Removal of excess fat from the buttocks and shaping can be done by a simple and gentle liposuction of the buttocks.
Liposuction removes localised fat through a cannula, while buttock augmentation adds volume using implants or transferred fat. Premier Clinic describes these approaches on separate procedure pages. Removing fat and adding volume are different aims, even when techniques are combined in an individual treatment plan.
| Approach | What the technique involves |
|---|---|
| Liposuction | Removing subcutaneous fat through a suction cannula after a tumescent solution is introduced. |
| Buttock augmentation | Adding volume with silicone implants or the patient’s own fat transferred from another area. |
The clinic’s tumescent liposuction information distinguishes reducing localised fat deposits from treating excess body weight. Its buttock surgery information explains that fat transfer requires enough donor tissue and that some transferred fat is absorbed during healing. These descriptions do not guarantee a particular shape or amount of volume.

Liposuction of the buttocks takes place under local anesthesia, the treated area is injected with a special tumescent substance containing an anesthetic substance that promotes numbness and adrenaline, which provokes the contraction of blood vessels, and this reduces bleeding. Excess fat is then aspirated using special fine liposuction cannulas connected to a suction device. The effect of the anesthetic is up to 20 hours. Buttock liposuction lasts about 2 hours, the patient puts on compression underwear after the procedure and goes home with postoperative instructions.
Buttock liposuction can be combined with other aesthetic liposuction procedures, abdominoplasty, breast reduction, etc.

Buttock liposuction is only suitable for a healthy patient. We recommend stopping blood thinners, including medicines containing acetylsalicylic acid, at least 2 weeks before the buttock liposuction procedure. It is good to know that in addition to being overweight, it does not solve the formation of cellulite.
Buttock liposuction is a bit more demanding than other liposuctions, yet effective. The treated area may show redness, swelling or bruising may form at the injection site, which disappears within a few days. Residues of tumescent solution may leak from the injection site in the first 3 days, which is normal. Showering is suitable up to 24 hours after the procedure, compression underwear must be worn for 2-6 weeks, except for personal hygiene. As a preventive measure, it is possible to apply a healing ointment to the wounds, which will be recommended to you by the attending physician, increase the drinking regime, we do not recommend visiting the solarium, sunbathing, sauna, swimming pool for about a month. We recommend a rest mode of at least 7 days, after about 2-4 days you can engage in light activities.
In the case of classic buttock liposuction, it is necessary to prevent the formation of bumps and other irregularities, so we recommend using wooden rollers and smoothing the skin with a gentle massage technique, just 30 minutes a day, about 14 days. We also recommend lubricating the treated area.
Adherence to the recommended postoperative instructions affects the final outcome. It can be seen after about 2 weeks, the final result after about 2 months.
