Hi and great question. I believe that fat transfer gives the best result for a butt augmentation. I believe that is regardless of whether you “burn” fat fast or slow. The main question is: is enough fat present to perform the entire butt augmentation. If the answer is no, then I think a combination fat transfer with butt implants is a great second option. The implants provide the volume and projection to the butt; and the fat can be used to sculpt the frame (curvy or heart shaped) and “soften” the edges of the implant. I hope that helps. Best of luck!
Butt implantswith fat transfer is the best of both worlds! It is an option and very common in my practice. It allows the augmentation of the implant andthe shaping of the liposuction. The fatthat is harvested can also be used to enhance the hips or other areas that yourplastic surgeon may want to enhance after the placement of the implant. At times the implant can lack fullnesslaterally and in the hips. It can also add a buffer to the implant,softening the feel and appearance. Please discussyou butt augmentation with a board certified plastic surgeon that performs ahigh volume of these procedures.
It is very difficult to determine the best recommendation for you without an examination by a board certified plastic surgeon. Not just any board certified plastic surgeon, but one with many years of frequently performing butt augmentation surgery including different approaches, techniques and implant choices. Liposuction of your lower back and fat transfer is also helpful as an adjunct to implants but often times if sufficient fat is available implants are not needed. Using “want to be” photos however are useful if simply provided to the surgeon.
Dear MZ CLEA, All surgical procedures have associated risks. Buttocks augmentation can be performed with fat grafting or using implants ( of which there are several types). With Imlants- there are the surgical risks and the implant risks. If you are thin then the complication rate is higher with the implants.There is not really a good implant for contouring the hips and thighs- so fat grafting is the only choice,With Warm Regards,Trevor M Born MD
Yes I love this combo as it gives excellent results! Be sure to choose a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in this procedure and has high success rate with this procedure. If you choose your surgeon wisely you will have a wonderful, long lasting result.
