Liposculpture

Buttock liposculpture is a surgical procedure that removes excess subcutaneous fat through liposuction; this fat is then processed and reinjected into the areas to be enhanced, achieving a more harmonious, rounded shape of the buttocks and increasing mainly their front-to-back projection. Transferring fat cells is not simply filling in volume, but an autologous tissue transplant. A certain percentage of the volume is reduced over time, and follow-up procedures of the same type may be needed to achieve the desired effect. These are considered normal subsequent stages and are not regarded as an insufficient initial correction. Buttock liposculpture can be combined with other types of aesthetic surgery.

As a stand-alone procedure, buttock liposculpture often cannot compensate for a small buttock volume, and if that is the case, it can be combined with an operation to increase volume using silicone implants.

Buttock liposculpture can only be performed surgically. This is a highly individual procedure, and you should have it done for yourself, not to fulfil someone else's expectations. It is a good option for you if you are in good physical health and have a positive outlook together with realistic goals for improving your appearance.

There is no single "right" age for buttock liposculpture. Ultimately, the timing depends on when the patient is psychologically and aesthetically ready for the procedure and has reached the age of 18.
