Butt Augmentation
A cosmetic surgery that has grown in demand over recent years. Aesthetic concerns relating to the buttocks such as sagging skin and a flat shape can be due to genetics, the aging process and weight loss. For patients who wish to achieve a lifted and full shape for their buttocks, Oakville Plastic Surgery and Advanced Skincare offers a surgical treatment, often referred to as the Brazilian Butt Lift, whereby fat grafting techniques are employed to create an enhanced size and rounded shape for small or flat buttocks.

How It Works
In the case whereby a patient possesses few stores of excess adipose tissue, the surgical procedure may include the placement of silicone gluteal implants underneath or on top of the gluteus maximus muscle and the excision and redraping of muscle and skin tissue. In cases where excess fat is available for harvest and enhancement is the main objective, a less invasive surgical technique known as lipoinjection may be applied. In this case, liposuction is performed on areas of the body where excess fat can be harvested such as the stomach and thighs. This fat is then injected into the gluteal region through a fine-gauge cannula inserted through a small incision. In circumstances where both shape correction and enhancement are required, the aforementioned techniques can be combined for an ideal functional and aesthetic outcome.
Recovery
Immediately post surgery, wearing compression garments and immobilizing the corrected tissue is advised to contain swelling and support healing. The recovery from a butt augmentation procedure will vary based on the techniques employed to achieve each patient’s desired outcome; however, generally a period of 10-14 days of convalescence can be expected. The final butt augmentation results will be realized after 6-12 months as the tissues heal and settle into their corrected shape and placement.
