What you need to know about buttock implants.

The quest for the perfect buttock has long been a desire of both men and women. Until recently there was no permanent predictable technique to produce a fuller and more shapely gluteal region. Fat injections are not permanent and not practical in thin patients. Silicone injections to the buttock can have disastrous consequences including nodularity and deformity. Buttock augmentation with a solid silicone implant is a predictable and permanent way to create a fuller and more pleasing buttock.

The best candidates for buttock augmentation with an implant are patients who lack projection of the gluteal region and have good skin elasticity without significant sagging of the buttocks. In addition, there should be enough skin, fat and muscle to provide good coverage of the implant to allow for proper healing and long term acceptance by the body.

The implant is inserted through a single incision in the crease between the buttocks. A pocket is made either within the muscle or in the muscle lining known as the fascia depending on the needs of the patient. The solid implants which have a soft feel similar to muscle are then inserted. A drain is often placed around the implant to collect any fluid that may accumulate. Vigorous exercise and exertion should be avoided for at least 6 weeks. Some of the complications that may occur include bleeding, infection and fluid retention around the implant requiring drainage or implant removal in some cases. Liposuction of the lower back can be combined with buttock augmentation to produce the perfect hip to waist ratio.

The result is a buttock that is rounder, more projecting and more attractive. POW!
