The implants are inserted using a mall incision in the lower part of the buttocks at the natural skin fold. This also reduces visibility of the scar.
• Lipid tissue transplantation in the buttocks also known as Brazilian buttock lift is a fat transfer procedure that augments the size and shape of the buttocks without implants but  lipid tissue taken from other site of the patient’s body (abdominal, thigh or other area). This is a very popular technique, which is accepted and chosen by women because of a naturally looking result.
