Buttocks Reshaping and Augmentation

Hi! I'm Dr. John Farella; a board certified plastic surgeon. The decision to undergo Buttocks Reshaping and Augmentation is an exciting one. It is my belief, that an educated patient allows you to determine your personal goals, and enables you to make an informed decision. I have developed this website as a patient information source. Hopefully, this site will prepare you for your consultation.













Buttocks reshaping, sometimes called buttocks augmentation, gluteoplasty, or Brazilian butt lift, involves lifting the buttocks or enlarging the buttocks with implants or fat injections. Buttocks reshaping and enlargement is a popular request and maybe more highly desired among particular ethnic groups.

Buttocks Reshaping and AugmentationAutologous fat transfer uses the patient's own body fat to make the buttocks larger. The procedure is limited by the amount of fat that can be transferred from other parts of the body and by the amount of fat that survives the transfer procedure.

Buttocks implants are solid silicone implants placed under the gluteal muscles. They may be the only option for patients who do not have enough body fat to use for augmentation. Gluteal implants tend to have high complication rate. At the time of this writing, few surgeons perform this procedure.

Liposuction may be used to contour the hips, outer thigh, and lower back to give the buttocks better shape. It also can reduce the size of buttocks. A plastic surgeon may be able to create an infragluteal buttocks crease or to use surgical excision to lift the buttocks or improve backs of thighs in a way that enhances the appearance of the buttocks. The patient must understand that surgical excision does leave permanent scars.
