Cosmetic Procedures - Buttocks Lift - Before Surgery

An examination is needed to determine the size and shape of the buttocks and which procedure (lift vs. implant vs fat injections) would be most effective in improving its shape of the buttocks.It is important that the patient have a clear understanding of the location and size of the resultant scar if a buttock lift is chosen. In buttock implants, measurements are taken to determine the size and style of buttock implant to be used. When choosing an implant, the risk of infection and shifting of the implant position after surgery must be accepted. With fat injections to the buttocks, how much fat will survive is unpredictable and one muct accept that overcorrection is initially needed or multiple fat injections sessions may be required. In some cases, combination(s)of implants, lifts, or fat injections may be used to achieve the best buttock shape and size.
