Buttock treatment: volume, contour and support

How it works

The appearance of the buttocks depends on several factors: the volume and distribution of fat, the muscles, skin firmness and the presence of cellulite. For this reason, the treatment combines techniques with different functions:

• Body biostimulator: stimulates collagen production and improves skin firmness and quality.
• Body filler: restores volume and improves contour at specific points.
• Subcision: releases the fibers that form cellulite dimples.

The combination of techniques is defined at the evaluation, according to each patient's anatomy and goal.

Indications

• ButtocksLoss of volume, contour and firmness of the buttock area.
• CelluliteCellulite with dimples and laxity on the buttocks.
• Body skin laxityLaxity of the skin of the buttocks and the transition to the thighs.

Treated areas

What a session is like

The doctor assesses the area with the patient standing and marks the areas for each technique. After cleaning and anesthesia, the products are applied with a cannula or needle, and, when indicated, subcision is done in the same session. A session lasts about 1 hour.

Recovery

There may be swelling, tenderness and bruising, more intense when subcision is included.

Sessions and results

The effect of the filler is seen right after the application, and that of the biostimulator develops over the months. The number of sessions and the interval between them depend on the dermatologist's individual evaluation and on each patient's clinical concern.

Contraindications

The treatment is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding, over wounds or active infections, or for people allergic to the components of the products. Previous permanent fillers, such as PMMA and silicone, require evaluation with dermatologic ultrasound.

At the evaluation, the dermatologist reviews your health history, current medications and previous procedures to confirm the indication.
