Buttock augmentation
Buttock reshaping surgery to enhance volume, shape and projection
MADRID | ZURICH
He buttock augmentation is an intervention aimed at improving the volume, shape and projection of this area, always seeking a more harmonious and proportionate silhouette. Factors such as genetics, weight changes, ageing or hormonal variations can cause the buttocks to lose firmness, definition or volume over time.
Beyond the size, this procedure allows redefining body contours and improve the relationship between the waist, hips and buttocks. To do this, it is essential to carry out an individualised assessment and choose the most appropriate technique in each case.
In our clinics of Madrid and Zurich, surgery can be performed by gluteal lipotransfer, gluteal implants or a combination of both techniques, depending on the patient's anatomy and the desired result.

Instructions
What buttock augmentation can improve
This surgery may be indicated when correction or improvement is sought in any of the following areas:
- flat or underprojected buttocks
- lack of volume in the buttock area
- loss of firmness or definition
- asymmetries between the two sides
- changes after significant weight loss
- disproportion between waist, hips and buttocks
In many cases, in addition to increasing volume, the procedure can improve overall body contouring, especially when combined with liposuction in areas such as the abdomen, flanks or thighs.
Techniques to augment and reshape the buttocks
There is no single technique that is valid for all patients. The choice depends on factors such as the amount of fat available, the initial shape of the buttocks, the quality of the tissues and the expected result.
Buttock Lipotransfer or Brazilian Butt Lift
Butt Lipotransfer, also known as Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), uses the patient's own fat to enhance the volume and shape of the buttocks.
The procedure is carried out in three phases:
removal of fat by liposuction, usually in the abdomen, flanks or thighs
processing and purification of the fat obtained
strategic infiltration in the buttocks area to improve shape, volume and projection
This technique allows you to achieve a very natural result and, in addition, to reshape other areas of the body thanks to the previous liposuction.
Buttock implants
When the patient has little fat or is looking for a more pronounced projection, the placement of silicone buttock implants can be considered.
These implants are specifically designed for this anatomical area and are usually placed through discreet incisions in the intergluteal cleft so that the scar is barely visible.
Implants allow a more defined and stable augmentation, especially in patients with very flat buttocks or with little adipose tissue.
Combination of implants and own fat
In some cases, the best option is to combine both techniques. Implants provide volume and structure, while fat grafting allows for smoother contours and a more natural transition between buttocks and hips.
This combination can be especially useful when a more complete reshaping of the silhouette is sought.
Planning
Personalised planning of gluteal surgery
Planning is an essential part of the treatment. It is not only about increasing volume, but also about designing a balanced result adapted to each body.
During the consultation, aspects such as the following are assessed:
- body proportions
- natural shape of the buttocks
- skin and subcutaneous tissue quality
- availability of fat for lipotransfer
- desired degree of projection
- patient expectations
Based on this analysis, the most appropriate technique is defined to achieve a harmonious, natural result that is consistent with the anatomy of each person.
Considerations
What you should know before considering buttock augmentation
Although this surgery can significantly improve the silhouette, it is important to have realistic expectations.
The procedure:
- is not a substitute for weight loss
- does not modify the bony structure of the pelvis
- does not guarantee a result identical to reference images.
- may be affected by major weight changes in the future.
For this reason, intervention is usually recommended when body weight is relatively stable and there is a clear indication.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best technique to increase the volume of the buttocks?
It depends on the patient's anatomy. Buttock lipotransfer is usually a good option when there is sufficient fat available and a natural result is desired. Buttock implants may be more appropriate when there is little body fat or a greater projection is desired.
How long do the results last?
In the case of implants, the volume remains stable over the long term. When buttock augmentation is performed with the patient's own fat, some of the infiltrated fat is reabsorbed during the first few months, while the fat that is well integrated remains permanently.
When is it possible to sit down normally again?
After a lipotransfer it is usually recommended to avoid direct pressure on the buttocks for several weeks. During this period, specific seat cushions can be used to reduce pressure on the treated area.
Does the surgery leave visible scars?
It depends on the technique used. In the case of implants, the incisions are usually placed in the intergluteal cleft so that they are inconspicuous. In fat transfer, liposuction incisions are small and inconspicuous.
How is the final volume decided?
The planning is not only based on increasing the size, but also on maintaining a good proportion between waist, hips and buttocks. The aim is to achieve a harmonious and natural aesthetic improvement.
