When performing Gluteal Fat Injections the cosmetic surgeon uses liposuction to remove fat cells from a donor site (often the thighs, abdomen, back, or hips) and injects those cells into the buttocks.
Because the procedure involves simply moving fat from another area of the patient's body, sometimes it may improve the contouring of the areas where the fat was removed.
The procedure usually takes about one and a half to two hours, and is performed under general anesthesia. Because the donor cells come from the patient's own body, Buttock Injection carries no risk of the body rejecting the implanted cells.
The healing process for Buttock Injection is less severe than with implants.
Buttock injection is a less invasive procedure, preferred by most patients who wish to resculpt their physique to enhanced but still natural looking proportions.
Buttock Injection benefits:
*A more natural appearance, as the newly sculpted buttocks use fat from the patient's own body.
*Smaller incision area resulting in less scarring
*Shorter healing time.
*No chance of rejection.
*Procedure includes additional body sculpting due to liposuction from areas with excessive fat stores.
While Buttock Injection is generally lower risk and results in more consistently natural looking results, it is not an option in patients who do not have suffcient fat deposits elsewhere on their bodies to be injected into the buttocks. |
