As we age, our buttocks gradually changes shape by drooping and sagging. This can have harmful effects on one’s self image and sense of attractiveness. Although previously there was no real answer for this aging process,Dr. Messa offers a surgical procedure that can help an individual look and feel more positive about their body. Men and women ideal candidates are in good physical and mental health and have realistic expectations about what plastic surgery can do for them. The skin tone may be poor with loose or excess skin, stretch marks and cellulite. Although these patients may not be good candidates for liposuction, the buttocks lift (also known as thighplasty) works well for patients who have a large amount of loose skin. There are various buttocks lift methods and procedures that can be performed by Dr. Messa to show positive success. Based on your specific goals, expectations and desires,Dr. Messa will meet with you to determine what procedure is best for you. Liposuction, fat transfer and lifts are all used to sculpt the buttocks region into a desired shape. The Surgical Procedure During the buttocks lift procedure, excess skin is removed and the buttocks are raised to a higher position on the body with tighter skin and smoother texture. Performed concurrently with the lift, some patients desire an augmentation that utilizes fat from other areas of the body. This additional procedure may be performed at the same time as the buttocks lift or at a later date. Buttocks lift surgery is often performed on patients who have also undergone tummy tuck or liposuction procedures. This helps to remove excess fat from the body, but can sometimes leave behind loose skin that has lost its elasticity. In some cases, patients desire a fuller buttocks shape which can necessitate the use of fat grafting. Dr. Messa uses specialized techniques to reshape and enhance the buttock with a fat transfer. This procedure is called buttock augmentation. The Recovery After the procedure, patients are fitted with a body garment that aids in the healing process and helps the skin to adapt to its new contour. Patients are usually able to return to work in about one to two weeks following surgery, although some swelling may be noticeable for several months. Although Dr. Messa makes incisions into the skin to perform the procedure, scars are usually placed so that they are hidden well beneath a swimsuit. There is an immediate difference in the shape of the buttocks that is both dramatic and noticeable. Any form of surgery carries an amount of uncertainty and risk, and buttocks lift surgery is no exception. Fortunately, when performed by a board certified plastic surgeon, the procedure is remarkably safe. Dr. Messa will address any concerns you may have during your personalized consultation.
