Reasons for surgery

– You have very small buttocks.
– You have flat or shapeless buttocks.
– You want to show off your clothes and swimsuits better.
– You have excess fat deposits that do not highlight your curves.

How do we do it?

First stage: Liposuction
Liposuction is the first part of the surgery where localized fat is removed using a cannula and a suction device. The areas of the body to be liposuctioned vary depending on the distribution of fat in each patient. Some patients may have excess fat in the abdomen, while others may prefer to remove fat from their thighs.

Second stage: Purification
After the adequate amount of fat has been extracted, a special decantation purification process will be used where the fat cells to be grafted are obtained.

Third stage: Lipotransference
The final phase of the procedure is the injection of fat into the buttocks. Special cannulas are used to transfer the fat cells. The volume to be injected will depend on the anatomical characteristics and wishes of each patient.

Most patients can return to work within a week after their surgery.

When can I return to my daily exercise routine?

What are post-surgical massages for?
