How Much Do Buttock Injections Cost?
Doctor Answers 11
Thank you for your question. There are two common ways to enhance a buttock, but each requires surgery. The most common method is through the use of fat-grafting, popularized as the "Brazilian Butt Lift", or BBL. This procedure involves performing liposuction of diet and exercise resistant areas of the body (typically the abdomen, waist, hips, and back), followed by processing and purifying the fat before injecting the fat back into the glutes. This fat can be used to recontour the buttock region, while adding volume and firmness. The second method of butt augmentation is through the use of buttock implants, a better option for those with otherwise little body fat.
Injections of any other material is at best, unsafe, and at worst, can be dangerous to your health. Please do not entertain this option.
Cost of surgery depends on a number of factors, including the type of procedure performed, the anticipated amount of time in the OR based on the amount of fat that will need to be harvested, the area of the country that the procedure is performed, and the facility where the procedure is performed. Price can range from 5K to 20K, with the average in the 10-15K dollar range. Though price is always an important factor, be sure to research your ASPS board certified plastic surgeon for their experience, knowledge, and professionalism. This ensures that you can anticipate the results you are going after. Hope that this helps.

Patients often inquire about buttock injections thinking that it is a non-surgical procedure and, therefore, should be inexpensive. It is very important to realize that the only safe technique involves the use of fat transplantation. This is a surgical procedure under general anesthesia. This is a very safe technique which lends itself to achieving very satisafactory results and in the processs also improves the contour of the donor sites. The average surgical fee using fat transplantation is $10,000-12,000. You must stay away from having Hydrogel and/or silicone inkections. These can cause all sorts of local and health problems, including possible death. In addition to this these injections are illegal. Don't be taken in by the cheaper price of these other injections. These are really very dangerous.
The price for a fat transfer depends on several factors and
varies from one practice to another. There
is a big difference if you are injecting 40cc in the face or 6cc in the lips
compared to 1600cc of fat for a buttock augmentation. Brazilian butt lift is so popular because it
enables your plastic surgeon to transform your entire shape. Liposuction is performed over several areas
depending on the individual patient needs, but typically of the flanks,
abdomen, back and thighs which obviously increase the cost compared fat
grafting of the lips. Many practices
have some type of assistance to help with financing the procedures such as care
credit.
With that said I would tell you that when it comes to your body, I would not choose your surgeon by who is the cheapest. It is important to have several consultations with board certified plastic surgeons. Also make sure that your surgery is being performed in an accredited surgery center or hospital.
Unfortunately here in Miami many patients try to save money by having their procedure performed by non-plastic surgeons and at facilities that have not been accredited and often have problems.

Many patients inquire about buttock injection in our Atlanta office. The only safe buttock injection material is with your own fat. Fat injection for buttock enhancement is also known as Brazilian buttock lift. This procedure can be done either in a hospital or office by a board certified Plastic Surgeon. Injecting anything else into your buttock can be dangerous and may pose a risk to your life. A simple web search of butt injection may show you all the complications from injecting various substances by non physicians and often in hotels, homes, garages, etc. None of these substances are approved by the FDA for buttock injection. The average cost of fat injection to the buttock is about $3500 plus the cost of liposuction.

The only injections to the buttock that is SAFE and effective is by FAT.
Any other ILLEGAL type of injections such as commercial silicone (FROM THE HARDWARE STORE) or Hydrogell is illegally done by non doctors and carries significant potential problems
Injecting anything other than Fat carries far too much risk. We have all heard multiple national stories were patients died from complications. It is not something recommended by our society of the American Board of plastic surgeons. 2 Thumbs down.

The only practical injection material for buttock augmentation is your own fat. The injections used on the face are not enough to improve the buttocks

Non surgical Injections are illegal and not fda approved. The only option is injecting your own fat which involves surgery. Please read more information on Brazilian Butt Lift.

The only injections to the buttock that are safe are transferring you own fat after liposuction of fat from other parts of your body. Other types of injections, such as silicone, hydrogel or any other substance is not FDA approved and most likely done by non-doctors many times in garages or hotel rooms. A quick internet search of non-fat injections will show devastating complications, some even resulting in death.
However, based on the photos you provided you do not appear to have enough fat to give you a dramatic result, therefore making you a possible candidate for a gluteal silicone implant alone or in combination with a small volume of fat transfer. Your best bet is to make an appointment to see a plastic surgeon, many offer free consults, so that they can examine you and give you all of the safe options that are available to contour your gluteal region and provide you a price quote.
