Buttock Lift

A Buttock Lift is a cosmetic plastic surgery designed to tighten the skin of the buttock area. The procedure can be performed alone or in combination with other operations such as a thigh lift and abdominoplasty. As we age our buttock begins to droop and change shape, and as techniques have progressed newer ways have been found to lift certain body parts that in the past we would let age gracefully.

 

The Buttock Lift surgery involves the removal of excess skin from the buttock area. Liposuction may sometimes be included to further improve body contour. The procedure involves cutting the skin high up on the side of the thigh and buttocks, removing excess fat and trimming away the excess skin. The scars are strategically placed at the waistline or somewhat below depending on personal preference so that you can wear most swim wear.

 

The Buttock Lift usually takes around 2 hours to complete and normally involves an overnight stay at the hospital. Buttock lift results can be quite long lasting - often up to 10 years or more - but are subject to change as a result of weight gain and aging.

 

There is usually some postoperative pain that can be managed with medications. Abdominal binders are generally worn for six weeks to help prevent fluid buildup and provide support during the healing process. Swelling may last for up to three months, and the full cosmetic results are visible within a year.
