Buttock augmentation is a plastic surgery procedure involving the surgical placement of synthetic implants into the buttocks to build a fuller, rounder, and more sensuous rear side.
Patients in Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and surrounding communities have an opportunity to receive buttock augmentation from board certified plastic surgeons at MBody.
Candidacy
Individuals with underdeveloped buttocks will usually make fantastic candidates for buttock augmentation in order to achieve a more proportionate figure. The procedure is equally effective for women and men. Women who are unhappy with the inadequate size of their buttocks or want to attain an ‘hour glass’ figure may make salient candidates for butt implants.
Men with flat, poorly defined or saggy buttocks can enhance the shape of the buttocks to their liking with butt lift fat transfer procedure. People who are bothered about their disproportionately small buttocks, who want to look attractive and want their clothes to fit better, and who want to improve their self-confidence levels may make suitable candidates for buttock augmentation plastic surgery.
Benefits
Buttock augmentation with fat transfer injections will help to create definition in the buttocks and build a more prominent and sensuous backside. At the same time, this procedure offers two key advantages over butt implants:
- Success rate of the fat transfer butt augmentation is higher because no synthetic implants are involved. The surplus fat is taken out from the patient’s own body, which makes it complete biocompatible. Body contours in the donor sites may also improve.
- The procedure with fat transfer injections becomes relatively less invasive than with butt implants. The discomfort, downtime, and risks associated with the surgery are reduced with this treatment option.
Board certified plastic surgeons at MBody receive patients from Northern Virginia, Washington DC, Vienna, McLean, Loudoun, Ashburn, Tysons Corner, Reston, Arlington, Chevy Chase, Richmond, Fredricksburg and nearby areas for buttock augmentation.
Procedure
The procedure is usually completed in about 90 minutes to three hours. As a first step, the surgeon will harvest excess fatty tissue from one or more donor areas on the patient’s body. The fat removal procedure will be similar to traditional liposuction. The second step will involve sterilizing, purifying, and processing of the collected fat for re-injection into the targeted areas in the buttocks.
The newly introduced fat tissue will bond with the existing tissue to create a natural, augmented look of the buttocks. About one-fourth of harvested fat cells are utilized in the fat grafting process. The fat transfer is accomplished using an extremely small needle to create smooth, even and natural looking curves in the desired areas.
Recovery
Following buttock augmentation, the patient will be confined to home for about one week. During this period, they should perform short walks at home frequently to promote blood flow, and avoid sitting directly on the buttocks. After a week, the patient typically returns to quiet, low intensity work for the first few days that does not involve sitting long on the buttocks.
It is not uncommon for butt augmentation patients to make use of pillows under their thighs to sit without disrupting the healing process. A compression garment should be worn at all times as instructed by the surgeon.
