I'm Interested in Bottom Implants.where Are the Scars Placed??

Butt augmentation is one of the fastest growing aesthetic
procedures in the United States the last few years. Initially butt augmentation was mostly
performed by fat transfer (Brazilian Butt Lift), however this was not an option
for many women that were too thin for a fat transfer procedure. Butt implant surgeries have become a great
alternative to a Brazilian Butt lift for patient that are too thin or want more
augmentation than is possible with fat transfer alone.

The butt augmentation with implants is performed with an
incision in the gluteal crease (the cleft between your two butt cheeks). There are two ways that it is commonly
performed, one is with a single midline incision and the second is with two
curved incisions along each buttock.
Both incisions are well hidden in the crease and covered in underwear or
a bikini.

I personally like to use the two incisions for several
reasons. The first is that the incisions
can be placed in a manor that they accentuate the shape of the buttock-giving
patients the amazing curvature to their butt.
The incision is also hidden right at the curvature of each buttock
(similar to an IMF incision for a breast augmentation).

Please be sure to discuss your butt implant surgery with
your board certified plastic surgeon that performs a high volume of butt
augmentation surgeries.

Hello, the scars are placed in the cleft between the buttocks. Well hidden below the bikini line and on the inner aspect of the butt cheeks. There may be on scar or two depending on what technique the surgeon does. If a single scar technique is performed it is usually in the midline. Thanks.

The incision for a buttock augmentation with implants is placed in the intergluteal cleft, also know as the gluteal crease. This is the space between both buttocks. The scar is small, about 5-7 cm, and easily hidden by bikini or underwear. The implants result in a fuller buttock with a small lift. I often combine liposuction and fat injections to enhance the contour and gluteal shape. 

I prefer to make one small incision right in the crease of the buttock.  Some surgeons use two incisions one each side however I feel that causes unnecessary scaring. 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.

The most common location for the incision used to place gluteal implants is in the crease in the center, between the two buttocks.

On occasion, when I am also doing a lower body lift type of procedure, I am already making an incision across the top of the buttocks, and in that case, I can put the gluteal implants in through the same incision, so there is no need for an extra incision between the buttocks.

Be aware that there is another option if you are having the lower body lift procedure: it may be possible to preserve some of the skin and fat being removed and use that for the gluteal augmentation instead of implants.
