Endoscopic buttock augmentation and things to know

The demand for plastic surgery to create body contours focusing on the buttocks area is increasing. The endoscopic buttock augmentation procedure involves precise dissection of the implantable area under endoscopic imaging, allowing for optimal cosmetic effect while minimizing the risk of sciatic nerve injury. This technique is proven to be safe and reliable.

The buttocks are an important area in the body. The buttocks are made up of muscles and especially have many blood vessels and nerves that come out from the pelvis, and then down the back of the thigh. The gluteal structure consists of the major muscles of the gluteus maximus (gluteus maximus), gluteus medius (gluteus medius), and gluteus medius (gluteus minimus).
Aesthetically, the tight and round buttocks will help women be more confident when wearing clothes, especially tights or swimwear, helping women confidently show off their soft curves. In addition, increasing the size of the third round will help women attract attention to the opposite sex and increase the feeling of sublimation in sex,... That's why many women look to plastic surgery to lift the buttocks. .
Buttock augmentation is a cosmetic procedure to shape and increase the size of the buttocks. Currently, there are many methods of buttock augmentation such as exercises to lift the buttocks or inject fillers to lift the buttocks, or to lift the buttocks with autologous fat, to lift the buttocks with implants, etc. or very thin so there is not enough fat to be aspirated for buttock augmentation surgery. In this case, buttock augmentation with implants is the most suitable method for women.
Thanks to the development of modern technology, buttock augmentation with implants is performed with a combination of endoscopic techniques to increase the efficiency and safety of the patient's buttock augmentation surgery. And this technique is called laparoscopic butt lift surgery.

2. What is the laparoscopic butt lift surgery procedure? Before laparoscopic butt lift surgery, the doctor will examine and advise on choosing the right size of the implant, agreeing with the patient on the implementation plan. At the same time, the patient will be given some general tests to ensure that the patient's health condition is stable.
Step 1: Mark before surgery. Based on the anatomical structure of the buttock muscle, the doctor will mark the locations for implantation of implants.
Step 2: The patient is given an epidural or anesthetic depending on the health condition. To keep the patient comfortable and pain-free, pain medication is administered intravenously.
Step 3: The surgeon relies on the support of the laparoscope. The gluteal muscle fibers are enlarged on the screen for precise manipulation by the doctor. First, the surgeon will make an incision in the buttock area. Specifically, incisions can be made in positions such as upward on either side of the top of the upper buttock; toward the bottom in both folds of the buttocks (this is a good scar hiding area); incisions on the sides of the buttocks (hidden in the folds of the buttocks); an incision below the center of the sacrum; or the crease between the buttocks.
Step 4: The implant specially designed for the buttocks is inserted into the muscle or above the gluteal muscle on both sides, and the implant is fixed between the gluteal muscle and the bag (round or oval), the size you want wants, butt textures and recommendations from the doctor.
Step 5: Close the incision. Incisions will be closed with sutures, and to prevent infection of the incision, hematomas, skin glue and surgical dressings to seal the skin will also be used in areas that cannot be covered.

3. Care After Laparoscopic Butt Lift Post-operative care contributes to the satisfactory outcome of laparoscopic buttock augmentation surgery. Some notes include:
Re-examination and thread trimming after 1 week. Patients should avoid sitting for 1 week, driving for 2 weeks, and should sleep in the prone or side-lying position for 2 weeks. Patients must wear special tights for 30 days to reduce swelling and speed up recovery after laparoscopic butt lift surgery. Patients can exercise or be active after 2 months. Absolute contraindication to lifelong intramuscular injection. Diet: Do not eat foods such as seafood, beef, sticky rice, ... and avoid the use of alcohol, beer and stimulants, ... so that the wound heals quickly, leaving no scars. .

4. Is the laparoscopic butt lift safe? The laparoscopic support allows for safe surgery and excellent precision of the dissected submuscular bag due to direct imaging. At the same time, endoscopic buttock augmentation helps to stop bleeding accurately, maintaining the insertion position without blood. In the case of subsequent implantation, the endoscopic device allows direct and magnified view of the previous implant.
Some of the most common side effects include: Excessive bleeding after surgery, pain, scarring, changes in skin color, infection, accumulation of fluid or blood under the buttocks, allergic reactions, skin loss, nausea and vomiting due to anesthesia,...
Some other unwanted risks such as implant slippage, deviation or displacement from the original implant site. If that happens, the patient must be re-examined and may need surgery to correct. Unexpected risks like above can be overcome. Specifically:
Risk of infection due to the surgical site near the anus. To reduce the risk of infection, the doctor will inject antibiotics during pre-anesthesia and Dermabond skin glue to help close the sutured area that cannot be covered, preventing infection of the skin adjacent to the anus. Risk of hematoma: Hematoma can occur, however, endoscopic techniques will help improve hemostasis for the patient. Sciatica is a possible complication that can be prevented by not placing the implant under the buttocks, where the sciatic nerve is located. Thanks to the development of effective laparoscopic butt lift technology and high safety rate, buttock augmentation is becoming more and more popular. However, when registering to perform the surgical method, there are many issues women need to consider including cost, recovery time, overall health, ... and the desire to improve body shape.
