Buttocks Lift

A buttocks lift is another cosmetic surgery procedure that is alternatively known as butt lift. This procedure is relatively new and is done in isolation or as a part of body lift procedure. This procedure improves the body contour of your buttocks and makes it attractive. Perhaps you are aware that the butt lift procedure is carried out in two different ways. In the first method, excess skin is removed thereby tightening the skin in the upper part region of your butt. The second involves administering fat injections or applying implants. While looking at fat injections you might have heard of the term Brazilian Butt Lift. The objective of these procedures in most of the cases is to provide more lift or projection in the butt area. This procedure is also referred to as butt augmentation by some doctors. Irrespective of the type of method used the final result would be lifting of your buttocks.

Once you have decided to go in for butt lift you might have the problem of choosing between the procedures of removing the extra skin or administering fat injections/ butt implants. You must be aware that in case you have large buttocks you should go in for liposuction first. This is performed because of which the actual size of your buttocks is reduced. You might opt for fat injections/ butt implants if you want to have a larger butt. If your buttocks have a sagging appearance you might go in for butt augmentation wherein butt lift is carried out by removing the tissue thereby tightening the skin. If the doctor finds that the sag is only minimal he might recommend performing a “butt wedge”. The scar that appears because of these procedures is hardly noticeable and this is heartening.

Before performing the operation of buttocks lift the patient is administered a twilight anesthesia or general anesthesia. The technique of excess skin removal for butt lift involves cutting an ellipse of fat and skin from the upper region of your buttocks. In most of the cases this area is at the joint of the buttocks with your lower back.

You must realize that this surgery procedure is relatively new. This warrants a highly skilled surgeon and hence while choosing the surgeon you must give extreme importance to this factor.  It is possible for a good doctor to hide the scars that result in this operation. You can consider the result as the best if your scar is not visible while wearing a bathing suit with a bikini piece. After undergoing butt lift surgery procedure it is necessary for you not to sit on your buttocks for a period of 7 days. This is essential in order to avoid unnecessary stress occurring on your operated area. In practice it has been found that the patients return to work after 14 days. This assumes that your job does not involve a lot of sitting. If you have a desk job wherein considerable sitting is required you might have to miss more working days.

A large number of buttocks lift procedures are being done in each year. Nowadays a number of cosmetic specialists are available who can perform this surgery well; you will also be comfortable with such people. You must have a detailed consultation sitting with these surgeons and understand everything that is involved in this procedure.

As indicated earlier you might require only liposuction and buttocks lift is not necessary. It all depends on the needs of the individuals as well as the case.
