The procedure of removing fat from the buttocks is referred to in medical literature as "buttock aesthetics" or "gluteal liposuction". This procedure is a surgical operation performed to eliminate excess fat in the buttock area. Liposuction, on the other hand, is a surgical procedure in which unwanted fat is suctioned out from the body. Therefore, buttock fat removal is a subcategory of liposuction.
This procedure is usually performed in cases where there is excess fat in the buttock area, aiming to correct the shape and contour of the buttocks, achieve a more aesthetic appearance, balance body proportions, or help the individual reach the desired buttock shape.
Buttock fat removal typically involves the following steps:
1. **Patient Evaluation:** First, the surgeon determines the desired outcome with the patient. The patient's health status, body structure, and expectations are evaluated.
2. **Anesthesia:** The procedure is usually performed under local or general anesthesia. This provides comfort for the patient and minimizes pain.
3. **Surgical Procedure:** The surgeon makes small incisions in the buttock area and uses a thin cannula (tube) to suction out the fat tissue. The fat tissue is suctioned, and the desired shape and contour are achieved.
4. **Wound Healing and Results:** In the post-operative period, the patient may experience bruising, swelling, and mild pain in the buttock area. These symptoms improve over time, and the desired results begin to appear.
5. **Recovery Process:** Post-surgical recovery is important. The patient should be careful for a certain period and follow the doctor's recommendations. This helps prevent post-operative complications and achieve the best results.
Buttock fat removal can vary depending on the individual's physical characteristics and desires. To achieve a successful outcome, it is important to have a detailed consultation with an experienced surgeon.
