The buttock lift is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat (adipose tissue) to improve and enhance the silhouette of your buttocks.
If you are a good candidate, a buttock augmentation may also be performed with a buttock lift by using buttock implants or lipofilling (injections of your own fat).
In our youth, the skin tends to remain firm and supple. With age, several factors may affect the quality of your skin such as: pregnancy, significant change in weight, sun exposure, and disease.
All these factors may contribute to the sagging and deformation of your buttocks.
Buttock lift cosmetic surgery can help improve the shape and firmness of your buttocks.
During a buttocks lift, Dr. Cordoba will remove and lift the excess skin. Dr. Cordoba will then reposition and suture the skin in its new position.
The buttocks lift leaves permanent and visible scars in the upper part of your buttocks.
The best candidate(s) for a butt lift are individuals who are:
- Healthy
- Have realistic expectations about what this surgery can do
- Emotionally well balanced
- With excess skin in the buttocks
A buttock lift surgery can be performed in a single procedure or in conjunction with other cosmetic procedures such as buttock augmentation with implants or lipofilling (injection of own fat), liposuction of the surrounding areas or a thigh lift.
Alternative Treatments
Not undergoing a buttocks lift is an option.
Liposuction may be a better option if you have good skin elasticity.
Another option would be to add more volume to the buttocks (buttock augmentation) with silicone buttock implants or injections of own fat (lipofilling).
