Buttock Augmentation (Enhance Hourglass Body Shaping)

· Those in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for at least 2 weeks and interested in enhancing buttocks.
· Those with loose/dangling skin at the buttocks and at the back of their upper thighs.
· Those who wish to enhance the appearance of their buttock and thigh area.
· Those who wish to improve skin elasticity in the buttock area.
· Those who wish to regain some buttock fats for the fuller appearance.

Also known as gluteoplasty, a buttock surgery is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to curve or shape the buttocks to obtain a firmer and well-proportioned backside. Whether you wish to increase volume, enhance symmetry, or perhaps upgrade the shape of your buttocks, this surgical procedure will enhance your overall body proportions. It raises and tightens the skin of the buttocks. Excess, undesirable skin is trimmed off, after which adjacent tissues are repositioned to produce a younger-looking and appealing body curve.

Buttock augmentation at our affiliated clinic has 2 methods:

· Implant
Insertion of implants onto the pockets made inside the buttocks area

· Fat Transfer
Collection of fats from other parts of body such as abdomen or thigh and inject onto the buttocks area

<Implant>
1. Application of general anesthesia
2. An incision may be created in any one of the following areas: where the cheek meets the back of the thigh, or at the crease of the buttock. The incision will be generally made in the buttock crease, where scars are not visible.
3. A pocket big enough to place the butt implants will be made by the surgeon. The implants will be inserted either under the gluteus maximus muscle or over the muscle. Occasionally, liposuction will be performed as a way to further boost the shape of the buttocks.
4. After completing the same procedure on the other buttock, the appearance and symmetry will be checked. Then, the incisions will be sutured.

<Fat Transfer>
1. Application of general anesthesia
2. Liposuction from either abdomen or thigh area to obtain the fat
3. Processing of fat ready for the transfer
4. Injection of fat into the buttocks

Fat Transfer, using your own natural fats obtained by liposuction, has permanent results compared to the implants. Also, there is a lower risk of rejection or infection as no foreign substances such as implants will be introduced to the body. However, the fat transfer might not be able to work for the ones with insufficient fats available throughout the body; hence here's when implants would be used.

There is also a difference in recovery time. Buttock implants require you to not sit on your bottom for 3 weeks as part of the healing process, whereas fat transfer to the buttocks allows you to sit on your buttocks post-operatively.

Q1: Can I sit after my butt augmentation?
A1: You need to avoid putting pressure on your buttocks for 3 days, so you must lie down on a prone position. You may sit fully on your buttocks on the 7th day.

Q2: How do I prepare for my butt augmentation procedure?
A2: Stop smoking, drinking alcoholic beverages, taking hormonal pills, herbal supplements, and medicines (other than those that your doctor allows you to continue), at least 2 weeks before your schedule. Those with diseases need surgical clearance from their medical specialist.
