Buttock Augmentation (or “butt augmentation” or “butt implants”): which is an cosmetic surgery enhancement of the buttocks. This procedure can be performed by using either silicone implants or a fat grafting and transfer from other areas of the patient’s body to the buttocks.
There are two types of buttock augmentation:
* The surgical enlargement of the buttocks through the insertion of a synthetic implant.
* The lifting of the buttocks.
One of the most common types of shape-modifying injections to one’s bottom is the “Brazilian butt lift”. Although this cosmetic procedure is also referred to as fat injections, fat transfer, or fat grafting. It usually consists of a combination of liposuction around the buttocks and many injections of fat into the buttocks. The fat is harvested by liposuction from the patient’s buttocks, abdomen or elsewhere on their body. The fat is processed and purified before it is reinjected to the person’s butt. Depending on the amount of augmentation needed, the patient may need to undergo a significant number of fat injections, which are made at various sites and depths inside of the buttocks.
Butt implants are “stronger than breast implants” and made of an elastomer that cannot leak. The implants are placed using a small incision atop of the muscles above the sitting area and below the surrounding fascia in order to secure them. A previous technique of intermuscular augmentation only augmented the upper third of the butt, whereas butt implants can address the entire area of the buttocks. The incision scar will normally heal to where it is barely visible by approximately one year after the cosmetic butt augmentation surgery.
