Anatomy and ideal proportion :<\/strong><\/p>\n

Buttock augmentation can be performed by fat transfer (lipofilling) or by silicone implant<\/a>.
\nThin patients without fat reserves or patients who do not want to undergo surgery can opt for buttock augmentation with Hyacorp \u00ae hyaluronic acid.<\/p>\n

To correct a “hip dip”, i.e. a hollow in the side of the buttocks, 5 to 10 ampoules per side are usually required. To achieve a significant size increase, 15 to 25 ampoules per side are generally required.<\/p>\n

The Hyacorp \u00ae can also be used to correct hollows and irregularities of the skin that have been generated by surgical liposuction.<\/p>\n

Caution:<\/h3>\n

Hyacorp \u00ae is the only hyaluronic acid authorized for buttock injections, silicone or Macrolane\u00ae are totally forbidden, but still used in some countries. Many counterfeits of Hyacorp\u00ae are circulating, only doctors with an authorization to practice can buy this product and inject it.<\/p>\n

Technique :<\/h3>\n

Disinfection according to operating room conditions. Then, Dr. Lucas performs a local anesthesia at 1 to 2 entry points per side. Then, an infiltration with local anesthetic is performed before the injection of Hyacorp\u00ae, which is usually comfortable thanks to this anesthesia.<\/p>\n
