During a buttock lift the extra skin is reduced, tissue is tightened and smoothed, and extra fat is removed. Following the procedure, your buttocks should look more toned and defined.
You might find that the skin on your buttock changes after significant weight loss. You may notice that it becomes loose and starts to sag. Working out should help to strengthen and improve the tone of your buttock muscles, but you are likely to find that no amount of exercise can fix excess skin that has lost its elasticity.
After going through the effort of losing weight, it can be disappointing not to have the shape you had hoped for. Many people opt for surgery to help tighten those areas of the body most affected by it. After having a buttock lift, you should achieve a more contoured and smoother shape, which may open up more options when choosing your clothes.

Your excess fat and skin are removed during a buttock lift, with further definition being achieved using liposuction when required. The procedure should result in a tighter and more toned appearance.
Whilst the results of a buttock lift are usually long lasting, you should limit your weight fluctuation following surgery. If the skin is stretched again through weight gain, then you may need additional surgery to tighten the area once more.
All surgical procedures pose a potential risk, and it is important know what these are before you go ahead so that you can weigh them up against the benefits your procedure could bring. During your consultations you will talk through these potential complications and you can ask any questions that you have about them.
As a guide, they may include pain, infections, scars bleeding, blood clots, numbness and changes in sensation.
If you want to bring a more toned and defined shape to your buttocks then you might be considering this surgery. Do not forget that this procedure is not a weight loss surgery – it is a way to bring further definition and tone to your buttocks area. As such you should already be close to your ideal weight to be considered for surgery. Your expert surgeon will assess whether or not you have got enough loose skin and elasticity to allow for a good outcome.
You should be generally fit and healthy, and if you are a smoker you will need to stop smoking before and after surgery.
