Buttock fat grafting is not just about adding volume. It is also about shaping the silhouette by improving the waist to hip ratio. Simply making the buttocks larger can sometimes make the body look heavier, so the results depend on where the fat is taken from, how much is harvested, and the depth and placement of the injections. When planning the procedure, it is important to consider the patient’s body shape, the quality and distribution of fat, and the curves of the waist and pelvis. Without this balance, you may gain volume, but the overall shape can look awkward or uneven.
The key to a successful buttock fat transfer is not how much fat is injected but how evenly it is placed. Carefully layering purified fat in multiple levels helps it survive better and ensures that the shape remains natural over time.
