Buttock Aesthetics
For years, we plastic surgeons have overlooked buttock aesthetics, which could be considered the sibling of breast aesthetics. Yet, for years, our patients have complained about their buttocks being too small, not round enough, saggy, or having cellulite. In recent years, however, we are now able to address these concerns.
What are buttock aesthetic procedures?
In patients with significant fat accumulation in areas such as around the buttocks, waist, love handles, and sacrum, applying liposuction to these areas is often sufficient to highlight the natural volume and beauty of the buttocks. In other words, sculpting the waist and buttock area through liposuction can make the buttocks stand out more. However, for some patients, this approach is not enough, and additional procedures like inserting implants into the muscle or performing fat injections under the skin may be necessary.
Is it possible to completely eliminate cellulite?
Regarding cellulite treatment, although plastic surgery has made significant advancements, the treatments available today cannot completely eliminate this issue. For this reason, you should pay attention to your diet and exercise routine.
What is a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)?
In this surgical procedure, your doctor will examine you 360 degrees to identify areas with excess fat accumulation and perform liposuction on these areas. The harvested fat is then injected into the buttocks. At the end of the procedure, you achieve a slimmer waist and a more defined, contoured buttock appearance.
Are there risks associated with a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Thromboembolism and pulmonary embolism are among the most concerning complications. If you know that you have a predisposition to clotting, it is essential to inform your doctor.
Fat embolism, which occurs when the injected fat enters the bloodstream and damages vital organs, is another undesirable complication.
In addition to these two serious complications, contour irregularities and delayed wound healing may also occur.
