For ages, the contour of the buttock are has been a source of allure and sex appeal. For women who have a flat, poorly developed buttock region, buttock augmentation can provide the curves they have always desired.

“Buttock augmentation is a wonderful solution for women who cannot develop prominent gluteal muscles, lack buttock fat, or simply want a better-contoured buttock,” says Dr. Douglas Hendricks, a buttock augmentation surgeon in Newport Beach, California.

With the popularity of celebrities like Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce growing, more and more women are paying attention to how their buttock area appears. When exercise and diet fail to provide the look you desire, buttock augmentation might be the best solution.

If you are considering having a buttock augmentation procedure, contact an experienced plastic surgeon near you and schedule an initial consultation. During your initial consultation, you will learn about the buttock augmentation procedure, implant placement options, incision placement options, possible risks, and what recovery will be like.

After you have discussed all aspects of the buttock augmentation procedure with your plastic surgeon, you will be able to schedule the actual buttock augmentation appointment.

During the buttock augmentation procedure, your plastic surgeon will have you lie on your stomach and place you under general anesthesia. After you are unconscious, he or she will make the incisions for the buttock augmentation that the two of you have decided on.

After making the incisions, your plastic surgeon will create the buttock implant pocket either above or below the muscle. After the buttock implant has been placed, the incisions will be closed, and your buttock augmentation will be complete.

“For many of my buttock augmentation patients, their improved buttock contour provides them with a much-needed boost in confidence because they finally have the shape they have always wanted,” says Dr. Hendricks.

If you would like to improve the contour of your buttock area, contact an experienced buttock augmentation surgeon in your area. Not all plastic surgeons perform buttock augmentation, it is important to schedule an initial consultation and determine if your plastic surgeon is the right person to perform your procedure.
