I'm looking to have my buttocks reduced in size. I had my hips reduced through Smart Lipo but that doctor is reluctant to do the butt because of possible sagging. I only want the butt done nothing else to keep the cost as low as possible. This has caused me back problems and low self esteem. Pls give me a price quote. I live in NJ, female 33yrs
Answer: Buttock reduction options The best option and most economical is for you to simply lose the weight with diet and exercise. I realize that that sounds obvious and also sounds like a lot of work. But it really is your best option. Liposuction alone will likely result in the skin laxity that your SmartLipo doctor has alluded to and gluteal lifting procedures are going to be expensive. They also have a relatively high complication rate. You will be much happier if you can do most of the work by yourself.

Answer: Liposuction of the buttocks proper can cause sagging. I agree with the opinion of the surgeon who stated that sagging might be the byproduct of liposuction. You might find that the buttock will look smaller by suctioning the peripheral areas avoiding direct suction to the buttock itself.

Answer: How can I reduce my buttocks in size? Buttock liposuction may be reasonable.Try to research this to find the surgeon who consistently produces the results you would expect. Look at reviews on this site and see who gets the surgery right every time. Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Butt reduction Dear Zeepan, Thanks for submitting your pictures. I would like to recommend to you a different approach than the other answers. From your pictures it appears that you have skin and muscles laxity of your abdomen. A tummy tuck will do the following for you : 1. Flatten your stomach. 2. change your posture which will help you with your back problem. 3. Very good chance that you will lose significant amount of weight due to the muscle tightening which will reduce your hunger and food consumption. 4. The weight loss will be generalized and so it will reduce the size of your butt too. 5. Your self esteem should improve due to your improved looks and sense of well being. The tummy tuck will probably cost you more , but it is worth it because of the above mentioned reasons while the liposuction might give you sub optimal results that will reduce your self esteem. You are investing in yourself, so invest wisely. Always, consult with board certified plastic surgeons and check their before and after pictures to make sure that you like the results. Best of luck, Dr Widder
