Buttock augmentation can be performed using either your own fat or shaped silicone implants. Although fat tends to be rather unpredictable in terms of longevity, I prefer its more natural look and feel. In addition, unused fat can be frozen and used to touch-up and reshape your buttocks at a later date.

The two main ways to plump the buttocks are:

1) Get buttock implants
2) Get fat injections

I have performed both types of procedures and recommend buttock implants for the patient with a very flat, volume deficient buttock area who is not opposed to having a silicone implant.

Fat injections are a nice way to plump out the tush in people wishing for a mild to moderate volume increase and who have elastic skin without a lot of ptosis, or sagging. The downside of fat injections is the unpredictability of the longevity of the fat—some studies show fat lasts anywhere from 3-5 months to several years in the human body.
