Buttock augmentation

You will need 300 to 400 cc of collagen per each butt cheek.  At the current proce of several hundred dollars, this is a costly approach.  Also, the collagen will be gone in 3 to 6 momnths after your expensive investment.  If you do not have much fat, I would really consider a buttock implant highly.

No approved fillers for buttock enhancement

Available fillers for wrinkles come in one cc syringes costing from $500-800. You will need 300-500 cc for each buttock. You do the math. The only options available today for buttock enhancement are: 1. Buttock Enhancement by Fat Transfer 2. Buttock enhancement by Implants 3. buttock enhancement by dermis Fat Graft

Brazilian Butt Lift: Fat injection is the material of choice (not fillers or collagen)

SEE VIDEO FOR BRAZILIAN BUTT LIFT RESULTS: Collagen is impractical due to the quantity of material required and the temporary result. Your most reasonable options are fat grafting (Brazilian Butt Lift), Fat flaps with lower body lift, or implants. see video

That would be one expensive butt!

Collagen is about $500 per cc, and, we typically inject over 500 cc's per buttock cheek. That would be $500,000 for your entire buttocks!!! Even if there were a cost effective way to inject collagen into your buttocks, it would still not give you as good of a result as the Brazilian Buttocks Lift. This is because part of what makes the Brazilian so dramatic is the fact that you get Liposuction at the same time.

Collagen Butt Augmentation does not exist

Collagen Buttock Augmentation does NOT exist for 2 reasons: 1. It is not approved by the FDA and, more importantly, 2. It would be ASTRONOMICALLY expensive. Since a fat transfer buttock augmentation or Brazilian Butt lift requires 400 to 900 cc of fat PER CHEEK and the cost of collagen is OVER 400 dollars per cc. It would cost well over 160 to 360 thousand dollars for a "collagen buttock augmentation."

Collagen butt augmentation prohibitively expensive

Hi there- The only safe way to increase buttock volume and projection without and implant is to perform a Brazilian Butt Lift, in which fat is liposuctioned from areas where it is not wanted, and injected into the buttocks. The volume necessary is large, and so trying to substitute a filler material, including collagen, would be very, very expensive (restylane costs about $475 per 1 cc syringe, and we usually inject at least 500-600 cc per buttock cheek... you'd be looking at about $50,000, and more

Collagen in buttocks augmentation

Collagen is injected 1cc at a time. With a brazilian Butt lift , a lot of fat is injected into your buttocks. There is no filler other than fat that can be used here.
