Fat Transfer For Buttocks

Fat Transfer to Buttocks Procedure
Your fat transfer to your buttocks begins by harvesting fat cells from another area of your body, such as your thighs, abdomen, back, or chest. The fat is processed and is then injected into your buttocks until the proper enhancement is achieved. The procedure can take from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the level of augmentation that is needed.

For about one week, your buttocks may be tender, but you can resume your normal activities within a few days of the procedure. You may notice that your buttocks are slightly larger than you anticipated. This is a normal effect of the fat transfer, and once the swelling goes down, you will see you newly shaped buttocks. In some cases, additional fat transfers may be needed for best results.

Fat Transfer to Buttocks Benefits
One of the biggest benefits of fat transfer to your buttocks is that your own natural fat cells are used for the procedure. As a result, side effects and complications are lower than with implants. Some patients also feel that fat transfers result in a more natural feel than silicone implants.

If you want to enlarge or reshape your buttocks and have discovered that the area does not respond to diet or exercise, buttock augmentation may be the solution you’ve been looking for. A buttock lift (butt lift) contours the buttocks and compensates for low amounts of fat in the area. Women and men who enlarge their bottoms can enjoy a more voluptuous and perky profile. This type of augmentation can be safely achieved through injections of the patient’s own body fat.

Buttock augmentation with fat transfer, also known as the “Brazilian butt lift” in honor of the country in which it was developed, is performed with the patient under general anesthesia.
