Hydrogel is not FDA approved for buttock augmentation. I do not recommend anything to be injected into the buttock for augmentation except your own fat. Fat transfers to the buttock can give very natural, safe results. You can also use a gluteal implant for buttock augmentation however, they tend to have more complications than fat transfers. Please consult with one or more board certified plastic surgeons prior to undergoing a buttock augmentation. Best wishes, Dr. Bruno
Allow me to answer your question another way.The use of Hydrogel is Illegal in the USA. That means, that the FDA has not been convinced that its use is either safe and effective. ANY health care worker who administers Hydrogel risks losing his/her license and be the subject of Federal prosecution.Also - of interests to the millions of lawyers out there, since the use of Hydrogel is NOT considered to be within the standard of care. Any complication regardless of severity, resulting from its use, automatically opens that health care worker to a lawsuit.So - since most health care workers are FULLY aware of this, ask yourself, what kind of "doctor" would be willing to hurt me, risk loss of his/her license, risk Federal prosecution and expensive lawsuits?? - a really stupid callous one, in my opinion. Do you really want someone like this "treating" you?Hope this answered your question.
Hydrogel is not approved by the FDA for injection in the U.S., therefore it should not be considered safe. There are proven techniques such as the Brazilian Buttock Augmentation which I routinely perform that are safe and very effective. This technique combines liposculpture to harvest (remove fat from unwanted areas) and re-injecting it into the buttocks to improve shape and firmness. Dr. Sean Simon - check the Brazilian Buttock Lift section of before and afters for examples
Implants will not help to cover the prominent bone over your sacrum. If the growth is coming from your coccyx, I would resect it. If its excess growth from your sacrum this can be burred down. Fat transfer or fillers can be used to fill this area but it can make this area of your lower back...
Be cautious in what you allow to be injected into your buttocks. Many products are illegal and frankly unsafe for this purpose. I can tell you from my own experience taking care of many patients who have been injected with these substances that the risks include deformities, chronic pain, s...
Lyari, I will assume that you are referring to a product known as Artefill, which is a combination of PMMA microspheres and bovine collagen, not the PMMA that plastic surgeons have had experience with in the skull and facial bone reconstruction arena. Artefill is approved in the US by the FDA...
Asymmetry or depressions in the gluteal region can be a stubborn problem. One option that you may consider is the fat grafting to this area. In this procedure we remove fat from one part of your body clean and process the fat so we only have healthy fat cells and then strategically inject the...
If you ever wanted to redefine and improve the shape and appearance of your backside Sculptra butt injections are a simple and effective way to achieve that. Sculptra unlike other fillers increases volume as it induces collagen production. So the solution itself is not the one that produces the...
This is a very common question that we receive here in Miami. There are many people that are offering to inject artificial materials into the butt for the purpose of making the butt larger and more shapely. At this time, none of these materials have been approved for this purpose by the Food and...
