Gluteal Fat Grafting

Today a liposculpture is recommend to improve body contour and enhance curves, the Gluteal Remodeling surgery plays a fundamental role in the beauty and balance of the posterior contour.

In most patients, it is possible to see a filling deficiency (depressions) in some areas of the gluteus, some irregularities or even a disproportion of volume.

We use the fat collected during the liposuction and selected, through decantation, the best fat cells to insert in other areas which need the filling, this is what we call Lipografting.

We consider this technique (the transplantation of living tissue – the fat) the best option for gluteal remodeling whenever possible. As it is the patient’s body tissue it there is no risk of rejection. Under ideal conditions, an absorption of approximately 30% of the grafted fat is expected, the 70% integrated into the organism will compose the new area where it was placed becoming part of the anatomy of that region for good.

Our main goal is to enhance the beauty of the gluteus, leaving them more projected and well filled, avoiding excess of volumes and disproportion to the body contour. It is important that while wearing a tight-fitting outfit, the gluteus is on evidence and prominence in the waist transition but without showing that they were operated or enlarged!

For those who do not have an adequate amount of fat to undergo gluteal fat grafting or need extra filling to emphasize the gluteus anatomy, the inclusion of Silicone Prosthesis is indicated.

Gluteal Prosthesis

Gluteoplasty augmentation, is the plastic surgery of the gluteus that consists of the inclusion of a silicone implant in the gluteal region, it brings an increase and also an improvement in the contour and consistency of the gluteus, which become harder and more projected. It is indicated for men and women who want to increase the gluteal region.

Gluteoplasty is a surgery that lasts about 2 hours and the patient is hospitalized for 24 hours until hospital discharge. In the first 7 days, mild to moderate pain is common, with the use of analgesics and anti-inflammatories it is relieved. It is allowed to sit on the prosthesis in the immediate postoperative period.

The return to social activities is within 21 days and physical activities 60 days.

The result of the scar from gluteoplasty is really discreet and almost imperceptible. It is positioned in the inter-gluteal groove, that is, between the two-gluteus side, in an area hidden by the bikini and disguised by the natural groove of the gluteus. The scar size is as small as possible, just enough for the prosthesis to pass through, about 5 cm.

Nowadays, the technique used in the gluteoplasty surgery brings a much more natural result comparing to the ones done few years ago. In the past, it was used to place the implant under the skin and this would let it marked and very artificial. Now, this technique has changed and we use the implant inside the gluteus muscle, eliminating the problem of marks and displacement of the prosthesis when the patient contracts the gluteus. The result is a more beautiful, firm and very natural. 

Another important strategy is the association of the fat grafting technique (fat grafting in the gluteus) it helps to reach the best and most natural results.
