Q:

I would like to know is there a procedure to make the buttocks look fuller without having a buttock augmentation or lift?

A:

The buttocks can be enhanced by contouring just above them, in the flank area, with liposuction. Fullness in the flanks is typically a male contour problem, but often occurs in females as well. Re-contouring the flank can create a nice posterior curve that accentuates the female buttock. Similarly, contouring any fullness in the upper thighs will have a positive impact on the appearance of the buttocks. In my experience, liposuction of the flanks and thighs offers an excellent alternative to buttock implant and lift procedures.
