There are many different kinds of body contouring procedures that experts recommend, among the most popular of which is fat transfer. This widely talked about option has been in the spotlight of many men and women wanting to enhance their natural curves but have reservations about implants. Fat transfers to the buttocks are particularly popular as more people desire fuller and more attractive butts. The treatment is preferred by and are highly recommended to patients who want reduced downtime and lessen the risks of complications and side effects.

Fat transfer to the buttocks typically begins by harvesting fat cells from a certain area of the body, commonly the thighs, the back, the abdomen, or the chest. Fat is then processed and injected into the buttocks until the desired/proper enhancement is met/achieved. Transfers can take as much as 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the kind and level of augmentation needed.

Upon getting the treatment, your buttocks may feel tender for about a week, but it is possible to return to your normal activities and routines within just a few days of the procedure. Don't be alarmed if you find your buttocks to be slightly larger than anticipated during the first few days after treatment. Swelling is a common effect of the transfer procedure, but once it goes down, you will appreciate your newly shaped buttocks more. For the best results, additional fat transfers are often prescribed for those who want plumper butts.

There are many benefits to fat transfer procedures to the buttocks, the most notable of which is the fact that it is your natural fat cells that are being injected back into your body. This means fewer complications and risks of side effects than augmentation using implants. Some patients also note that fat transfers feel much more natural than silicone implants. Other advantages of fat transfer include:

  • Less invasive procedure that can be performed under local anesthesia, with the patient totally awake and experiencing very minimal discomfort.
  • Small incisions that are only big enough to accept the suction wand for removing fat. These leave no open incisions or scars like you would see in implants.
  • Fat transfer doesn't only add volume to the buttocks, but improves its shape as well, especially when fat is harvested from areas around your rear end.
  • Virtually pain free procedure that will allow you to return to your normal activities after just two days from the treatment.
