Butt augmentation is a transformative procedure designed to enhance the contour, size, and shape of the buttocks by improving the tonicity of the underlying tissues. This remarkable enhancement can be achieved through various techniques:
Buttock Implants: These are silicone-based implants meticulously placed deep within the tissues.
Fat Grafting: Also known as the Brazilian Butt Lift, this method involves transferring body fat from one part of the body to the buttocks.
Butt Lift: This procedure is often performed concurrently with tummy tucks or lower body lift surgeries.
Our butt lift procedure, offered at Kayakriti, is performed as part of tummy tuck or lower body lift surgeries for both men and women. Its primary goals are to:
Improve the shape and tonicity of the underlying tissue supporting the skin and fat of the buttocks.
Remove soft tissue responsible for sagging, which can be used for butt augmentation if required.
Utilize liposuction of the buttocks and thigh, if necessary, to contour the buttock and thigh region.
During your consultation for butt augmentation, it’s crucial to engage in a comprehensive discussion with your surgeon. This should include:
Expressing your expectations and understanding the surgeon’s goals.
Disclosing your complete medical history, including any existing allergies or conditions.
Sharing information about any adverse habits.
At Kayakriti, we prioritize your well-being during consultation:
Evaluating your general health status, including pre-existing conditions or risk factors.
Conducting detailed body measurements and capturing photographs.
Discussing the available butt augmentation/lift options.
Exploring likely outcomes and potential risks or complications.
Determining the correct procedure based on various factors, including butt size and shape, available fat for liposuction, expectations, skin quality, and elasticity.
Preparation for butt augmentation surgery involves several key steps:
Ensure you are in good physical health.
If you smoke, quit smoking at least two weeks prior to the surgery.
Complete the required tests as prescribed by Dr. Amit Agarwal.
Avoid anti-inflammatory drugs and herbal supplements, as they can increase the risk of bleeding.
Share the results of all pre-surgical workup investigations with your surgeon and anesthetist. Surgery will be scheduled once you are declared fit for the procedure.
Measurements for compression garments should be taken for post-surgical use.
Admission to the center will occur on the same day as the procedure.
Sign a written consent form that explains the details of the surgery upon admission.
Meet with the anesthetist for a Pre-Anesthetic check-up before the surgery.
Abstain from food and drink for a minimum of 5-6 hours prior to the planned procedure.
This cosmetic procedure is performed under general anesthesia.
Incisions are typically made in the gluteal creases or between the buttocks to minimize scarring.
Silicone implants, specially designed for the buttocks, are strategically placed either within or above the gluteal muscle.
The specific surgical approach may vary based on factors such as implant type, correction needs, body type, and surgeon’s recommendations.
Incisions are meticulously closed with sutures, skin adhesive, or surgical tape.
The results of buttock augmentation are immediately visible and continue to improve as healing progresses.
B) Fat Grafting/Brazilian Butt Lift:
This cosmetic procedure is performed under general anesthesia.
Liposuction is utilized through small, inconspicuous incisions. Initially, diluted local anesthesia is administered to reduce bleeding and trauma. A thin cannula is then inserted through these incisions to loosen excess fat.
The dislodged fat is gently suctioned out using a surgical vacuum or syringe. Generally, up to three times the amount of fat to be injected into the buttocks is removed.
Fat purification and processing follow. The purified fat is injected into the buttocks through small, precise injections.
While the initial results of buttock augmentation are immediately visible, the final outcome becomes apparent after 6 months to a year, as the fat fully integrates. Results are generally natural-looking, although the projection of the buttocks may decrease slightly over time.
The transferred fat can adapt to weight fluctuations.
C) Butt Lift:
This surgical procedure requires extensive incisions, the length, and pattern of which depend on the amount and location of excess skin to be removed.
Incisions are made in areas where they can be concealed by clothing.
Typically performed under general anesthesia, a common gluteal lift technique involves an incision just below the waistline, often combined with an abdominoplasty incision for comprehensive body contouring. Liposuction may be utilized to enhance contouring.
If determined by the surgeon, an auto-augmentation may involve leaving some tissue strategically in place beneath the skin to achieve desired results.
