What Is It?
Buttock implants are solid silicone prostheses placed surgically within or under the gluteal muscles to add permanent volume and projection to flat or asymmetric buttocks. They are an alternative to fat transfer for patients who do not have sufficient donor fat for a BBL.
How It Works
Under general anaesthesia, an incision is made in the intergluteal crease (between the buttocks). The implant is placed either within the gluteus maximus muscle (intramuscular — preferred for stability) or under the muscle (submuscular). The incision is closed in layers.
Realistic Results
Permanent increase in buttock projection and volume. The implant is not affected by body weight changes the way transferred fat is. Results are immediately visible once swelling resolves at 4–6 weeks.
Recovery
Sitting is restricted for 2–3 weeks. A compression garment is worn for 6 weeks. Walking is encouraged from day 1. Full activity resumes at 6–8 weeks. The intergluteal scar fades over 12 months.

- !Capsular contracture (scar tissue forming around the implant)
- !Infection requiring implant removal
- !Seroma at the implant pocket
