The Tunisian buttock augmentation or buttock augmentation, is used to improve the contour, size and / or shape of the buttocks. This is done through the use of buttock implants, fat grafting (lipofilling) or sometimes a combination of both.
Buttock implants are silicone-filled devices that are surgically placed deep into the tissues of the buttocks. Buttock augmentation using fat grafting involves the transfer of fat from an area of the body into the buttock tissues. This technique is sometimes referred to as a Brazilian buttock lift.
Buttock augmentation When is a buttock augmentation considered?
- If your buttocks are too small for your body and you want a more balanced look
- If the shape of your buttock area (buttocks) is too flat or square and you want more curves and a more youthful appearance
- If weight loss or the aging process has left your buttocks loose, droopy or flat
- If clothes and swimwear do not fit your figure properly
- If you would gain the self-esteem or self-confidence from such a procedure
Buttock prosthesis: buttock augmentation with implants
Firming or enhancing the buttocks with implants is becoming increasingly popular. In particular, the reshaping of the buttocks with prostheses is the most commonly used method.
Implants are suitable for treating flat buttocks, especially for patients with limited adipose tissue. Buttock implants are not as effective in treating sagging buttocks that may occur after significant weight loss.
With this procedure, a soft silicone implant is placed through a hidden incision inside the natural crease of the buttocks, or another incision site may be used.
Your plastic surgeon will provide you with more details about these incision sites during your consultation.
The Tunisian buttock prosthesis is positioned in a pocket under the large buttock muscle (gluteus maximus) and above the pelvic bone.
The incisions are closed with sutures, drains are inserted and a compression garment is worn after surgery.
We can achieve the best results with round or oval implants that are usually inserted below the gluteal muscle.
The procedure of lipofilling the buttocks in Tunisia consists in taking the fat from an area of the body and using it to improve and reshape the buttocks.
- Liposuction with suction tubes (cannulas) is used to remove fatty tissue from areas of your body with excess fat, such as the abdomen, hips, back or thighs.
- The fat is then treated for fat transfer.
- The fat is reinjected using syringes connected to cannulas.
- Usually three to five small incisions are needed to inject the fat, but these incision sites are easily hidden by clothing.
- Fat is grafted in layers at several levels, with the cannula moving back and forth to ensure that a smooth, linear deposit of fat tissue is left to reshape and augment the buttock area.
- Liposuction incisions are closed with sutures.
- Drains are inserted and a compression garment is worn after surgery.
- Increase the fullness, roundness and projection of your buttocks
- Improve the balance of your silhouette
- Improve your self-image and self-confidence
In addition to buttock augmentation procedures, a buttock lift can be accomplished through the surgical removal of soft tissue.
