Buttock Enhancement Philadelphia
Dr. Ryan Hoffman is highly experienced when it comes to buttock enhancement in Philadelphia.
The firm, high, rounded look of your butt can change as the years pass, beginning to flatten, droop and sag.
A less attractive behind can be genetic, the result of having children, due to aging, or come about after a significant loss of weight.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and only you know how you want your behind to look. You may want it to be athletic, petite and round, or plump, full, and impressive proportions. Whatever you have in mind as the ideal derriere, buttock enhancement can be the procedure that will help you achieve the look you want.
Types of Buttock Enhancement
Surgeons can perform a variety of types of buttock augmentation. The most permanent way to increase the size of the buttocks is with the use of a solid silicone buttock implant. Surgeons place these above the muscle through a well-concealed incision between the buttocks.
The other method of enlarging the buttock involves liposuction from another area and transferring the fat to the buttocks. Plastic surgeons can combine these two procedures to achieve even better results.
During your buttock augmentation consultation with Dr. Hoffman, he will listen to your specific goals and desires. He will then choose the best technique to give you the enhancement you envision.
The Brazilian Butt Lift
A Brazilian butt lift (BBL) offers butt enhancement and body-contouring results. Because of this, people often call it a two-in-one procedure. At the start, Dr. Hoffman uses liposuction to remove excess fat from a trouble area like the back, thighs, or abdomen. He then purifies this fat to remove any unnecessary materials. Finally, Dr. Hoffman injects the purified fat into the buttocks at various depths for even results.
After the BBL procedure, around 60 percent of the fat typically survives and thrives in its new location. Like all fat, it can grow or shrink with weight fluctuations.
Buttock Implants
Buttock implants are an ideal option for patients who do not have enough excess fat to transfer for a Brazilian butt lift. These prosthetic implants create permanent volume and curve. The surgical process involves administration of anesthesia and creation of a pocket in the tissues to house the implant. Once Dr. Hoffman has correctly positioned the implants, he will close the incisions with sutures.
What Is the Cost of Buttock Enhancement?
Pricing for a Brazilian butt lift includes doctor fees, hospital fees, and anesthesia.

*Prices may vary based on the specific needs of the patient and scope of the procedure.
Buttock Enhancement Q&A
Am I a good candidate for buttock enhancement?
Answer: The best candidates for buttock augmentation are in good overall health and are non-smokers. Smoking can prolong the recovery process and cause complications. Smokers must quit several weeks before the date of the procedure and must continue to avoid smoking during recovery.
What type of liposuction is done during a Brazilian butt lift?
Answer: Tumescent liposuction is used for a BBL. During the procedure, tumescent fluid is injected into the region through tiny incisions. This fluid contains epinephrine, saline, and local anesthetic. It makes the fat swell for easier removal and also limits bleeding.
Dr. Hoffman then inserts a cannula. This loosens the stubborn fat from the surrounding tissues. The doctor removes the fat cells with the cannula through vacuum suction.
Dr. Hoffman performs S.A.F.E. liposuction. This technique is a preferred way to help avoid irregularities of the skin and mild contour deformities.
What is butt augmentation recovery like?
Answer: The healing and recovery process varies depending on the type of buttock enhancement you receive. Generally, swelling and bruising are common but will fade in time. Proper incision care is vital to prevent infection.
You will not be able to sit directly on your buttocks until cleared, and you will need to take time off from your job. Physically taxing activities must be avoided while you heal.
