The cosmetic procedure has become a popular alternative treatment among both men and women looking to enhance their shape and firmness in their lower body or have experienced an accident that resulted in physical deformity. Buttock augmentation refers to the cosmetic surgery and the various liposuction techniques for the reduction of bulging, asymmetric, and congenital deformities and/or abnormalities of the buttock area; and the improvement of the aesthetics of that area.
Procedures for Butt Augmentation
Liposuction
The most common procedure for butt augmentation is liposuction. Liposuction is a procedure that removes fat cells and deposits. In this case, fat cells are taken from the buttock area, which is the largest organ in the human body, which can be made smaller by using a tube called a cannula to get rid of excessive fat deposits.
Buttock Augmentation
Another popular method used for buttock augmentation is called an augmentation procedure. This is when fat is injected to create a more prominent appearance. The fat is taken from other parts of the body (such as the thighs and back of the thigh.) It is then injected into the buttock area. This type of procedure is not as invasive as using a cannula, which makes it more popular for people who don’t want the pain involved. This procedure usually takes three to six months to see results.
Abdominoplasty
In some cases, buttock augmentation may also include a process called abdominoplasty. Abdominoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves removing excess skin in an attempt to reduce the look of drooping and sagging breasts. This procedure is generally only performed on women but has been known to be successful in men. Abdominoplasty may include the removal of an excess fat pad and the addition of scar tissue.
How will the Process Work for Me?
The success of buttock augmentation depends upon the extent of your problem and whether it is a congenital abnormality or a medical condition. For example, if you want to have buttock augmentation but your buttocks are asymmetrical due to a condition such as polycystic ovarian syndrome, your physician may not recommend this surgery, as it may result in asymmetry. Polycystic ovarian syndrome is caused by hormonal imbalances, which often cause your buttock to appear larger than normal.
If you are interested in buttock augmentation for aesthetic purposes, there are several options available. Many doctors will perform a liposuction procedure and then use a laser to burn off the excess fat.
The effectiveness of buttock augmentation is dependent on the cause of your problem, which is why it’s important to discuss your options with your doctor. A reputable plastic surgeon will have your best interest in mind and perform a thorough physical exam to determine if there is a health problem or if the buttock implant is necessary.
