Rules to a safe and optimized results in buttock augmentation with fat graft

Foued Hamza

Dr Hamza Clinic, France

uttock appearance is undeniably important to human

attraction. A low (0.70) waist-to-hip ratio in women is

regarded as ideal. Today, the Brazilian Butt Lift is one of themost

requested cosmetic surgical procedures. The gluteus area is a

symbol of sensuality and sexuality, which is important according

to the body image scale for both women and men. Deformities

or lack of a pleasant shape of the region is very frequent and

the demand for correction is increasing. A combined procedure

of liposuction and lipostructure that aims at shaping the gluteus

contour by modifying the natural convexities and concavities

has been used by the author for the past 4 years with good

results and patient satisfaction. The advantage of autologous fat

is that there is minimal risk of infection and no risks of implant

malposition, rotation, or extrusion. Another advantage of

autologous fat transfer is that fat is removed from less desirable

areas such as the abdomen, flanks, back, and/or thighs. The key

area to suction is the lumbosacral triangle (the “V” zone). This

alone gives the visual illusion of a prominent buttock. The fat

is harvested using standard tumescent liposuction techniques

and then separated by gravity. The most serious complication of

buttock fat injection is fat embolism, which is often immediately

fatal. This problem is caused by deep penetration of the cannula,

with trauma to the gluteal veins. Surgeons may reduce the

risk by injecting tangentially to the muscle, staying within the

subcutaneous plane. The authors present here their approach

for this predictable procedure explaining the golden rules to do

it safely with a good outcome results. A good result depends on

the harmonious combination of fat elimination by liposuction

and fat grafting to the buttocks with long lasting results.
