Special Liposuction - Buttock Volume-Up and Feminine Pelvic Contour
; Buttock volume-up liposuction combines a buttock lift (buttock-up) procedure with buttock reduction or augmentation (fat transfer) as needed. The treatment may also include the hips, flanks, sacral back, and lateral thigh saddlebags. This comprehensive approach not only refines the outer pelvic contour but also corrects buttock ptosis (sagging) to create a voluminous, lifted buttock.
Buttock Liposuction -- Volume-Up (Buttock Lift with Reduction or Augmentation)
Just as Venus Clinic performs breast reduction liposuction to correct breast ptosis caused by weight loss or aging, we also perform buttock volume-up liposuction. This procedure simultaneously lifts saggy, flat buttocks and enhances volume, creating a sensuous, shapely contour.
HIPS / SACRAL BACK / BUTTOCKS / LATERAL THIGHS
The hips, buttocks, and lateral thighs are considered a single cosmetic unit. The contour line extending from the hips above the pelvis, through the buttocks, and along the lateral thighs represents one of the most aesthetically significant feminine features alongside the breasts. Simultaneous liposuction of all these areas is essential to create a beautifully feminine body contour.
Removing fat from the lateral and inferior aspects of the buttocks causes the buttock tissue to gather centrally, creating the appearance of longer legs. This is commonly referred to as the "hip-up" effect -- more accurately termed the "buttock-up" effect -- where previously sagging buttocks appear perky and lifted, producing a sensuous contour.
The buttocks are one of the most common areas requiring revision surgery. The procedure is technically demanding and often yields limited results, which is why many clinics exclude this area during thigh liposuction. This is particularly problematic for patients with relatively large buttocks, as thigh liposuction alone can make the buttocks appear even larger and more ptotic.
The buttocks, along with the breasts, symbolize femininity. An ideal buttock has adequate volume with natural, rounded contours, making it one of the most frequently requested treatment areas. Venus Clinic has extensive expertise in buttock lifting, augmentation, and reduction. When performing combined thigh and buttock procedures, patients wear a thong for before-and-after comparison photos to demonstrate the balanced result, reflecting our emphasis on the overall contour from the abdomen through the buttocks, thighs, and calves.
Evidence of Venus Clinic's Buttock Volume-Up Liposuction Results
- Creates an apple-shaped buttock contour (transforms an uneven pelvic outline into a smooth, rounded feminine curve with a lifted appearance).
- The infragluteal crease becomes shallower, shorter, or disappears entirely.
- The distance between the two buttock cheeks widens.
- On lateral view, the previously downward-pointing buttock vector redirects upward.
- Volume in the upper buttock increases relative to the lower buttock (via fat transfer).
Case 1 Buttock Liposuction -- Volume-Up
; A young woman underwent circumferential thigh and calf liposuction, buttock reduction liposuction combined with apple line liposuction, and buttock volume-up. Her typical lower body obesity pattern was successfully corrected.
Case 2. Buttock Liposuction -- Volume-Up
; A young woman underwent apple line liposuction with buttock-up. The incision that was originally concealed within the infragluteal crease is now visible because the crease has disappeared -- clear evidence that the buttock has been significantly lifted.
Case 3. Buttock Liposuction -- Volume-Up
; A young woman who had previously undergone partial liposuction of the outer buttock and saddlebag areas at another clinic. Incision scars were visible on both sides of the pelvis, and her outer hip contour was unsatisfactory. Through revision thigh liposuction combined with buttock and apple line liposuction, a successful volume-up result was achieved.
Case 4. Buttock Liposuction -- Volume-Up
; The buttocks were excessively large and ptotic preoperatively, but after the procedure, they are noticeably reduced and lifted. The incision site that was originally within the infragluteal crease is now visible below the newly formed, higher crease -- physical evidence that the buttock has genuinely lifted.
Case 5. Buttock Liposuction -- Volume-Up
; A middle-aged woman with buttock ptosis (sagging). Through apple line and buttock volume-up liposuction, the sagging was corrected and the buttocks were lifted. As the infragluteal crease became shallower, the incision originally hidden within the crease is now exposed -- further evidence of genuine buttock elevation. The incision scars will naturally fade in color and become less visible over time.
