Buttock Lift / Augmentation in Beverly Hills

What is Buttock Lift/Augmentation?

Buttock lift is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the buttocks, which results in a smoother and more toned appearance. It is often performed after significant weight loss or as part of a body contouring procedure.

Buttock augmentation, on the other hand, involves increasing the size and shape of the buttocks using implants, fat grafting, or a combination of both. Fat grafting, also known as Brazilian butt lift, involves harvesting fat from other areas of the body using liposuction and injecting it into the buttocks to create a fuller, more lifted appearance.

Procedure

In general, a buttock lift procedure can take anywhere from two to four hours, while buttock augmentation procedures may take slightly longer.

Recovery

After a buttock lift, patients will typically need to take one to two weeks off work and avoid strenuous activity for at least 4 to 6 weeks.

Anesthesia

In general, these procedures may be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation.

Buttock Augmentation Recovery

Patients who have undergone a Buttock Augmentation can typically return to work and social activities within 2-3 weeks following their surgery. Patients will need to avoid directly sitting down for at least 3 weeks to allow the buttock area to heal properly. A cushion should continue to be used to sit to allow for optimal comfort. Sports and exercise can typically be resumed after the first month of recovery.
