There are 2 common
operations performed in the buttock area., buttock lift and buttock
implant. Buttock implants are usd to fillup the buttock area and accentuate
the natural curves of the buttock. They are similar to a breast implant
but specifically shaped and designed for the buttock region. They come
in various sizes and shapes that should be customized for you. The surgery
for placement requires 2 hours of general or spinal anesthetic.and you
are generally an outpatient procedure. Buttock lift is a different operation.
Buttock lifts do not increase the size of the buttocks like implants
do but lift the sagging buttock. Liposuction can be added to shape the
buttock at the same time. The lift is performed through an incision
that is above the buttocks through which the underlying tissue is undermined
and lifted. Excess tissue is then discarded. This gives a more shapely
appearance to the buttock area.
