Buttocks Lift

Drooping and sagging of the buttocks can occur with aging, pregnancy and massive weight loss. This procedure involves contouring of the lower back, removing the excess skin from the upper buttocks and lifting the gluteal area to provide aesthetic projection and position of the buttocks.

Additional Facts

Who is a good candidate for Buttocks Lift?

Healthy patients with realistic expectations and stable weight that suffer from sagging or drooping of the buttocks.

What are Buttocks Lift contraindications?

Severe or uncontrolled systemic diseases, connective tissue disease, malignancy, unrealistic expectations, local skin pathology and pregnancy.

Note: A contraindication is a condition or factor that serves as a reason to withhold a certain medical treatment due to the harm that it would cause the patient.

How is this procedure performed?

The procedure is commonly done under tumescence anesthesia with monitored sedation. Tumescence anesthesia consists of diluted Lidocaine with epinephrine in a crystalloid solution that is infiltrated into the operative area in calculated amounts based on patient’s body weight. An incision is made above the buttocks extending to the hips, The excess skin is removed and the buttocks are pulled up. Based on the case, augmentation using native tissue (Superior gluteal artery flap) maybe utilized to provide volume and projection. A drain or more maybe placed. The incision is then closed in layers.

How long does the effect last?

Buttocks lift provides durable long term results, however, significant weight gain, pregnancy and other factors might affect the results of the procedure.

What should I expect during recovery?

Since the area is numb after the procedure, we routinely do not use narcotics for pain control and pain is easily controlled on acetaminophen (Tylenol). Also, since general anesthesia and narcotics are usually avoided, nausea and vomiting are very rare after the procedure. A compression garment is usually worn postoperatively for 2-4 weeks or longer. Patients are usually discharged to the care of a responsible adult and recover at home. Light activity and early ambulation are encouraged after the surgery. Drains, if placed, are usually removed within a week or two. Activities are advanced gradually based on your healing.

Where is the scar?

The scar is located above the upper border of the buttocks

Dr. Akkary

I wouldn't go anywhere else!

I have been seeing Dr. Akkary since 2014. The first day I was given his cell number...that has NEVER happened before at any other doctor's office. He is genuine and compassionate and really only wants to help you succeed. I have called him so many times and he has ALWAYS answered my questions. He has performed 2 surgeries on me and I wouldn't go anywhere else! I trust him and his staff completely. They will listen to all of your concerns and explain everything completely!

Great for anything in his speciality

If you are looking for a doctor who will listen to you and explain what & why he’s going to do something, you have found him. He has the added benefit of a wonderful bedside manner minus the arrogance found in doctors ( just because they are doctors, you have met a few if you’re reading this I’m sure). In all he’s a wonderful person who if you’re lucky enough to find him, give him a call. You will have an amazing doctor who is there for you without dodging your call’s no matter how silly you think the question or thought may be ( this isn’t a paid ad I promise, you have his cellphone number incase of anything no matter the time. Sorry, but I’ve never been able to reach a doctor 24-7 without going through a answering service and even then how many times do you get to talk to them? Not many from my experience and I’ve seen more doctors than I care to think about.) he’s always able to answer it or calm your pre surgery nerves. He’s great if you’re looking for anything in his specialty and if I could, he’d be my doctor for everything, but he’s only one person so I will settle for his specific fields.

Amazing Job

I went to Dr. Akkary for a neck lift. He did an amazing job. My results are better than I ever dreamed possible. On top of doing excellent work, Dr. Akkary was a caring and concerned doctor. The surgery center is clean and in excellent condition and the prices are more than reasonable. I highly recommend Dr. Akkary and his surgery center.

Liposuction and Tummy Tuck

I had liposuction in my arms, backfat, waist & hips in September 2022. I also just had a full tummy tuck two weeks ago. I am very pleased with all the work he has done on me. The most caring Dr. I have ever met. He deserves more than five stars and his staff are amazing nurses.
