This patient was unhappy with the size of her buttocks and also with fatty tissue on her back and posterior flanks.  She underwent liposuction of the posterior flanks and back with transfer to her buttocks.

A year after trusting Dr. Katzen to reverse past decisions, this patient (35) returned for a BBL with vaser hi-def liposuction.

35-44 year old woman treated with Butt Lift

Our patient is a 64-year-old White male, 185lbs at surgery, who lived with multiple foreign body buttock injections for more than 20 years. He was told they were silicone, and over time, he developed worsening discomfort and a visible lump at the top of the buttock, a sign that the injected material and surrounding tissue were no longer stable. Dr. Timothy Katzen performed a posterior butt lift with open silicone injection removal under general anesthesia to remove infected, painful tissue and restore a healthier contour. Through an open approach, Dr. Katzen exposed the affected area, identified pockets of inflamed and infected tissue, and removed the foreign material in a controlled, step-by-step manner to protect the skin and preserve the blood supply. In this case, 1.5lb of infected tissue was removed, which can reduce pressure, tightness, drainage, and the source of pain. After careful cleansing, he repositioned and tightened the deeper tissues, trimmed excess stretched skin, and closed the incision in layers so tension was shared and the scar could heal more predictably. Drains and compression are often used short-term to manage fluid while swelling improves. Photos were taken 2 months after surgery, and even as healing continues, our patients results are already remarkable, with a smoother upper buttock contour and relief of most of his pain as inflammation settles. Our patient also reported greater comfort when sitting and during day-to-day activities.

Posterior Butt Lift with Open Silicone Removal for Pain Relief & Smooth Contour

Our patient is a 39-year-old Hispanic female who came to Dr. Timothy Katzen with worsening pain, burning, itching, discoloration, and migration after having unregulated foreign body injections performed. Because injected materials can spread and keep irritating tissue, Dr. Katzen recommended a posterior butt lift with an open silicone injection removal technique to remove the affected tissue directly and restore a smoother contour. Under general anesthesia, he made a planned incision to access the affected layers, separated healthy tissue from inflamed pockets, and removed silicone-laden tissue in a controlled, step-by-step manner. In total, 7 lb of injected tissue was excised, thereby reducing pressure and chronic discomfort. After cleansing the area and controlling bleeding, Dr. Katzen tightened the deeper support layers, removed excess loose skin, and lifted the posterior tissues so that the transition between the upper buttock and lower back appeared more even. The incision was closed in layers for strength, and compression with close follow-up helped manage swelling and fluid during recovery. These photos were taken 1 month after surgery, and her results are already remarkable, with improved shape and a healthier appearing buttock region. The open approach lets Dr. Katzen see and remove migrated material directly. She was advised to walk gently, limit sitting pressure as directed, and care for the scar as swelling improves.

Posterior Butt Lift and Open Silicone Removal After Illegal Silicone Injections

Our patient is a 39-year-old Hispanic female who weighed 150 lbs at the time of surgery, came to Dr. Timothy Katzen for relief from foreign body buttock injections that had migrated and caused persistent pain and discomfort. Dr. Katzen recommended an open silicone injection removal with a posterior butt lift so that the foreign material could be removed under direct vision and the area could be reconstructed to achieve a smoother, healthier contour. Under general anesthesia, he made a planned posterior incision, separated healthier tissue from inflamed silicone-laden pockets, and removed the involved tissue in a controlled, step-by-step fashion to reduce pressure and irritation. After cleansing and careful control of bleeding, he tightened the deeper support layers and trimmed excess loose skin. He lifted the posterior tissues to improve the transition from the lower back into the buttock region. The incision was closed in layers to support strength and reduce tension. These photos were taken 3.5 years after surgery, showing remarkable long-term results and a more comfortable daily life. Our patient shared that she is happy to be relieved from most of her pain. Direct visualization facilitates more precise targeting of migrated material, and aftercare commonly includes compression, walking, and close follow-up. Dr. Katzen focuses on smooth contours by removing tissue evenly and protecting the skin, so the result looks natural in clothing and from multiple angles as healing matures.

Migrated Silicone Removal with Posterior Butt Lift for Smoother Contour

Our patient is a 36-year-old Hispanic female who came to Dr. Timothy Katzen with pain and discomfort after foreign body injections were placed in the buttocks by another surgeon. She also believed the product had migrated to the left leg, a phenomenon that can occur when injected material spreads through tissue planes and forms inflamed, firm pockets that feel tender and tight. Dr. Katzen recommended an open silicone injection removal with a posterior butt lift to directly remove the affected tissue and rebuild a smoother, safer contour. Under general anesthesia, he made a carefully planned posterior incision to access the involved layers, then identified the injected material and surrounding inflamed tissue that was contributing to symptoms. Using an open approach allows direct visualization rather than blind suction, which is critical when the material is irregular, scarred, or has migrated. Dr. Katzen removed silicone-laden and reactive tissue in a controlled, step-by-step manner, focusing on symptom relief while preserving healthy tissue and the skins blood supply. After removal, he performed the posterior butt lift by tightening deeper support layers and removing loose skin to improve shape and smooth the transition from the lower back into the buttocks. The incision was closed in multiple layers to reduce tension and promote scar healing. Post-operative compression with close follow-up helped manage swelling and fluid accumulation as tissues settled.

Migrated Silicone Injection Removal with Posterior Butt Lift Reconstruction

Name: Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)Purpose: Purpose: While the goal of a standard butt lift is generally to eliminate loose skin and decrease size, a BBL fills in sunken areas to create pleasing additional volume. The procedure can provide dramatic, transformative results for patients who long for a more youthful, perky, or voluptuous backside. It can also improve asymmetry and similar cosmetic flaws.How it works: A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a unique procedure, different from more traditional forms of buttocks augmentation. This innovative technique provides beautiful, natural-looking results without using silicone implants or any type of foreign substance.Results: Total recovery time varies with the individual and the extent of your unique procedure. To maintain your results, it is recommended that you keep a stable weight, since weight gain or loss will naturally change the size of transplanted fat cells.
