Butt Lift

A butt lift is an aesthetic surgical procedure performed to reshape, lift, and rejuvenate sagging or out-of-shape buttocks. It is applied to correct sagging in the buttocks caused by aging, genetic structure, gravity, pregnancy, or excessive weight loss.

What is a Butt Lift?

Butt lift surgery is performed by removing excess skin and tissue to give the buttocks a more lifted and toned appearance. It can be supported by liposuction or combined with fat injection if necessary.

Before butt lift surgery, detailed planning is done according to the patient's expectations. The surgeon determines the appropriate techniques based on factors such as the extent of sagging, skin elasticity, and volume deficiency, if any. Depending on the scope of the application, only excess skin may be removed, or a combined application with shaping procedures can be planned.
