Butt Sags Over the Crease, is a Brazillian Butt Lift an Option?

Question

Is a Brazilian butt lift just a minor cosmetic improvement for younger people. It seems that the older a person gets the more likely they will have a sagging butt and the Brazilian is not an ideal option then?

Wilberto Cortes, MD · Answer

It all depends on the degree of sagginess. If you have a significant amount of sagginess over the lower butt fold, then, you will not be a good candidate for surgery and an excisional butt lift will be more indicated. Now, if your sagginess is mild, then a Brazilian butt lift will improve the overall shape of you buttocks, including the lower butt fold. It is like a breast augmentation; if you have mild to moderate sagginess, an implant will lift the breasts without doing a standard breast lift.

	
	Increasing the volume of the breasts and/or the buttocks will lift these areas, thus offering a more natural and youthful location. This is one of the reasons why the Brazilian butt lift is called a Brazilian butt lift; it will increase the volume and lift your buttocks to some extent.

Unfortunately gravity is a real issue and the bigger the buttock is now, the more weight there will be pulling down.  This will also depend on your sun exposure, weight gain/loss, physical support, and other factors.  No decision regarding surgery is without risk.

Hi there-

	While I am a big believer in the wounderful outcomes possible through a well-done Brazilian Butt Lift, it doesn't sound like it would be the best option for you...

	If your buttocks are sagging, you would be better off with a more traditional buttock lift, with or without grafting of fat for increased firmness and volume. This would better improve the sagging AND give you the fulness you may want.

Hello dear!!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well. 
It depends on the patient's degree of sagginess. Unfortunately, without pictures, it is very difficult to give you a proper answer. l recommend you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon to talk about your goals and anything you need to know.
Good luck :)
