Butt injections for a petite woman...

Whether to have a Brazilian Butt Lift or Buttock implants is a very common question for people seeking more curves. Both procedures are FDA approved and safe but have completely different approaches. The implant is inserted under general anesthesia and is done as a one time procedures. A Brazilian butt lift involves liposuction then multiple injections done under general anesthesia. This procedure feels a bit more natural and is done in a gradual fashion so you build up to the perfect... more

Buttock Injections for Petite person

If you have fatty tissue elsewhere in your body that you would like to get rid of - liposuction and fat injections is a great option for buttock augmentation. If you are very petite without excess fat, you will likely require silicone implants. Both are great options for increasing volume in this area! Good luck! K.

Butt Injections or Brazilian Buttlift

Please stay away from buttock injections. Only fat should be injected into your buttocks. I see 2 or 3 women a week who have had the injections and suffer pain, swelling, or infection.

Buttock implants are an option if you really have no fat stores whatsover. ... more

Buttock Augmentation Options

Allow me to share with you some information that you may not hear elsewhere. There are only two proven safe and relatively effective methods for Buttock Augmentation and Hip Augmentation: 1) Autologous Fat Transfer (using your own fat, transferring from one area of the body to the other) and 2) Buttock/Hip Implants (semi-solid silicone rubber implants that cannot rupture &/or leak). Both are very good options so what it comes down to, like any surgery, is proper patient selection. Indeed... more

Injection may not be an option if you have no available fat to harvest.

I would stay away from injection of other substances, such as silicone, because of the potention for serious complications and even death from embolism. If you are slim but have some fat to harvest, usually even a small volume fat injection will make a significant difference. If there is really nothing, buttock implants are an option and work well. They need to be placed deep, in the muscle or under the muscle fascia at least. You need to find a surgeon experienced with these techniques... more
