooth, linear deposit of fat is left to enhance and reshape the buttock area. Then the incisions are closed, and a compression garment is worn after surgery.

Buttock Injectables

This form of buttock lift is non-surgical and non-invasive. The buttock injectables help to lift the buttock, add volume, and reduces lines, wrinkles, and cellulite. Another benefit of the injectables is that they promote collagen production which helps tighten the buttock. This treatment can be done between thirty minutes to an hour. Your plastic surgeon will choose injection sites that will give you your desired results and inject the filler at these treatment points. Many patients will start to notice a change within a week. Most patients get more than one treatment done for optimal results.

There Is little aftercare for this treatment, but patients may feel some soreness for a few days after the treatment.

Buttock Implants

We do not recommend buttock implants to our patients due to complications with these products. Implants are most commonly used for poorly defined buttocks, or for patients who have limited excess fatty tissue for harvesting. During this procedure, a soft rounded shaped silicone implant is placed through an incision in your natural buttock crease. However, other incision sites may be recommended. Then the implant is positioned above the pelvic bone and below the buttock muscle, or gluteal. Then the incisions are closed with sutures, and a compression garment is worn after surgery.

It is important to have an in-depth consultation with one of our surgeons before your buttock augmentation to choose your ideal method based on your desired results.  We want you to get the most out of your consultation. If at all possible, it is best to make arrangements for small children to stay home rather than having them join us for your appointments.

At Gawley Plastic Surgery we help our patients get their ideal buttock shape through the Brazilian butt lift or the non-invasive butt lift.

Buttock Augmentation Candidates

Ideal candidates can only be determined after an initial consultation at our Scottsdale, Arizona practice. Buttock augmentation is an excellent way to increase your self-esteem and achieve a shapelier figure that isn’t always possible with diet and exercise. Good candidates for this procedure include:

• Patients that are in overall good health
• Near or at your target weight
• Non-smokers

However, buttock augmentation is not for everyone, and Gawley Plastic Surgery does not recommend this procedure for patients with the following conditions:

• Diabetes
• Obesity
• Heart Disease
• Clotting disorders or poor circulation

If you are unsatisfied with the shape of your buttocks and desire a new and improved figure, buttock augmentation may be right for you. To learn more about this procedure, please contact our office to schedule your initial consultation in the Scottsdale and Phoenix, Arizona area.
