Though there have been recent concerns about the safety of the procedure, a procedure performed by a qualified Plastic Surgeon minimizes the chances of these complications.
Candidates for the Procedure
Patients who are physically healthy and feel that their butt is too small compared to their body frame, or a buttock that is too flat and the patient desires a fuller and rounder butt are candidates for the procedure. Patients who have had massive weight loss or due to the aging process feel that their buttock has a “deflated” look may also be candidates for the procedure.
After The Surgery
• Patient must wear a support garment round the clock for a few months after the surgery. • The patient is advised to sleep prone or on the sides so as to not put pressure or weight over the fat grafted areas for about 3 weeks. • • Sitting is restricted for the first 10-14 days, except while using the toilet. • The gluteal region may feel sore for a few days post surgery. • Final results are visible once the swelling is gone.
