Buttocks Lipo

Sculpt a more pleasing derriere

Are your jeans getting tighter and tighter? Is your rear rounder than you would like? Having a heavy backside is more common today than ever. But with lipo of the buttocks, you can have a slim, trim rear end in under two hours-and the results are permanent.

lipo of the buttocks can help smooth your body's contours. It acts to lift, firm, and reduce the buttocks. Buttocks lipo can help keep your curves in check, make it easier for you to buy clothes, boost your self confidence, and give you a younger-looking backside. Forget all those diets that don't work: tumescent liposuction of the buttocks is the easiest way to get the contours of your dreams.

Having a lipo surgeon eliminate your buttocks fat with liposculpture is much easier and safer than undergoing traditional liposuction. The process is simple:

• You are given a local anesthetic to numb the area.
• Your liposculpture surgeon uses a laser to gently melt the fat directly under the skin and to encourage skin tightening.
• Your surgeon then places small incisions to begin the suctioning process with a cannula, which is only about 3mm wide.
• Your lipo surgeon uses slow, gentle movements to remove the fat, meaning limited pain, fewer bruises, and a rapid recovery for you.

The entire tumescent liposculpture procedure usually lasts only an hour or two and acts to reduce fat and tighten skin. lipo patients need only light sedation, and most patients are back at work in one or two days.

• lipo is permanent. Once fat cells are removed from the body, they do not grow back.
• lipo produces noticeable results, leaving you with a sculpted, contoured, and slimmer backside.

FAQs

Why choose buttocks lipo? Is it for men or women?

Both men and women benefit from buttocks liposuction. lipo reduces fatty deposits, naturally tapering the buttocks and restoring proportion to the body. Since moderate amounts of fat can be removed, patients see a more defined rear-end. With lipo, recovery is quick and post-op bruising and pain is minimal. Results are permanent, so you never have to worry about having a plump rump again.

What is buttocks lipo like?

Liposculpture is usually performed in an office or clinic setting under local anesthesia. Patients remain awake and alert during the entire procedure. First, the surgeon numbs the skin and places small incisions just under the buttocks. Using gentle suction, excess fat is removed with a small vibrating cannula, or straw-like instrument. The cannula is only 3mm-about the size of a cooked spaghetti noodle-and leaves no unsightly scars. The procedure lasts for about one hour, and patients walk out of the office with their new, sculpted bodies.

Am I a good candidate for buttocks lipo?

lipo of the buttocks is a safe procedure for most men and women who have a high accumulation of fatty deposits on the butt. If you can pinch more than a quarter inch of fat from your posterior, buttocks laser liposuction should improve your backside by eliminating that fat. Anyone who has had a gastric bypass, or has lost over 100 pounds might need to take extra precautions and might want to consider further skin-tightening procedures for loose skin. A consultation with the lipo doctor can help address these issues.

Can buttocks lipo be combined with other procedures?

Yes. Many patients choose to have their buttocks liposculpture procedure performed in conjunction with other procedures, especially thigh Lipo. When buttocks and hip lipo are combined, the laser surgeon can sculpt and slim the entire backside. Of course, not all patients need lipo on their hips or other areas, so your surgeon can target the buttocks alone and perform this procedure by itself if you prefer.

Will I have any scars or sagging skin after buttocks lipo?

Tumescent lipo of the buttocks leaves only a couple of small incision sites, each only about 3mm wide. The puncture sites naturally close within a day or two, fading into the natural color of the surrounding skin. Scarring does not usually occur.

lipo is designed to promote skin tightening and to restore collagen. Anyone under the age of 60 with good skin tone will generally not have sagging skin and will instead see an improvement in skin tone and firmness. lipo is specifically designed to promote skin tightening as the fat is removed. However, older patients or those who have experienced dramatic weight loss may still experience sagging or lax skin.

What are the post-op procedures for buttocks lipo?

Patients generally experience only mild discomfort after the procedure. You can walk immediately afterward, enjoy light to medium activities, and return to work in a day or two. Some, but not all, patients experience mild bruising. A compression garment similar to bike shorts is worn for three days and nights and then at least eight hours a day for two weeks.

Some patients may experience swelling after the procedure. Good results are visible within three to four weeks; final results are seen within six months. While it does take a while for the swelling to subside, there is minimal to no pain. With lipo of the buttocks, there are no stitches, and the tiny puncture wounds naturally close within two days. The most common discomfort patients experience is mild soreness, similar to the muscle ache that accompanies strenuous exercise.
