How is fat transfer to buttocks performed?
Prior to buttock enhancement, liposuction (“lipoplasty”) will be performed in order to suction out excess fat from specific areas of the body. Dr. Taranow will then administer the fat injections to the buttocks. By molding the area into the desired contour, patients are able to achieve the buttock enhancement they desire. Often, patients in Manhattan combine fat transfer to buttocks with other body contouring procedures. Some of these may include: • Breast augmentation (“augmentation mammaplasty”): Dr. Taranow will insert either saline or silicone gel filled implants to increase breast size. • Tummy tuck surgery (“abdominoplasty”): Excess skin and fat is removed from the abdomen to produce a slimmer, better-contoured stomach. • Liposuction (“lipoplasty”): Stubborn fatty areas are eliminated from specific regions of the body, such as the arms, inner thighs, hips, and lower back. The best way to determine which of these procedures best suits your individual needs is by visiting Dr. Taran
