ABOUT BUTT LIFT

A butt lift is a surgical procedure to remove loose and sagging skin from the buttocks and create firmer, more lifted buttocks. Many patients who have a lot of sagging skin around the buttocks as a result of a significant amount of weight loss or aging, or patients with a flat butt, choose to have a butt lift to gain a firmer and defined look.

A butt lift can improve the appearance of the buttocks in patients with cellulite, loose skin, or a flabby backside.

Recommended for

  • Patients who want firmer buttocks
  • Patients with excess skin following weight loss

TIME REQUIREMENTS

  • Number of days in hospital: 1 – 4 days.
  • Average length of stay abroad: 2 – 3 weeks.

Patients are usually advised not to sit down for around 2 weeks, which makes it difficult to travel. The surgeon must clear the patient to fly, and offer precautions against the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Recently, women who want a better image on their hips prefer butt lift.

BEFORE BUTT LIFT ABROAD

Before undergoing butt lift surgery, the patient should discuss the surgery and their goals with the surgeon in the initial consultation. The patient should disclose all information on any medications that they are taking and the surgeon will evaluate the general health of the patient.

HOW IS IT PERFORMED

In traditional butt lift surgery, the surgeon makes incisions above the buttocks and around the hips. Excess skin and fat is removed and the buttock skin is pulled tight and layer by layer, it is sutured into place with dissolvable sutures. After the surgery, the wound is dressed and the patient may need to wear a compression garment to hold the skin in place and to reduce any swelling.

In a Brazilian butt lift procedure, fat deposits are taken from different areas of the body such as the stomach, hips or thighs. The fat is removed with liposuction and then injected into the butt to create a firmer and bigger look. There is usually less scarring with a Brazilian butt lift, as the fat is injected into the butt cheeks.

Anesthesia

Usually general anesthetic, in rare cases local anesthetic with sedation.

Procedure duration

The Butt Lift takes 1 to 3 hours.

The surgeon reshapes the nose into the desired shape or size.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER BUTT LIFT

Post procedure care

After the procedure, patients may be given a compression garment to wear, and it can be difficult to sit down. It can take several months to fully recover and see the effects of butt lift surgery.

Possible discomfort

Some swelling and soreness is common, and patients will need to follow instructions on how to sleep and for how long to avoid sitting down.
