Buttock Augmentation

A buttock augmentation removes the excess skin and fat that cause sagging buttocks. The procedure improves body shape by contouring the waist, hips and back of the thighs.

Buttock Augmentation Procedure

Your surgeon will make an incision along your lower back, from hip to hip. The excess skin below the incision is pulled up, lifting the buttocks and outer thighs. The extra skin is then removed. Drains may be placed during surgery. Your will need to wear a supportive garment (abdominal binder) for six weeks to help prevent fluid buildup and provide support during healing.

Risks

• Problems related to anesthesia

• Bleeding

• Infection

• Blood clots

• Widening of the scar

• Seroma (fluid collection under the skin)

• Separation of the incision or poor wound healing

• Numbness in the area (usually temporary)

The buttock augmentation procedure can take up to 2 hours and in most cases you will be able to return home the following day, unless other procedures are performed at the same time. You may experience some moderate to severe discomfort that can be controlled with pain medications. Swelling may occur for 2 to 4 weeks.
