Butt Augmentation

The butt area is a region that greatly affects the general appearance according to the general aesthetic perception. That’s why many people  try to achieve the appearance of lifted and rounded buttocks. However, it is not always very easy to achieve this image. Due to reasons such as genetic factors and low muscle or fat ratio, it  may become very difficult for individuals to have a fuller and natural buttocks appearance. With butt augmentation operations, it becomes much easier to achieve this appearance. 

What is Butt Augmentation?

Buttock augmentation is some medical interventions applied in  the field of plastic surgery to increase hip volume.Within the scope of buttock augmentation, a round buttock appearance  can be obtained by using many different things from silicone implants compared to fat injections. Butt augmentation procedures can be performed not only to obtain a raised and full hip appearance, but  also to balance the body proportion. However, buttock augmentation procedures should not be performed by people who introduce themselves with adjectives such as beauticians, but by plastic surgeons who are knowledgeable and experienced in aesthetic buttock augmentation.

How is Butt Augmentation Surgery Performed?

How buttock augmentation surgery will be performed is determined by the situation. When  it comes to hip volume increase  operations, plastic surgeons make a plan suitable for the person, taking into account many different factors such as the general health status of the patient, demands, hip appearance and body lines. Within the scope of this planning, different methods can be used for buttock augmentation  surgery.The details of the operation process are determined by choosing from options such as  silicone hip prosthesis or butt augmentation with fat injection.

Who Is Butt Augmentation Suitable For?

Buttock augmentation may seem suitable for many people. Many people are born with a fairly flat and misshapen buttocks. This situation is among the situations that may not appeal to the aesthetic perception of both women and men. Therefore, both women and men can benefit from butt augmentation applications or surgeries in order to achieve a more shaped and natural buttocks appearance. However, in order to be eligible for buttock augmentation, it is necessary to meet the candidate criteria and not to have situations where buttock augmentation surgery is not suitable. 

Butt Augmentation Candidate Criteria 

The candidate criteria sought for buttock augmentation operations can be explained in a few items. 

  • Be over 18 years old 
  • Having sufficient adipose tissue (This criterion  applies to buttock augmentation with fat injection.)
  • Not smoking or being determined to stop smoking before and after the operation 
  • Good general health 

Situations Where Butt Augmentation Surgery Is Not Suitable

There are a few situations where buttock augmentation surgery is not suitable. The first situation where buttock augmentation is not suitable is, of course, that the individual is under the age of 18. Not meeting the age criterion of 18  prevents buttock augmentation  surgery both legally and health-wise. Another situation is  that the individual does not have enough fat tissue required for hip shaping. Therefore, too many thin individuals cannot benefit from buttock augmentation, especially with fat injection. 

Butt Enlargement Methods

Many people think that butt augmentation applications and surgeries are performed by adopting a standard procedure. However, this is not actually the case. There are multiple methods that can be used as a butt augmentation method. These methods offer advantages to patients in various aspects and respond better to different problems. Butt augmentation methods can be discussed in a much more detailed and informative way under a few headings. 

Buttock Augmentation with Fat Injection 

Buttock augmentation with fat injection is a method also known as Brazilian Butt Lift. In this method, aesthetic buttock augmentation  is performed without the need for a hip filling  consisting of foreign materials. In the buttock augmentation method with fat injection, as the name of the method suggests,  adipose tissue is used as hip filling. This adipose tissue is obtained from the individual’s own body and thus  helps to achieve a very natural buttocks appearance and reduce the risk of allergic reactions. 

Buttock Augmentation with Silicone Implant

Buttock augmentation surgery with silicone implants is a more classical method than buttock augmentation with fat injection. This method is medically known as gluteal augmentation and is performed with implants placed in the butt area. These silicone implants are medical materials of different sizes and made of different materials, just like implants that can be used in applications such as breast aesthetics.  Buttock augmentation operation performed with silicone hip prosthesis offers longer-lasting results compared to other methods.  

Advantages of Butt Augmentation Surgery

Buttock augmentation surgery is not an aesthetic operation that offers superficial results as it is thought, but a very advantageous surgery. Butt shape, hip fullness and the appearance of the hip area in general affect not only the aesthetics of the general appearance, but also many issues such as clothing selection. For example, many individuals who have not achieved hip fullness may be restricted in choosing various clothes because they do not fit or do not look aesthetically pleasing. Buttock augmentation surgery can be applied  to provide advantages in many issues, including such restrictions.

Fuller and More Attractive Buttocks 

In order to have fuller and more attractive buttocks, methods such as exercises that work the hip muscles can be used. However, it is very difficult to achieve results with these methods and sometimes the results obtained may not be effective enough. At this point, it is possible to achieve a fuller and more attractive buttocks appearance by achieving effective results quickly and easily with hip augmentation surgeries. 

