Buttock Augmentation or Implants

Butt injections, implants, or Reconstruction

Butt augmentation (or butt implants) is a general term that describes a surgical procedure to enhance the appearance of one’s buttocks. Whether the desired effect is increased firmness, a different shape, or changed size, butt augmentation surgery can accomplish this. This kind of surgery itself is generally simple, fast, and uncomplicated. Most plastic surgery practices do it as day surgery. It is unlikely to be covered by standard insurance, though, unless it is being done to correct a birth defect or injury, but even then you should consult with your insurance provider first.

There are two basic common types of buttock augmentation:
Implant surgery where an actual synthetic implant is added that changes the shape and outline of the butt area

And

Injections of substances such as silicone and fat that also change the fullness or shape.

Both of these procedures can also smooth areas of cellulite. However, one or the other may be more fitting for your unique needs and desired outcome.

The most famous type of butt-modifying injections are Brazilian Butt Lifts, also called fat injections, fat transfer, or fat grafting. In these cosmetic procedures, fat is removed from one of more areas, and redeposited in others to change the shape of the butt.

Butt implant surgery involves the surgical insertion of artificial implants into the buttocks with the end result being a change in size, shape, and proportion. The butt implants can give definition where there once was none or just improve the appearance of the area overall.

People who go through butt augmentation surgery enhance not only their appearance, but also their self-esteem and self-confidence. However, as with any surgery, you should consider many factors, such as your overall health going in, the long-term consequences, and the costs. It is vital that you discuss the potential of butt augmentation surgery with your primary physician, a qualified plastic surgeon, and your family.
