Ranked #1,378 in Healthy Living, #26,917 overall

Butt implants or buttock implants are used for the in popularity growing butt lift or butt augmentation. The goal of this cosmetic surgery is to create a larger and curvier butt or rear end.

Certain parts of the human body like the buttocks and calves don't respond much on exercise when the goal is creating mass. The shape of the buttocks depends of the fullness of the gluteus muscles.

Gluteal implants are the same as buttocks implants. The implants are placed under the gluteus maximus muscle, hence the name gluteal implants.

The desire to have a curvier derriere like Jennifer Lopez or Kim Kardashian can be fulfilled with cosmetic buttocks surgery by applying butt implants.

Butt Implants Material

solid or semi solid silicones

Butt implants are made of solid silicone or semi-solid silicone elastomers that cannot leak. The implants have a natural feeling comparable to a well-toned muscle but aren't as soft as breast implants. The silicones used are more like the material used for chin augmentation but the implants are getting softer and softer.

The Youtube video below shows some good information about the strength, safety and softness of silicone buttock implants.

Butt Implants Surgery

The Procedure

Butt implants are placed on the top of the behind. This way someone would not sit on them. If you put your hands in your back pockets and sit down you'll notice the implants will be positioned just above the sitting area.

Butt implants are mostly tear drop or egg shaped and are placed under or between the gluteus maximus muscle through a small vertical incision in the crease of the buttocks. The scar of this small incision will, in most cases, disappear after about a year or so.

The surgery will take about 2 to 3 hours and is usually done under general anaesthesia. Most patients can go home the same day.

Butt Implants Risks and Side Effects

The buttock augmentation procedure has the highest risk of all body implant procedures.
Some of the after effects can be: soreness, numbness, swelling and bruising. These side effects will disappear after a few days. Patients can be treated with antibiotics and anti swelling medication.

Butt Augmentation Aftercare

Healing time after buttocks surgery

It is recommended to take of a solid two weeks from work. Most people are able to go back to work after approximately two weeks but this cosmetic surgery must not be taken lightly. The behind is a high tension area so patients have to be very carefully. Getting butt implants might be the most painful implant surgery there is.

The first week or two, one has to sleep on his or her stomach and physical activity has to be avoided as much as possible.

Buttock Augmentation Compression Garments

Butt compression garments support the healing process. A few things are important to know.

Costs of buttocks implants surgery

The costs of a buttocks lift surgery start from $5000,- depending on the area you live in. Apart from the costs of the implants there are also costs for the use of the surgical facility, the surgeon's fee, the post- and after care and the anaesthesia. In total the costs of getting butt implants will be about $7000 - $10,000.

Buttocks Implants Financing

Financing of butt sculpting surgery

Most insurance companies do not cover butt implants surgery because butt augmentation is not considered to be used for reconstructive purposes but as a cosmetic plastic surgery.

In order to gain funding / financing for a buttocks augmentation surgery loans and payment plans can provide a solution. Most cosmetic surgery institutions offer finance solutions.

Brazilian butt lift

Brasilian Butt Augmentation, Micro Fat Grafting,

The Brasilian butt lift is another way to reshape the buttocks. This procedure is also called fat injections, fat transfer, or (micro)fat grafting. Instead of placing silicone implants they make use of fat that comes from other parts of the body.

The Brazilian butt lift makes use of the patient's own tissue instead of implants. This reduces the risk of a infection almost completely. The treatment results in a rounder and fuller behind. The costs of this procedure generally vary between 2,000 and 10,000 dollars. Many cosmetic surgeons offer financing options and payment plans.

    This is my take on this. These implants, what are they made of?
    There is really nothing like a minor surgery. Each one, however minor carry significant risks as we all know from experience.
    In light of the health controversy of breast implants in Europe, it is very important for any one considering an implant in any part of the body to think twice about it. Simple biology tells us that the body will reject any foreign material introduced into it, because the body recognizes itself. Treating any complications with antibiotic is not a healthy option either. The over use of antibiotics has resulted in germs mutating into resistant bugs that are hard to eradicate. Antibiotics also kill off the good bacteria in the intestine, exposing the user to even worse infections and poor digestion. Resistant bugs, yeast infection, diarrhea, poor digestion and lower immune system, are some of the consequences of antibiotic overuse.
    There is a healthier alternative for getting the perfect butt
    There is no substitute for effort. An implant, even if effective, is a temporary solution