Balancing Body Lines and Aesthetic Appearance

Performing hip volume increase  procedures within the scope of hip augmentation surgery helps not only the hip area but also the body in general to look more aesthetic. The hip area is an important area that affects how the body lines look in general. If a plump and natural hip appearance is obtained  in this area, body proportion balancing is also done. In this way, it becomes possible to have a much more shaped and aesthetic body. 

Recovery Process After Butt Augmentation Surgery

The recovery process after buttock augmentation surgery is a very important and sensitive period. Many people approach buttock augmentation surgeries with concern because the wrong movements of some individuals during the recovery process after buttock augmentation surgery have caused them to encounter complications. However, in fact, being careful during the recovery process after buttock augmentation surgery, following the doctor’s recommendations and exhibiting important movements in the name of care reduces the risk of complications and makes buttock augmentation surgery a harmless operation. 

Post-Operative Care and Recovery Process 

The care suggestions offered in order to get through the recovery process after buttock augmentation surgery without any problems can be explained in a few items. 

  • Before buttock augmentation surgery, you should stop using blood thinners with the approval of a doctor and not use blood thinners for the period recommended by your doctor after the surgery. 
  • You should stay away from activities such as jumping and lying down. 
  • After buttock augmentation surgery, you should stay away from sitting and sleeping positions that may cause too much weight on your hips, especially for a few weeks. 

Scar Reduction and Post-Operative Scar Care

What needs to be done to reduce scars after buttock augmentation surgery varies according to the situation. If butt augmentation has been performed with fat injection, there is no need to do anything to reduce the scars because very minimal scars remain from the fat injection and these scars become vague in a short time. However, if buttock augmentation has been performed with silicone hip prosthesis, it may be necessary to use scar care creams or turn to laser treatments to remove the incision scars remaining from the surgery.  

Frequently Asked Questions

Is buttock augmentation with fat injection permanent?

Buttock augmentation with fat injection is usually not permanent. In the buttock augmentation process performed with fat injection, as the name of the procedure suggests, fat tissue is used as hip filling. However, the adipose tissue taken from the body of the individual and injected into the buttocks is lost as a result of the individual’s weight loss, that is, fat loss. Therefore, some individuals take care not to lose fat after fat injection and increase the permanence time of the procedure. Because of all these, it would not be correct to say that butt augmentation with fat injection will lead to completely permanent results. 

How should the sitting position be after buttock augmentation surgery?

Sitting position after buttock augmentation surgery is an important issue that you should be very sensitive about. After buttock augmentation surgery, it is necessary to avoid sitting normally in order not to damage the fat tissue injected into the area or the silicone hip prosthesis inserted. In a normal, that is, standard sitting position, a lot of weight is placed on the hips. Therefore, after buttock augmentation surgery, it is necessary to lie face down or lie on your side as much as possible instead of standing in a normal sitting position. 

Will there be any scars after buttock augmentation surgery?

Scarring after buttock augmentation surgery depends on the preferred method for surgery. There is no obvious and disturbing scar in buttock augmentation surgeries performed by preferring the butt augmentation method with fat injection. However,  after butt augmentation surgeries performed using silicone hip prosthesis, scars remain. This scar is a scar left by the incision made in the butt area and its color may lighten over time and become uncomfortable. Despite all these, if you are uncomfortable with the scars left by buttock augmentation surgery, you can start receiving scar treatment in consultation with your doctor. 

When can you start exercising after buttock augmentation surgery?

In order to start doing sports after buttock augmentation surgery, it is usually necessary to get through the 3-4 week early recovery period. Since this early healing process is a very sensitive process and carries a risk of complications, it is absolutely necessary to stay away from doing sports during this process. However, it is possible to start taking light walks a few days after butt augmentation surgery. In addition, adverse conditions that may occur after surgery, such as complications, may prolong the time to start doing sports. 

What is the risk of complications after buttock augmentation surgery?

The risk of complications after buttock augmentation surgery varies depending on multiple factors. The main factors determining the risk of postoperative complications in buttock augmentation surgeries are; Choosing a surgical method suitable for the patient, the experience of the plastic surgeon, the general health status of the patient and the behaviors exhibited after the surgery. Therefore, it would not be correct to give clear information about the risk of complications after buttock augmentation surgery, and individuals should consult their doctor on this issue.  

When will the results be seen after buttock augmentation surgery?

When the results will be seen after buttock augmentation surgery may vary from person to person. It is necessary to wait for a few months for the results to begin to be seen after the Brazilian Butt Lift operation, which is performed with fat injection. The main reason for this situation is that some of the injected adipose tissue is absorbed by the body at first and edema occurs. The results of buttock augmentation surgery performed using silicone implants can be seen a few weeks after the surgery.
