Buttock Augmentation with HA Filler and Sculptra Before & After

These before and after Buttock Augmentation images are from actual patients of Dr James Lacey and Dr Mehrad Jaberi. He will help you understand your options and set realistic goals for your treatment.

As we age, our bodies produce less collagen, leading to thinner, more fragile skin and a loss of volume. For those looking to enhance and lift their buttocks, Sculptra and HA fillers offer a revolutionary solution. These fillers stimulate collagen production over time, providing a natural, smooth, and beautifully contoured appearance. 

Whether you’re aiming to correct hip dips or achieve a rounder, fuller buttock shape, these minimally invasive treatments, available at Kanata Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery can deliver impressive, lasting results.

What is Buttock Augmentation with HA Fillers and Sculptra?

Buttock augmentation with HA fillers and Sculptra involves the use of injectable fillers or bio-stimulators to enhance the size and shape of the buttocks. Unlike traditional surgical butt lifts or implants, this procedure is minimally invasive and involves less downtime. HA fillers and Sculptra are both FDA-approved and Health Canada Approved products used to increase volume, smooth out skin, and improve contours.

HA Fillers

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers, such as Juvederm and Restylane, are popular for their immediate volumizing effects. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body that retains moisture and provides elasticity and plumpness to the skin. When injected into the buttocks, HA fillers provide an instant lift and volume enhancement.

Sculptra

Sculptra is a poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) based filler that works differently from HA fillers. It stimulates collagen production in the body, leading to gradual and natural-looking volume enhancement over time. It’s perfect for those who are seeking a subtle, progressive improvement in their buttocks' appearance.

Here’s a quick overview of the differences between the two fillers:

What To Choose? Sculptra or HA Fillers for Buttock Augmentation?

To decide what filler is right for you, ask yourself:

  • Do I want immediate results or a gradual enhancement over time?
  • How much volume and lift do I desire?
  • How long do I want the results to last?
  • What is my budget for the procedure?

By considering these questions and discussing them with a board-certified medical professional like Dr James Lacey or Dr Mehrad Jaberi, you can determine the best filler option for your needs and preferences.

What are the Benefits of Buttock Augmentation with HA Fillers and Sculptra?

Buttock augmentation with HA fillers and Sculptra offers several advantages:

  • No need for large incisions or extensive surgery.
  • Enhances your natural curves without looking overdone. 
  • Minimal downtime compared to traditional surgery.
  • Your treatment is all about what you want, tailored to your unique style.
  • With Sculptra, it’s your results get better as time goes on, thanks to your body’s natural collagen boost.
  • HA fillers work their magic right away, giving you the results your looking for soon after treatment.

Post-Treatment Care for Non-surgical Buttock Augmentation

Post-treatment care is essential to ensure optimal results and minimize any side effects:

  • Avoid strenuous activities for the first 48 hours.
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing to avoid pressure on the treated area.
  • Regular check-ups with Dr Lacey or Dr Jaberi to monitor progress and address any concerns.
  • Hydrate and nourish your body to support the healing process.

What to Expect During the Procedure?

Here’s what you can expect during and after your buttock augmentation procedure with HA filler and Sculptra at Kanata Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery:

Consultation

Your journey begins with a thorough consultation at Kanata Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery. Dr Lacey or Dr Jaberi will discuss your goals, evaluate your anatomy, and develop a customized treatment plan.

Preparation

Before your appointment, you'll receive instructions on how to prepare, including any dietary or medication adjustments to minimize bruising and swelling.

Injection

HA fillers or Sculptra are injected into the buttocks using fine needles. The process involves multiple injections to achieve an even and natural-looking enhancement.

Post-Procedure

After the injections, the treatment area may be massaged to ensure even distribution of the product. You may also receive a bandage after the injections, but you can dress and drive yourself home.

Contraindications

The following folks should avoid this treatment:

  • Those with active infection or inflammatory skin disease
  • Those with a current sunburn. Sunburned skin is often sensitive and may be more prone to adverse reactions or discomfort during the procedure. 
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women. The safety of HA fillers during pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been established, so these treatments are not available during these times to minimize potential risks to both the mother and the baby.
  • Those with current or historical keloid scarring
  • Inform our nurses about any allergies or sensitivities you may have to filler ingredients or anesthetics. 
  • Disclose any medications or supplements you’re currently taking, including blood thinners or other medications that may affect bleeding or bruising.

Maintain a healthy lifestyle: A balanced diet and regular exercise can help maintain your new contours. 2. Regular physical activity: Engage in activities that tone and strengthen the gluteal muscles. 3. Lymphatic Massage: Post-treatment lymphatic massages can help reduce swelling and improve the appearance of the treated area. 4. Follow Post-Treatment Instructions: Adhere to the care guidelines provided by our nurses and created by Dr Lacey and Dr Jaberi for the best results.

FAQs

The fillers used for buttock augmentation are typically hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers or Sculptra. While they are similar to facial fillers, they are specifically formulated for body contouring, offering a thicker consistency to provide the needed volume and support.

Yes, you can correct hip dips with a non-surgical butt lift. Fillers can be strategically injected to add volume to the areas around your hip dips, creating a smoother and more balanced silhouette.

Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with an enzyme called hyaluronidase if you wish to reverse the results. Sculptra, however, is not reversible as it works by stimulating collagen production.

Non-surgical butt lifts are not permanent. HA fillers typically last around 12-18 months, while Sculptra can last up to two years or more as it gradually stimulates collagen production.

The number of sessions varies based on your desired outcome and the amount of filler used. Most people see significant results after one to three sessions.

Yes, you can walk home or ride your bike after the treatment. However, you might experience some swelling or discomfort, so it’s recommended to avoid strenuous activities immediately after the procedure.

It’s best to avoid intense physical activities, including gym workouts, for at least 48 hours after the treatment to allow the fillers to settle properly and to minimize any swelling or bruising.

For most people, Sculptra injections cause only minor discomfort. Your nurse injector can use numbing cream or a local anesthetic to help. Afterward, you might feel a bit sore or notice some swelling or bruising, but it usually goes away quickly. Overall, many find any discomfort to be tolerable.

Non-surgical buttock augmentation can enhance your buttocks’ appearance, but it may not fully replace a surgical butt lift. While non-surgical methods like injections can add volume and improve contour, a surgical butt lift can address more significant sagging and excess skin.
