what is a gluteal augmentation procedure

A gluteal augmentation procedure, also known as buttock augmentation, is a cosmetic surgery used to improve the volume, shape, and contour of the buttocks. There are different techniques for this procedure, including the use of implants or transferring existing fat, or sometimes a combination of both. The appropriate technique for each patient is determined based on factors such as butt size and shape. The procedure is performed through tiny incisions where a blunt metal cannula is inserted to deliver the harvested fat. A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) is a common type of buttock enhancement procedure that involves transferring fat from one area of the body into the tissues of the buttocks. However, it is important to note that gluteal augmentation surgery, including BBLs, are technically demanding procedures that require appropriate training to be executed safely. The risks associated with this procedure include infection, bleeding, and anesthesia complications, among others.
