Buttock Enhancement aka Gluteal Augmentation
The appearance of the buttocks can be altered to increase the fullness and projection of the buttock cheeks or to lift and enhance their shape and definition making the buttocks larger, shapelier, or more proportionate using specialized body-contouring techniques such as fat transfer or silicone implants. It is important for the patient to be realistic in their expectations and be properly informed of the limitations of each method. Sculpting the buttocks area by fat transfer, also known as a Brazilian butt lift, is more suited to those seeking a more subtle change since it relies upon the availability of sufficient fat to bring about the desired results. More commonly, silicone implants are used. Due to their clearly defined shape and vast array of available shapes and sizes, body-contouring implants allow precise positioning and offer the patient more predictable, more significant results, customized for each individual patient.
Silicone Implants – Are they safe for buttock enhancement?
Modern implants used for gluteal contouring are made from an extremely safe, highly durable and flexible solid silicone which mimics the natural texture and preserves the overall feel of the gluteal region, with no unnatural hardening or rippling of the area. They are different from the liquid silicone-filled breast implants used years ago which were considered unsafe due to their potential to rupture or leak. Since gluteal implants are made from a solid, rather than a liquid silicone compound, they maintain their shape, have lasting durability, and do not pose any of the risks that were previously associated with implants. In fact, the silicone material used in body implants is often used to coat objects introduced within the body, such as pacemakers and artificial joints, in order to lessen the body’s reaction to it and reduce the chance of rejection. Today’s implants use scientific advancements and cutting-edge technology to deliver a product that is safe, durable, and highly personalized to each individual to create the derriere of their dreams.
Choosing The Right Doctor to perform you buttock enhancement:
Choosing the right implant is only part of the process. A great outcome relies upon a number of factors and informed decisions which should be addressed and discussed with the surgeon performing your buttock enhancement procedure. The art of body sculpture is exactly that – an art – with you as the canvas and the surgeon as artist. Unlike other surgical procedures where strict adherence to a pre-defined plan is required, body shaping requires both medical ability and an artistic eye to successfully create curves that are believable and natural in appearance. It is in this area of practice that a doctor’s level of skill and experience can have the greatest impact on the end result. Choosing the right doctor can be the difference between a convincing sexy backside with minimal complications or a less flattering result.
