Many men and women wish to change the appearance of their buttocks and seek buttock augmentation for improvement. Common complaints prior to surgery would include unhappiness about the size and shape of the buttocks or asymmetry. Buttock augmentation surgery uses implants, fat grafting or a combination of both to increase fullness, roundness and projection of the buttocks.

Liposuction is a procedure that involves the use of a suction machine to surgically remove excess fat from unwanted areas on the body. The best candidates for liposuction are men and women who have persistent bulges of fat that have not responded favorably to diet and exercise.
