Description of the procedure of gluteoplasty
The operation is performed under general or spinal anesthesia. At the first stage, the surgeon makes the marking of the gluteal region, determines the location of the incisions and the installation of the implant (endoprosthesis), and also performs antiseptic measures. After this begins the main stage of the operation:
- In the area of the sacrum, two cuts are made. Their size is 3-5 cm.
- The surgeon gains access to the gluteal muscles.
- Implants are inserted under the gluteus maximus muscle or their fascia. This depth is enough to give the buttocks an aesthetic look and not to damage the implant in everyday life.
- The endoprosthesis is secured and fixed. The tissue over it is sewn up in layers.
After that, the patient comes out of anesthesia. The nurses transfer him to the hospital ward to monitor the health in the postoperative period.
The success of the procedure depends on the choice of the implant shape. It is a silicone bag gel-filled inside. There are 3 main types of implants:
- In the form of a drop. Apply to eliminate the strain due to congenital deformities and transferred injuries.
- Oval. Naturally increases the volume of the buttocks. It used in plastic surgery for aesthetic purposes.
- Round. Significantly raise the contours of the buttocks. Applied in cases where you need to greatly increase the volume of the gluteal region.
Indications and contraindications
Indications for lifting the buttocks are divided into aesthetic and reconstructive. In the first case, the patient’s simple desire to change the shape and volume of the buttocks will be sufficient. Reconstructive operations include correction after congenital abnormalities, injuries and unsuccessful surgical interventions.
Contraindications for a buttock lift are as follows:
- bleeding disorders;
- acute infectious pathology;
- severe course of chronic diseases;
- endocrine diseases;
- diabetes;
- local manifestations: rash, inflammation, and neoplasms in the area of the buttocks.
The results of the correction of the buttocks
First results can be assessed immediately after surgery. The final effect of gluteoplasty is estimated in 3-4 months – this is exactly what is needed for scar formation and engraftment of endoprostheses. According to reviews, the result of gluteoplasty is similar to lipomodeling of buttocks but at almost the same cost for both procedures, the effect of an increase with the help of implants will remain for life.
Rehabilitation period and aftercare
After surgery, the patient is transferred to the surgery hospital for 1 day. At this time, swelling of the buttocks, reduction of their sensitivity and discomfort may occur. For severe pain syndrome, your doctor will prescribe painkillers suitable for you. Edema and discomfort in the area of the buttocks pass in 1-2 weeks.
During the recovery period, you must keep the following recommendations:
- lubricate scars with healing cream, which will appoint a doctor;
- sleep on your stomach for a month;
- eliminate physical activity for at least 2-3 months;
- Do not visit the solarium and beaches – exclude sunburn of the buttock area;
- take a balanced meal, stop smoking and taking alcohol.
After gluteoplasty, injections into the gluteal region are contraindicated, as they can damage the endoprosthesis.
