NON-SURGICAL BUTT LIFT AND BODY CONTOURING WITH FILLERS

Buttock augmentation is one of the most popular aesthetic treatment trends of the last decade. The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) is an extremely popular procedure for augmentation and aims to shape the buttocks by obtaining fat from other areas of the body through liposuction and reinjecting it into the lower back and loins.

However, it has become a controversial procedure due to high reports of complication rates and the highest death rate of all cosmetic surgery procedures. Dermal fillers can be a suitable alternative for patients seeking to enhance this area. However, the search for alternative methods has recently led to hyaluronic acid (HA) based products being designed specifically for buttock enhancement.

Non-surgical butt lift and body contouring is an amazing alternative for surgical butt lifts or implants. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are used to lift the butt, give more volume, improve the shape, correct hip dips, improve skin quality and cellulites. No cuts, no scarring, no general anaesthesia is needed and can be done in less than an hour.

Butt fillers are injected with a blunt cannula under the skin and not under the  muscles so complications of actual bbl surgery will be avoided so non-surgical butt lift and body contouring is a much easier and safer treatment than surgical butt lift and results last up to 2 years.

 

 

Depending on your goals 2-3 sessions may be needed for the best results.

 

WHAT IS BUM & HIP DIP FILLER

The advancement in non surgical body treatments has made it convenient for people to get the body they desire without having to deal with downtime or risks of complications.

 

This is a minimally invasive filler treatment designed to reshape and enhance the buttocks using Hyaluronic Acid injections. Hyaluronic acid is produced naturally by the body and contributes to the plumpness, moistness and firmness of our skin.

 

Bum/Hip fillers are a fast and effective way to create your ‘dream’ bum – significantly improving the shape of the buttock and hip area – without the need for invasive general surgery.

 

This process successfully enhances the overall lift, contour and appearance of both the buttocks and hips. It can also help to improve the appearance of stretch marks, smooth cellulite and promote good skin quality. It's a safe and natural substance that is used in many cosmetic treatments, such as lip and cheek fillers, due to its instant hydrating and volumising effect.

 

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?

Body fillers rely on your body’s natural response, the results are gradual and get better with every session.

In most cases, the desired shape is achieved with 2-4 sessions.

 

However, In some cases, one session may be enough. The number of required sessions will depend on your own situation and goals, and will be discussed with you during your consultation.

 

Please Note that due to the size of the treated area, Bum Lifts with GeneFill generally use more product than dermal filler treatments on the face. Keep in mind that hyaluronic acid is a substance that the body ends up reabsorbing, so it is not a definitive treatment.

 

The effects of the intervention will be visible between 18 - 24 Months depending on the body of each patient, some may even last Years. After that time, a new intervention will be necessary to increase the buttocks again.


DOES IT HURT?

​You may experience slight discomfort as any cosmetic treatment. However, for this treatment, Lidocaine and cannulas are used to reduce discomfort or pain.

 

Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic (numbing medication) that is used to numb an area of your body to help reduce pain or discomfort caused by cosmetic procedures.

​

 

WHATS THE DOWNTIME?

After the procedure, you can go home the same day of intervention. It is normal that immediately after the treatment and during the first days you notice some discomfort in the treated area, and bruises can even appear. Clients may also experience slight swelling around the points of injection, where this can be dealt with using paracetamol.

 

In most cases, downtime is minimal and any bruising will clear up in a few days. You may be advised on some aftercare techniques to aid with recovery at home and ensure the filler is evenly distributed inside the skin.

 

The final outcome will not be seen immediately, but in about two to four weeks when the swelling and redness have subsided. The Total recovery is estimated four weeks after the procedure.

 

 

PRE CARE ADVICE 
WHAT TO DO BEFORE YOUR TREATMENT

In the first days, I recommend clients to avoid making any efforts and Avoid strenuous workouts, consume excessive amounts of alcohol or expose themselves to extreme temperatures, such as Hot baths, Sunbeds/Saunas. For bruising, arnica supplements are recommended.

 

A dressing will be applied to the injected points with a disinfectant. It is strongly recommended that patients keep it on for at least three days and avoid getting it wet.
