Depending upon the degree of "sagging", an appropriately sized buttock implant alone can often provide significant volume needed as well as lift for a deflated buttock... Oftenjust by inflating or re-inflating the buttock, the lower buttock will perk upand reduce or even eliminate any loose skin there. Occasionally, a lowerbuttock tuck (by removing the loose skin) may be necessary as well. Thetwo accepted options for augmenting ("inflating") the buttock are fattransfer (aka Brazilian butt lift) and buttock implants. Unfortunately because much of the fat melts away after fat transfer, most of mypatients do not have enough fat to begin with and thus are not good candidates. At least once per week I see a new patient in consultation that failed fattransfer to the buttock and remains frustrated over their buttockappearance. Buttock implants at least provide a reliable longterm and predictable outcome. I strongly recommend consulting with aboard certified plastic surgeon that performs both procedures and notjust the Brazilian buttock lift so that s/he can provide youwith an unbiased recommendation for surgery. Glad o help.
I perform the Brazilian buttlift and the conventional buttock lift. I also perform buttock implants as well. I would find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs all of these to achieve your goals.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

No photos but will answer generally. Fat transfer may help and should be considered to minimize the wrinkles. In addition a true buttocks surgical lift should be considered. This means an incision above the buttocks with skin and tissue actually cut out surgically. The scar is about 180 degrees around you but should heal nicely. This is a fairly rigorous surgery but may be the only answer. It will definitely give you a lift. A combination of the buttocks lift and fat transfer from abdomen should be considered. Please submit photos for a more exact answer. See a surgeon certified by the ABPS who is also FACS. Ask more question of RealSelf. Thanks and My Best, Dr C
