Buttock augmentation can be of 2 types. One is a buttock lift another being buttock enlargement. It usually involves reducing the area around the buttocks using liposuction and injecting the buttocks with fat injections to enlarge them. The fat is processed and purified after removing it from the patient before it is injected back. Buttock implants are stronger than breast implants and made of elastomer that can’t leak.
Implants are placed into a small incision made above the sitting area. The inter-muscular augmentation, augmented only the upper third portion of the buttocks, where as implants can augment the entire area.