Another technique positions an incision just below the buttocks, in the crease between the buttocks and the upper thigh. This approach removes excess skin, defining the crease and smoothing the skin on the upper thigh’s back.
Deep sutures support the skin, and absorbable sutures close the incision.
Immediate results are visible, but it may take 3-6 months for tissues to fully settle, and incision lines may take up to a year to mature.
Following butt augmentation surgery, the recovery process unfolds as follows:
Dressings and a compression garment are applied to the surgical area to minimize swelling and provide support.
Patients typically begin walking on the same or the following day after surgery and are usually discharged on the second day after drain removal.
Drains may be placed under the skin to manage excess blood or fluid, which may require removal during follow-up visits.
Sutures placed on inner folds and inside the skin are dissolvable and do not need to be removed.
Expected side effects include swelling and bruising, which generally subside within 3-4 weeks.
Pain is managed with prescribed medications.
Soreness may persist for a few weeks.
Avoid prolonged sitting for approximately two weeks to protect the newly augmented area from pressure.
Sleeping on your face or side is recommended. When sitting, use a pillow or cushion to raise the buttocks slightly and reduce pressure on the fat graft.
Massages may be advised.
Exercise can typically resume after six to eight weeks.
Walking is encouraged, with the first post-surgery walk occurring within 6 hours or the next day.
Wearing a compression garment for 4-6 months, 24 hours a day, is essential.
Return to work varies but can typically happen within 2-3 weeks.
Normal lifestyle activities can be resumed after three weeks post-surgery.
Complications and outcomes vary depending on individual health. Factors such as poor circulation, a history of blood clots, diabetes, or underlying cardiac, pulmonary, or liver conditions can affect the surgical outcome.
Common risks and complications associated with butt augmentation may include:
Rare complications related to general anesthesia.
Seroma formation or fluid accumulation, which may last a week.
Bleeding or hematoma formation, potentially requiring drainage.
Delayed wound healing due to poor blood supply, more common in smokers, individuals with high BMI, diabetics, those with hypothyroidism, and patients with multiple health issues.
Temporary numbness or altered skin sensation, often lasting 3-6 months.
Scar formation in the lower buttock area, with a potential for hypertrophy in some individuals.
Rare events of skin loss or sutural dehiscence, possibly requiring resuturing.
Temporary persistent pain, generally manageable with medications.
Prolonged swelling and skin discoloration, which gradually resolves.
Rare occurrence of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary, or cardiac complications, particularly in patients with multiple pre-existing conditions and when multiple procedures are performed concurrently.
Extremely rare fat embolism.
The potential need for revision surgery if desired results are not met initially.
These risks and possible complications should be thoroughly discussed with Dr. Amit Agarwal before the procedure. The full benefits of butt augmentation become evident once the swelling subsides. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial to preserving your newly enhanced profile and confidence.
To ensure a successful outcome and optimal recovery, adhere to the following do’s and don’ts:
Do discuss any prior surgeries or medical conditions openly with your surgeon.
Do wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and achieve proper shape.
Do consult your doctor promptly if you experience any complications.
Do maintain a healthy lifestyle for lasting and desirable results.
Do not undergo surgery if you have a major chronic illness, and do not conceal it from your doctor.

Breast augmentation and breast reduction are two very different procedures. Augmentation (breast enlargement) increases breast volume and alters shape, usually for cosmetic or reconstructive goals. Reduction removes breast tissue and skin to make breasts smaller and relieve symptoms. In general, augmentation is chosen by patients who want fuller, more symmetrical breasts (or as reconstruction after…
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure to reshape the nose. It can be performed for cosmetic enhancement of appearance or for functional improvement of breathing (and often both). If you’re medically informed and considering rhinoplasty, it’s important to understand the types of rhinoplasty, what the surgery involves, and how the…
When diet and exercise don’t address certain stubborn fat deposits, liposuction can be a safe and effective solution—when chosen for the right reasons and in the right patient. As a commonly performed body-contouring procedure, liposuction reshapes specific areas of the body rather than serving as a weight-loss method. At Kayakriti Plastic Surgery & Dental Center…
