The standard of beauty is ever-changing. During the 90’s, everything was about heroine-chic and being thin. Now, more and more women are embracing their curves—and buttocks are becoming the new breasts. Across the pond, the US has seen a 16% increase in buttock augmentation procedures using fat transfer in 2013.

The process of fat transfer to buttocks for achieving a beautiful body involves minimally-invasive liposuction that is performed under a local anaesthetic. Fats around your lower back and your saddlebags will be transferred to your buttocks to achieve a fuller shape. People who are good candidates for buttock augmentation include those who have an irregular body frame and would like a balanced look or those who have a square or flat butt. This procedure can also be ideal for those who have experienced weight loss or ageing and are left with flat, sagging, or loose buttocks.

A successful fat transfer can give your buttocks an uplifted, rounder, and firmer shape. It can also give you a more proportional look and help you look better in swimwear and clothes.

Some patients opt for implants for their buttocks, but the problem with implants is that they tend to slip. With fat transfer, you can achieve a more natural look. What’s more, it is safer to use fats (especially your own) when enhancing other parts of the body.

Not everyone is suitable for fat transfer to the buttocks. If you do not have enough fat in your body, there will be nothing to transfer to your posterior. It is important to set up a consultation with a surgeon first to find out if this procedure is best for you.

The procedure starts with surgeon extracting fat via liposuction from the patient’s body. The fat is then refined and injected into the buttocks. Most patients are able to go home after the procedure without having to stay the night in a hospital or clinic. To achieve the best outcome for your buttocks, you must follow the aftercare procedure provided by the doctor.

There’s barely any downtime to this type of procedure, but you should anticipate side effects such as swelling and bruising. Patients are also advised not to partake in rigorous activities or going to the gym in a week or two. Depending on your work and your condition, you may need to take a couple of days off. You might also need to undergo massages like manual lymphatic drainage to aid in your recovery.
