* required
Buttock lift is done as an outpatient surgery
at hospital outpatient surgery center with a general
anesthetic administered by an MD anesthesiologist.
Normally, all the skin/fat between the cut, which
is just below the belt line and from one hip to
the other, is removed. Also, if you want "redistribution"
and reshaping a la a Brazilian butt, I then use
some of the tissue/fat to accomplish this. This
is very similar to a “tummy” tuck but
in the back. It reshapes and elevates the buttock
area.
Other more limited cuts or operations may be done,
depending on your situation and the improvement
you wish. Also, other procedures, like liposuction,
can usually be combined.
Usually, the person can do light activity within
several days and heavy activity only after two/three
weeks. A pressure/supportive dressing is worn for
about two weeks but the patient can usually remove
it in several days and shower.
I usually do not place drains. Black and blueness
as well as swelling do occur with most of it resolving
within one month. Bad scars,raised, red and spread,
may result in 20% of the patients as well as separation
of the incision, numbness, asymmetry and all the
other complications such as bleeding and infection.
