With weigh gain and aging, skin and other supporting structures lose their elasticity and resistance to gravity. Therefore there is inferior displacement of the whole gluteal mass.

In this respect, what kind of approach sculpturing operations would make the gluteal region slimmer and younger looking?

The answer is lifting the gluteal mass and giving volume and smooth curvature to the gluteal region by buttock implants.

“ ART IS NOT INVENTING SOMETHING NEW, BUT THE TRANSFORMATION OF SEMETHING ALREADY EXISTS. “

Patients often, undergo the procedure :
- To increase buttocks volume caused by poorly developed muscles
- To improve the whole curve of the hips and buttock
- To get a mild lifting effect of the buttocks

The buttocks shape changes with age. Over the time the buttocks are wide, flat, some droopiness in the lower buttock area due to excess skin, and even masculine appearance.

Gluteal augmentation with the intramuscular approach produces very good aesthetic results and, when properly performed, has a low incidence of complications. Using the intramuscular tissue plane ensures that implants are naturally positioned.

Buttocks augmentation by implants allows flat or poorly developed buttocks to be enhanced. Make the buttocks area round and curvy.

The scar placement is one of the most important factors.  Through a midline incision in the upper buttocks crease, a pocket is carefully developed in the gluteus maximus muscle, then the buttock implant is slipped into this carefully pocket.

HOW LARGE AN IMPLANT CAN BE USED ?

The decision of the shape and size of the implants is made depending on each person’s individual desires and on their general body build.

Choosing the correct buttock implant size to be used in buttocks augmentation is a very important aspect to be considered. Not taking properly into account patient’s body guidelines may result into dramatic mistakes.

The incision is 2-3 inches, and is hidden in the crease between the buttocks. The implants are placed "between" the muscle (gluteos maximus) in a space made EXACTLY to fit the implants so that they can't move out the position.

Understandably, most patients are concerned about how these scars will look after surgery. This scar is mostly well hidden in the crease with only a small part just above the ‘crack’ area. While these scars will be red for up to six months after surgery, eventual fading of them will make their appearance as a fine white vertical line and small white dots. Most patients consider these scars as negligible and a very small trade-off to make for the benefits of a larger and shapelier buttocks appearance.
