Abstract:

The gluteal region is an important aesthetic symbol of the body and represents a major component of sexual attraction. Buttocks descent and atrophy are common presenting complaints for patients seeking elective improvement of their body. Gluteal surgery has a recent history of technique evolution, with various reported methods and refinements, including autologous tissue and alloplastic materials. It has been gaining popularity, and an exponential growth in buttocks procedures has been recorded in the recent years. Modern comprehensive gluteal rejuvenation must address both gluteal atrophy and ptosis. Gluteal implants can give a rounded and enhanced appearance to the buttocks while lifting in the form of excisional techniques can address the ptosis. These techniques may be applied together in one surgical procedure or performed in a staged sequence. This report describes the combination of lifting and enhancement techniques to achieve improvement in the gluteal region. An algorithm, to assist with decision making, based on the gluteal deformity encountered, is also proposed. Two separate clinical examples are described, a patient with gluteal implants with synchronous buttocks lift and a patient with pursestring gluteoplasty followed by gluteal implants at a later time. The presented algorithm will enhance the participants’ decision making process when encountering gluteal deformities. The audience will learn new and innovative approaches to gluteal augmentation through autologous and alloplastic techniques. With improved decision making ability, the audience will be positioned to offer cutting edge gluteal surgery in a safe and effective manner.

Abstract:

Large volume fat transfer for gluteal augmentation can be associated with long operative times and surgeon fatigue. Numerous modifications have been introduced to obtain fat in a more efficient method while improving fat graft take. A novel method for fat harvest involves Tissue Liquefaction Liposuction (Hydrasolve®). This technique allows for fat transfer that is removed with an atraumatic technique. Using this vehicle, we aim to show that large volumes of fat can be harvested and transferred safely, reliably, and with consistent results. Autologous gluteal augmentation with fat transfer is a commonly performed procedure. Hydrasolve® liposuction is a novel technique for fat harvesting that utilizes liquefaction of the fatty tissue. This results in minimal trauma both to the fat cells and surrounding tissues. Large volumes of fat may be harvested and transferred safely. We have seen excellent results with high rates of patient satisfaction, stable graft take, and minimal complications. This presents a novel technique for fat harvesting that utilizes tissue liquefaction. This technique allows the surgeon to rapidly remove fat while producing a bloodless, uniform layer of fat for grafting in a closed system. This technique for fat grafting improves the process for the surgeon and the outcome for the patient
