Buttock Augmentation in San Diego, CA by San Diego Body Contouring

There’s no doubt about it: full, lifted butts are more popular than ever. Today, buttock augmentation is one of the fastest-growing cosmetic procedures, offering women who desire a curvy, hourglass figure a way to permanently enhance the size and shape of their bottoms without spending hours at the gym. Whether you desire the soft, natural results of Brazilian butt lift surgery or a dramatic look with butt implants, Dr. Sarosy can guide you towards the right procedure for your desired outcome.

What is butt augmentation plastic surgery?

Butt augmentation plastic surgery, also called butt enhancement, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reshape and lift the gluteal area. There are two main approaches to butt augmentation: butt implant surgery and fat transfer – also called a Brazilian butt lift. At your consultation, Dr. Sarosy will recommend an approach based on the size and shape of your buttocks, your skin and body type, and your goals for the procedure.

During butt augmentation plastic surgery with implants, Dr. Sarosy will start by making small incisions hidden either in the fold between your butt cheeks, the outer corners of the upper buttocks, or at the bottom of your buttocks in the natural gluteal crease. Then, working one buttock at a time, Dr. Sarosy will carefully place a solid silicone implant either in the muscle or above the gluteal muscle on each side. Finally, the incisions are closed with sutures in the buttock tissue and with sutures or adhesive on the skin.

Following the butt augmentation procedure, your rear end will immediately appear more voluminous and shapely. Unlike fat transfer, butt augmentation, where up to 40 percent of the injected fat is absorbed and eliminated by the body, results with butt implants are dramatic and permanent regardless of weight gain or loss over time.

What’s the difference between butt augmentation and Brazilian butt lift?

Butt augmentation is a general term used to describe any procedure that enhances the size and shape of the buttocks. At San Diego Body Contouring, our butt augmentation surgery involves using implants to increase the fullness and roundness of the buttocks for instantaneous and permanent results. Butt augmentation is most appropriate for treating flat or poorly defined buttocks, particularly in slim or athletic patients who do not have adequate fat tissue for a transfer.

A Brazilian butt lift is a butt augmentation that uses a patient’s own fat tissue rather than implants to achieve the desired results. During a fat transfer buttock augmentation, Dr. Sarosy uses liposuction to take fat from one area of the body, usually the abdomen, thighs, or hips and then redistributes it to the buttocks to sculpt a sexy, contoured figure. Fat transfer buttock augmentation is best for patients with sagging buttocks and enough excess fat for harvesting.

What are the benefits of butt augmentation plastic surgery?

Patients who desire a full, round bottom and cannot achieve the results they want with diet and exercise can get a sexy hourglass figure with butt augmentation plastic surgery. Beyond filling out a skimpy pair of bikini bottoms, here are a few exceptional benefits of butt augmentation:

• Your body will appear more balanced and proportionate
• Your favorite pair of skin-tight jeans will fit better
• Your buttocks will appear firmer and more lifted
• Loose, sagging, or flat buttocks become curvaceous and youthful
• Larger buttocks can make your waist and thighs appear smaller

Are butt implants safer than fat transfer?

The techniques required for a butt implant are far more invasive than those needed for a fat transfer (a Brazilian Butt Lift). Therefore, additional surgical risks, like infection, prolonged wound healing, allergic reactions, excessive bleeding, and fluid formation, are present. However, when you use a board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Sarosy at San Diego Body Contouring, your risks can be significantly reduced.

How long is the recovery for buttock implants?

The general recovery timeline after receiving butt implants in San Diego, is two to three weeks. You should plan to take at least two weeks off from work and rest at home as much as possible. Even though you may be able to resume work and light activities after two weeks, bruising and swelling may last for a short while longer.

How much fat do you need for a butt transfer?

How Much Fat is Needed for a Fat Transfer to Buttocks Butt Lift? Generally speaking, a plastic surgeon will need to harvest at least 1000 cc of fat (500 ccs of fat per buttock) for a fat transfer or buttock butt lift surgery. However, most patients receive around 800 ccs of fat per buttock. Our board-certified cosmetic surgeon in San Diego will discuss your specific needs during a free consultation.
