Gluteoplasty (buttock augmentation)

Gluteoplasty is a plastic surgical procedure aimed at increasing and reshaping the buttocks. The operation helps create rounded, lifted contours, correct asymmetry, and restore volume after significant weight loss or age-related changes.

When is gluteoplasty indicated?

• Insufficient buttock volume due to anatomical features.
• A flat or poorly defined buttock shape.
• Loss of firmness and volume after significant weight loss.
• Buttock asymmetry caused by congenital features or previous trauma.
• The desire to achieve more expressive and aesthetically pleasing body contours.

How is the procedure performed?

1. Surgeon consultation – the optimal correction method is selected (implants, lipofilling, or a combined approach).
2. Anesthesia – the procedure is performed under general anesthesia.
3. Volume formation – the surgeon places buttock implants or injects the patient’s own fat to shape and enhance volume.
4. Tissue fixation and suturing – sutures are placed in natural skin folds to minimize visible scarring.
5. Rehabilitation – the patient wears compression garments to support healing.

Types of gluteoplasty

• Buttock augmentation with implants – silicone implants are used to create a stable and defined shape.
• Lipofilling (fat transfer to the buttocks) – the patient’s own fat is transferred from other areas of the body.
• Combined technique – a combination of implants and lipofilling for a more natural-looking result.

Advantages of gluteoplasty in Belarus

• Creation of natural-looking volume and a lifted contour.
• Long-lasting results that remain stable for many years.
• Correction of asymmetry and improvement of overall body proportions.
• Minimal incisions and a relatively fast recovery period.

Recovery after gluteoplasty

• Wearing compression garments for 4–6 weeks.
• Limiting physical activity and avoiding sitting during the first weeks.
• Sleeping on the stomach to reduce pressure on the operated area.
• Regular follow-up visits with the surgeon to monitor healing.

The procedure is performed in modern plastic surgery clinics using advanced techniques that ensure safety, natural-looking results, and a smooth recovery.
