Buttock Augmentation

عن Buttock Augmentation

Buttock augmentation increases buttock size and improves contour using either silicone implants or fat grafting, chosen based on the patient's available donor fat, anatomy, and desired outcome. When implants are used, the surgeon places them through a small incision, typically within the buttock crease, positioning them within or beneath the gluteal muscle for a stable, natural-feeling result. When fat grafting is preferred, fat is harvested by liposuction from another area and injected into the buttocks, which also has the benefit of contouring the donor site. Implant-based augmentation is performed under general anesthesia and generally takes about two hours, while fat-grafting procedures take longer depending on the volume transferred. Candidates for implants are typically patients with limited donor fat, while those with adequate fat elsewhere may prefer grafting to avoid a foreign implant. Recovery for both approaches requires avoiding direct pressure on the buttocks for several weeks, with specialized cushions or altered sleeping positions recommended, along with a compression garment and a gradual return to exercise over four to six weeks. Patients considering buttock augmentation in India typically discuss both implant and fat-grafting options with their surgeon during consultation to determine the better fit for their body type.
