Butt Augmentation in Corpus Christi
The butt is not something that people traditionally consider ‘on display.’ These days though, a large, shapely butt is highly desirable, especially in warmer climates. Unfortunately, while the butt is the largest muscle in the body, it is also notoriously difficult to improve through diet and exercise.
For people looking to improve the appearance of their buttocks, butt augmentation surgery can help.

Should I Augment My Butt?
Some people have a naturally small or flat butt due to genetics. The butt also ages just like other areas of the body, meaning it may sag and droop over time.
If you are interested in adding volume to, firming, or reshaping your buttocks, you may be a good candidate for butt augmentation. Butt enhancement surgery can correct small, sagging, or unshapely buttocks, allowing patients to rejuvenate and improve their figure.
What Types of Butt Augmentation Are There?
There are 3 general techniques for enhancing the buttocks:
- Butt lift surgery
- Buttock implants
- Fat transfer butt augmentation (Brazilian Butt Lift)
Buttock augmentation surgery is performed as outpatient surgery and usually takes about 4 hours using general anesthesia.
What Is a Butt Lift?
A buttock lift is similar in concept to a breast lift. Similar to how breasts begin to droop over time, the buttocks tissues are affected by gravity and can also start to sag. This can worsen if the buttocks have excess skin due to weight loss.
A butt lift can lift the tissue and fat into a more compact and optimal position. It can also remove excess skin to make it harder for the buttocks to sag again.
What Are Buttock Implants?
Butt implants are silicone implants that can increase the buttocks’ volume and alter the profile of the butt. This is often seen as an alternative to a Brazilian Butt Lift.
What Is a Brazilian Butt Lift?
Buttock fat transfer, also known as the Brazilian Butt Lift, involves injecting fat cells into the buttocks to enhance the volume and shape of the butt. This is done using liposuction techniques to remove unwanted fat from another area of your body and fat grafting to strategically inject it into the buttocks.
What Is Recovery Like After Butt Augmentation?
Most patients can return to work after a week to 10 days, but full healing will take several months. During the first couple of weeks, patients will need to be careful to avoid putting pressure or tension on the buttocks. This may require specialized cushions and chairs.
What Are the Risks With Butt Augmentation?
The risks of butt augmentation surgery are similar to those of other cosmetic surgeries and may include the following:
- Infection
- Poor wound healing
- Unfavorable scarring
What Are the Results of Butt Augmentation?
Once the procedure is complete and the patient has fully recovered, they can expect to have a butt that matches their realistic aesthetic goals. Whether that means larger, more shapely, or more firm, the buttocks after butt augmentation surgery can provide a major aesthetic boost to people who want to look good on the beach or the dance floor.
