Do Butt Lifts Look Real?

I'm considering a butt lift and would like to know if it feels and more importantly looks real?

Reality of Buttock Augmentation with Fat Transfer

Using your body's fat from locations that hide your curves and carefully shaping the buttocks with this same fat allows for two things to happen: First the natural shapes and curves are of your body are enhanced with the removal of the fat that does not belong in that location. Second, the buttock shape is augmentated and enhanced by adding this fat to the buttocks itself. It is important that your surgeon understands buttock aesthetics and doesn't just add a bunch of fat to your buttocks... more

Buttock augmentation or lifts with natural results

Buttock augmentation has a very natural look and feel if performed with fat transfer techniques. Although a buttock lift or augmentation can be done by using a hard silicone implant, using a patient's own fat yields the best, most natural result. This involves first performing liposuction on unwanted areas of a patient's body (such as the abdomen or lower back) and then transferring the fat by way of a syringe into the deep tissue/muscle of the buttock area. A certain percentage of the fat... more

The Brazilian Butt Lift looks and feels 100% real

No question about it. Fat grafting to the buttocks looks, feels and moves like a natural buttocks.....because it is all natural. Implants tend to feel firm and in many circumstances, look fake. The Brazilian Butt Lift is the most natural way to augment your buttocks. Look at some photos if you would like to decide for yourself.

Thanks for the question Eddie - I would strongly encourage you to speak to a board certified plastic surgeon who performs autologous fat transfer buttock lifts (the Brazilian Butt Lift). In my practice, we have had wonderful results with this surgery. The benefit of using your own fat is you avoid the risks of implants (inferior feel, implant shifting, infection, scar tissue). In addition you get liposuction of other typically problematic areas. The technique does require some skill so be... more

Butt lifts are real

Your question is an interesting one. The feel and look of a butt lift is somewhat dependent on the technique used to perform the procedure. Also, the question that I would ask you is, are you referring to how it feels to you as the patient or to an intimate that may be "feeling" your buttocks. Certainly the use of your own tissues (i.e. fat) probably offers a more realistic feel to the buttocks than buttock implants, as far as your intimate is concerned. Implants may cause a... more

Brazilian butt lift provides very natural results

I prefer augmenting the buttocks using fat injections (the brazilian butt lift) and only recommend butt implants if you are very tiny with no fat in your stomach or flank area. The fat transfer method has a lower risk of infection compared to the butt implant procedure. And not only do you get a more shapely buttock, but the area liposuctioned is now much leaner, giving your profile a more sensuous look. I prefer the brazilian butt lift, as the combination of liposuction and fat... more

Brazilian butt lift...

The “Brazilian Butt Lift,” or gluteal lift/augmentation is a procedure designed to improve the shape and appearance of the gluteal region. This surgery uses a combination of liposuction and fat grafting (i.e. fat injections with the patient’s own fat) to produce a fuller, firmer, more youthful-appearing buttocks. This procedure is safer and the results are more natural compared to an implant.

Butt Lift

The answer to this question is somewhat complicated. It depends whether you wnats an actual butt lift or buttock auugmentation. You can have a butt lift to elevate the buttock area to remove skin laxity. Alternatively you cna augment you butt with implants or you own fat. The latter is called a brazilian butt lift. It augments you butt with your own fat and that procedures a lifted look.

Butt Lift Options

The Brazilian Butt Lift is a procedure that can yield natural looking results. As you receive the fat from your own body it is also safe. Butt implants tend to yield less natural looking results and your body frequently reacts negatively to the implants.

Butt augmentation with natural results

There are many great options today for butt augmentation. One of the most popular is a Brazilian Butt lift. In this procedure, the patient receives liposuction to the abdomen hips waist back thighs. This fact is then cleaned and processed in transplanted to the butt region. This will create a natural and curvy butt for the patient. The benefit of this procedure is that all the tissue is your own and there is no foreign material or chance of rejection. When planning such a surgery it is... more

Yes, they do look real.

Buttock lifts look real . whether they are with fat , an implant , or combination of these 2 or even if the silhouette threads lift the buttocks, they look real. the easiest is the silhouette lift which is done under local anesthesia and has no down time.
