Alternative to Buttock Implants?

If you don't have enough of your own fat for gluteal augmentation, and you aren't willing to consider implants, you don't have many other options. Fillers are used in some countries, but I wouldn't advise using them for gluteal augmentation--the amounts needed are cost-prohibitive and they're not permanent. Silicone injections are permanent, but are...
