Can a gluteal fold be created?

Peter A. Aldea, MD answers: Can a gluteal fold be created?

My butt has a nice shape and size but the problem is that I barely have a gluteal crease. They are almost invisible. I know that a short crease has a youthful appearance but I just wanted to deepen or lenghten these folds so that they are a little more visible.

I would prefer a permanent solution but if that's not available, could injections such as Botox be of any help?

Can a gluteal fold be created? Yes, it can be with superficial liposuction.

The infragluteal fold needs to be approached carefully, by suctioning just under the skin. This will produce an indentation but not make it too deep - if the fold is too deep the buttocks collpase downward folding over the fold.

Helpful?
