Can My Lower Sagging Buttock Roll Be Removed?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Looking to have my lower sagging skin removed and a lift for a high placed, round, full, perky butt. Thank you.

A:You are referring to your banana roll lower buttock sag which can only be treated by a lower buttock excisional lift…of which you are a good candidate and for a problem in which there is no other effective solution. The objective of that surgery is to get rid of the lower buttock overhang of which the tradeoff is a scar line at the new infragluteal crease. I would not necessarily call a ‘highly placed round full perky butt’ an expected outcome of the surgery. Getting rid of the overhang and tucking the bottom of the buttocks in does help create a shorter and rounder appearance to the buttock but that is because it shortens the elongated appearance of the buttock due to the overhang.
