Enhance the Size and Shape of Your Buttocks with Buttock Augmentation

In today's world, appearance means more than it ever has and many men and women of all ages are dissatisfied with the size, shape and contour of their buttocks. Underprojected, flat and/or sagging buttocks do not fit the ideal self-image of these people. Body-image is an important part of feeling good, desirable and self-confident. For many, a buttock augmentation surgical procedure can dramatically affect the quest for a beautiful body.

Buttock implants, also known as gluteal augmentation, gluteal implants or gluteoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to add fullness and projection to the underprojected or flat buttock area. This procedure involves inserting a soft, high grade, solid silicone implant into the muscular space of the buttock area to increase the size and enhance the shape of the buttock. To the touch, it has the feeling and consistency of a flexed muscle. Unlike breast augmentation, after this procedure is properly completed and healed, there is no reason to require additional surgery. These implants can be round or oval and come in a variety of sizes. A consultation and physical exam with a plastic or cosmetic surgeon is needed to determine the appropriate size and shape for individuals.

The definition and contour of the buttocks is due to the size and shape of the surrounding tissues. Excess and localized fat deposits of the hips, waist, lower back and upper thighs may obscure the definition and shapely contour of the buttocks. In many cases, liposculpture of any combination of the hips, waist, low back and upper thighs is frequently done at the same time as buttock implants to enhance the shape and contour of the buttocks.

For those who have excess sagging of the skin or folds of the buttocks, a buttock lift from above, or a local skin excision from the crease below, may be desirable. This sort of procedure is most commonly reserved for more extreme cases with the understanding that more extensive scarring will often result during the healing process. Generally, however, these scars are fairly easily hidden within the bikini, bathing suit or undergarment lines. Like other scars, these could potentially be removed with additional plastic or cosmetic surgical procedures.

An ideal candidate for buttock implants (gluteoplasty) is a man or woman dissatisfied with the underprojection or flat appearance of their buttocks who is free of any complicating pre-existing medical conditions including heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, skin/connective tissue disorders, etc.
