For many people, the buttocks contribute to a full, flattering figure. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to achieve the profile you’d like with just squats. That’s because the buttocks can be affected by factors like weight loss or genetics. Buttock enhancement, whether surgical or non-surgical, is a great way to achieve your goals and feel like your backside leaves a great impression, too.

What is Buttock Enhancement?

Buttock enhancement uses different surgical and non-surgical treatment options to improve different aspects of the buttocks, like size, shape, and appearance. Many patients pursue buttock enhancement because they feel like their figure would be improved with a larger and more prominent butt. Although exercise can improve the buttocks, many patients hope to address other aspects that can’t be addressed through exercise. In many cases, buttock enhancement is beneficial as a combination of procedures because it requires only one recovery period where you will need to avoid sitting directly on your butt.

Candidates for Buttock Enhancement

Patients who benefit most from buttock enhancement are those who are at or near their ideal weight and are looking for ways to improve their butt. It’s important to be in good overall health and at a stable weight. Dr. DiFrancesco will discuss the specific candidacy for each technique during your consultation.

Buttock Enhancement Combinations

Butt augmentation and enhancement can be achieved with combinations of surgical and non-surgical options. One option may be better for you than the other, and you may even benefit from a combination of both types.

Surgical Buttock Enhancement

The Brazilian butt lift is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery options available for buttock augmentation. This fat grafting and buttock lift surgery requires a liposuction procedure to collect fat from another fatty area before it’s injected into the buttocks to produce volume. Many patients prefer this buttock lift option because liposuction can help contour the surrounding areas by removing excess fat and moving it to your buttocks, creating the appearance of more projection and volume. The Brazilian butt lift surgical procedure also comes with long-term results since the injected fat is your own fatty tissue.

Non-Surgical Buttock Enhancement

Butt enhancement can also be achieved through non-surgical options like Sculptra®, which is an injectable option designed to add volume and stimulate collagen production at the same time. Although not as permanent as Brazilian butt lifts, the Sculptra butt lift can produce results for up to a few years.

Buttock Enhancement Recovery

Your recovery period will depend on which options you choose, but Dr. DiFrancesco will ensure you understand your specific instructions. As a general rule, buttock enhancement requires that you avoid sitting for long periods, meaning it can be beneficial to undergo a combination procedure at one time.

Frequently Asked Questions about Buttock Enhancement

What is it called when you take fat from your stomach to buttocks?

It is called a buttock enhancement with fat transfer, and is performed by using liposuction to collect the fat which is then cleaned, processed, and reinjected into the buttocks.

What is used for buttock injections?

For non-surgical buttocks injections, we use Sculptra to add volume. Surgical buttocks enhancements include fat that was taken from another part of your body, such as your arms or thighs,

Are buttock injections permanent?

Fat transfer to the buttock is permanent. If you don’t have enough of your own fat, we can use or supplement with Sculptra. Sculptra has an off label use to enhance your buttock. It typically lasts around 2 years.

How much does buttocks enhancement cost?

Sculptra injections run on average around $6,000. Your cost may vary depending on how many injections you need. The cost of a surgical BBL can differ depending the on the extent of the procedure, but on average, they are typically around $5,000-$10,000

What is the recovery process like with surgical buttock enhancement?

During the first few days after your surgical buttock enhancement, you will likely notice swelling, bruising, and tenderness. You’ll need to wear a compression garment to help aid in the healing process, and you will not be able to sit or lay on your buttocks for at least a few weeks. Patients can usually return to light activities after 1-2 weeks but should avoid strenuous exercise for 6-8 weeks.
