The butt is one of the most noticeable features when it comes to having a curvaceous, attractive figure. Many individuals, however, are unhappy with the size and shape of their butts. Even with rigorous exercise, the butt can sag, lose shape, or simply be ill-proportioned with the rest of the body. At the Center for Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery, our experienced surgeons Drs. Scott Loessin and Jeffrey DeMercurio help patients achieve their ideal figures through butt implants and butt lift surgery. These popular procedures can be combined with our other body contouring surgeries to positively transform a patient’s appearance.
For patients whose skin has lost elasticity due to aging or weight fluctuation, a butt lift is a welcomed option to restore the shape and size of the butt. Like other cosmetic surgeries such as the thigh lift, the butt lift seeks to remove excess skin and fat, and tighten the remaining skin. Because of their close proximity, a butt lift may be combined with a thigh lift to drastically improve the appearance of the lower body. During butt lift surgery, Dr. Loessin or DeMercurio will make incisions along the buttock before removing extra fat and skin. They will then reposition the remaining tissue before closing the incisions with sutures.
Butt implants are quickly becoming one of the most popular cosmetic procedures available. These implants provide volume and shape to the buttock, creating an ideal figure for the patient. Often, butt implants are placed in conjunction with a butt lift procedure in order to achieve optimal results. In this procedure, an incision is made where the upper thigh and lower fold of the buttock meet. A pocket is then made inside the gluteus maximus where a silicone implant is put in place. Using their well-honed aesthetic sensibilities, Drs. Loessin and DeMercurio pay close attention to symmetry and proportionality of the implants. Once the implants are placed, the incisions are closed and surgery is complete. Following butt implant surgery, patients can return to light activity in about two weeks, with full recovery in about six weeks.
Although a butt lift does not offer any health-related benefits, it does offer numerous aesthetic benefits. First, a butt lift can eliminate loose, sagging skin. This makes it an ideal procedure for patients whose skin has lost elasticity due to aging, as well as those who have gone through extreme weight fluctuation. A butt lift can also reduce the appearance of cellulite, significantly improving the texture of the skin. In addition, a butt lift and butt implants can enhance a patient’s figure, adding shape and volume to the butt, and contributing to their overall appearance. Patients who undergo butt lift surgery may also experience an increase in self-confidence. A more proportioned, youthful figure allows them to feel positive about their looks. Finally, a butt lift and butt implants are beneficial because they are a longer-lasting solution than the alternative, injectable buttocks enhancements that are now available.
A butt lift is a cosmetic procedure than can have a considerable impact on a patient’s silhouette, helping boost their appearance and body confidence. If you are interested in learning more about butt lift surgery, schedule a consultation with Dr. Loessin or Dr. DeMercurio today.
