Some individuals naturally have less fullness in this area, while others experience volume loss over time due to weight changes or aging. This procedure can improve body proportions by adding definition and enhancing natural curves.

What Is Buttock Augmentation?
Buttock augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances the size and shape of the buttocks using either implants or fat transfer. The most commonly performed method is fat transfer, also known as a Brazilian buttock lift, which uses a patient’s own fat to create a natural increase in volume.
During a fat transfer procedure, fat is removed from areas such as the abdomen or thighs through liposuction, processed, and then carefully injected into the buttocks. This allows for contouring of both the donor area and the buttocks, resulting in a more sculpted overall appearance.
Surgical Options
Although buttock implants can effectively and permanently achieve buttock augmentation, they can be associated with complications such as infection. For this reason, fat transfers with injected fat from Liposuction, also known as the Brazilian Buttock Lift, are often preferable. In this procedure, Dr. Breitbart removes fat via Liposuction from one area of the body such as the abdomen or thighs, purifies the fat, and then injects the fat into the buttocks through a small incision. This procedure can achieve a natural feel without the associated complications of implants. Most patients prefer using their own fatty tissue to increase the volume and contour of their buttocks. An added benefit is the improvement in contour of the areas treated with Liposuction.
The Benefits of Buttock Augmentation
Buttock augmentation can improve body proportions and enhance overall contour.
Common benefits include:
- Increased volume and fullness in the buttocks
- Improved body balance and proportions
- Natural-looking results with fat transfer techniques
- Enhanced contour in areas treated with liposuction
- Long-lasting results with proper maintenance
Procedure, Recovery, Result
Performed either under local anesthesia with intravenous sedation, or general anesthesia, buttock augmentation surgery takes one to two hours. Small incisions with even distribution of fat cells ensure that the buttocks are smooth.
Many patients choose buttock augmentation because they are not able to achieve the results that they desire through diet and exercise. Many of Dr. Breitbart’s patients experience greater confidence and better fitting clothes through an improved shape with buttock augmentation.
