Buttocks Reshaping

Your silhouette is a key part of your self-confidence, and over time, the natural contours of the buttocks can diminish due to aging, weight fluctuations, or genetics. This can lead to a flatter or less defined appearance, causing insecurities and discomfort about your body. Buttocks reshaping is a transformative procedure designed to restore volume, enhance curves, and achieve a more balanced and youthful lower body.

At Chicago Cosmetic Surgery and Dermatology, Dr. Niki Christopoulos, a double board-certified plastic surgeon, specializes in advanced techniques to reshape and enhance the buttocks. Whether you’re seeking a subtle lift or a dramatic transformation, Dr. Christopoulos creates personalized solutions to help you achieve the curvier, more proportionate silhouette you’ve always desired.

What is Buttocks Reshaping?

Buttocks reshaping is a cosmetic enhancement procedure aimed at lifting, contouring, and reproportioning the lower body for a fuller, more youthful appearance. This surgery can address a range of concerns, including loss of volume or flatness in the buttocks, uneven proportions between the upper and lower body, and loose skin or sagging due to aging or weight loss.

By restoring volume and shape, buttocks reshaping enhances not only your physical appearance but also your confidence and sense of self.

Our Buttocks Reshaping Procedures

At Chicago Cosmetic Surgery and Dermatology, we offer two highly effective options for buttocks reshaping: the Brazilian butt lift and buttock implants.

Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)

The Brazilian butt lift is a highly sought-after procedure that combines liposuction with fat transfer to achieve a natural-looking enhancement. Excess fat is removed from areas like the abdomen, thighs, or arms, and is then purified and strategically injected into the buttocks to create a fuller, shapelier appearance.

Benefits of a BBL:

• Utilizes your body’s natural fat for augmentation
• Improves the contours of multiple areas, including the donor site
• Provides a softer, more natural feel compared to implants

Dr. Christopoulos’s precision and artistry ensure that the fat is distributed evenly for a proportional, balanced silhouette that complements your body.

Buttock Implants

For individuals without sufficient fat for transfer, silicone implants provide a fantastic alternative. This procedure involves creating small, discreet incisions near the top or bottom of the buttocks or within the natural gluteal crease. The implants are then positioned to enhance volume and shape, creating a rounder, curvier look.

Benefits of Buttock Implants:

• Consistent, predictable results
• Ideal for patients with minimal body fat
• Long-lasting enhancement

Both procedures take 1–3 hours, depending on the complexity and extent of the reshaping, and are performed in a fully accredited outpatient surgical facility.

Are You a Candidate for Buttocks Reshaping Surgery?

You may qualify for buttocks reshaping surgery if you:

• Want to enhance the shape, size, or proportions of your lower body
• Are unhappy with loose or sagging skin due to aging or weight loss
• Have realistic expectations and maintain a healthy lifestyle

Ideal candidates are non-smokers in good overall health, with stable weight for at least 6–12 months. If you’ve recently undergone weight loss but aren’t satisfied with the appearance of your buttocks, this procedure can help you achieve your desired results.

Certain factors may limit eligibility, including:

• Smoking, which can impair healing
• Chronic illnesses that increase surgical risks
• Plans for further significant weight loss

Dr. Christopoulos will evaluate your medical history, goals, and lifestyle during your consultation to ensure you’re an ideal candidate for surgery.

Recovery and Results

Buttocks reshaping delivers stunning, long-lasting results, but proper care during recovery is essential to achieving your desired outcome.

• Immediate Recovery: Light bruising, swelling, and discomfort are normal in the days following surgery. Dr. Christopoulos may recommend specific compression garments to minimize swelling and support healing.
• Returning to Daily Life: Most patients can resume normal activities within 2–3 weeks, although strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least six weeks.
• Long-Term Care: Final results will become fully visible after several months, as swelling subsides and the tissues settle.

To maintain your results, it’s important to follow Dr. Christopoulos’s post-operative instructions, including avoiding sitting directly on the buttocks for extended periods during the initial recovery phase.
