Buttocks augmentation, also called gluteal , creates a rounder, firmer and more youthful-looking buttocks . the procedures can remove loose, sagging skin or enlarge a flatter surface. In some cases, your plastic surgeon may combine surgery techniques to give you the results you want.

Buttocks augmentation may use fat transfer, implants or lifting techniques to help shape and sculpt your buttocks.

What are the types of the surgery ?

it consists of three types:

• Butt implants: Your plastic surgeon inserts silicone implants into your butt to create a fuller shape.

• Butt lift: Your plastic surgeon removes excess skin to lift your butt for a smoother, more toned appearance.

Who is a good candidate for buttocks augmentation?

Each surgery uses a different technique. So, you may qualify for one procedure but not another. Talk to your plastic surgeon about the best butt augmentation option for you.

• Are healthy.
• Are prepared to deal with recovery.
• Don’t have a chronic condition that interferes with wound healing, such as diabetes.

And someone who has unstable weight shouldn’t have a butt lift.

RISKS / BENEFITS

What are the benefits of butt augmentation?
