Butt Augmentation Los Angeles: When are Gluteal Implants preferred over fat transfer?

Posted By: Dr. Dennis Dass | Published On: May 1, 2019 | Brazilian ButtLift
Gluteal implants (butt implants) are used to augment and reshape the buttock. Women with smaller frames are typically good candidates for buttock implants because they do not have enough fat to undergo a Brazilian Butt Lift, ie a fat transfer procedure to the buttock. Medium and larger framed patients typically like the fat transfer to the butt because they get the added benefit of liposuction to contour the waist. In large frames patients, the implant is typically not going to reshape the buttock, and is at risk of looking somewhat abnormal. The recovery from a buttock implant is sometimes quicker. Most patients are able to sit right away after buttock implant surgery because the implant sits higher than the buttock bone. Gluteal implants are solid silicone. This differs from silicone breast implants, which are made of a cohesive gel. That means that the gluteal implants are firm, whereas the breast implants are soft. Solid gluteal implants are ideal because they cannot leak, or rupture, and are therefore very durable. The buttock will still feel natural, but toned like someone that exercises a lot.

Butt implants are available in a variety of different shapes and sizes. This allows the ability to customize the augmentation for each individual patient. For example, women with shorter height butts typically need round implants, while taller butts need more of an oval shaped implant. Once you are sized, the appropriate size and shape implant will be ordered specifically for you. Certain clothes tend to fit better when the buttock is more shapely. Women state that their self-confidence is improved after surgery. Buttock augmentation (with implants) is a great option for petite women that are interested in having the curves that they have always wanted.

Highly recommend! wouldn't go to anyone else. 6 Months post BBL and I seem to LOVE my body more by the day! Dr. Dass truly did an amazing job shaping my body. I'm very petite and was concerned I wouldn't have enough fat to transfer, however Dr. Dass exceeded my expectations. I'm 5'2 range from 123-128 lbs He gave me the curves I dreamed of! His staff was very helpful, answered every question I had and took well care of me during the whole procedure. The recovery went smooth, did everything he instructed me to do and was back at work in 8 days! Highly recommend! wouldn't go to anyone else. Right off the bat you can tell how professional and knowledgeable he is.

My truSculptflex experience was incredible. My truSculptflex experience was incredible. I did as many areas as possible; quads, abs, obliques, hamstrings, buttocks. I continued to see a difference in both fat loss around the muscles and muscles increasing in size. The skin was tighter and firmer around treated areas too. 4 treatments and the results continued to improve 3 months later! Life Changing!! I’m blown away by this technology and would recommend DrDass and his office for the most effective, up to date technology in all of the services he offers. He takes pride on being young, on the cutting edge of the best and most effective treatments/surgeries/procedures to attain to your goals. Whatever they may be!

Dr. Dass and his amazing team made me feel so comfortable and safe. I couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision of choosing Dr. Dass. I was afraid of going through this journey but Dr. Dass and his amazing team made me feel so comfortable and safe. From the consultation leading up to the day of the procedure, everyone made sure to answer any questions I had and throughly walked me through what was to be expected. I truly appreciate the entire team and Dr. Dass. My results are incredible and I did not have a single complication. When choosing your doctor please do not let the cost be the deciding factor. This is an investment for yourself and it is important to remember your health comes before all else.

I just have to say thanks to him I had my BBL with Dr. Dass and was the best decision that I made. He did exactly what I wanted and my recovery was very fast and no painful at all. I was a bit worried because I live in another state and needed to travel, but it took a short time for me to go back to my normal life. I just have to say thanks to him..

Doctor Dennis Dass is simply the BEST I had my BBL and extended tummy tuck approximately around 8 weeks ago and i couldnt be more grateful, I was fortunate enough to had work done by such a skilled surgeon. Doctor Dennis Dass is simply the BEST, he's a Master in the Art of Plastic Surgery I look better then when i was in my 20's. He put color back into my life giving me the courage to do the things I once was too overly conscious and afraid to do and for that I'll forever be grateful for.
