Body Procedures
The Female Thigh Gap defines the lower buttock diamond opening. An ideal lower medial buttock cheek border and upper medial thigh border create this opening.
When a female thigh gap is appropriately contoured, this region will add significant appeal to the lower buttocks and upper thigh region. The medial lower buttocks should have the appearance of a horizontal “J”. When the lower medial buttocks are full, it appears squared off and masculine. If deficient in volume, the medial buttocks cheek will look prematurely aged and often cellulitic and aesthetically unappealing. When squared off, the medial buttocks require refined liposuction to remove prominence and to round out the contour giving it the horizontal “J” appearance. When deficient, the lower medial buttocks requires accurate fat transfer to give it fullness. Often, the lower medial buttocks region has very tight retaining ligaments that require a double release technique that is critical to allowing for contour correction.
Read MoreOnce you’ve decided to have buttock augmentation surgery and consulted with your surgeon, the next step is to choose your implant shape. Surgeons use butt implants when a patient does not have enough body fat for a Brazilian Butt Lift (fat transfer). Picking the right style of implant is important not only for aesthetic purposes but also to prevent future complications. Many patients seek our guidance and ask whether they should choose round or oval-shaped implants. There is no one “best” implant for everyone because the right choice depends on each patient’s body shape and desired result. Here are some of the pros and cons of both:
Round implant shape:
are ideal because they reduce the risk of implant rotation.
are well suited for patients who are young and active because they will not rotate or cause future deformities.
provide lateral fullness giving the buttocks a very nice round, full shape and sought after “bubble butt” appearance.
Oval implant shape:
can offer a more subtle, natural shape
that doesn’t provide as much width and fullness as round implants.
pose a slight risk of rotating and causing future deformities.
During your initial consultation, an exact measurement of the buttock cheeks is needed in order to determine the diameter and implant shape that will fit and provide the best look and projection. Talk to your plastic surgeon, show pictures of what you are trying to achieve and they will be able to guide you in what implant is best. There are three brands of implants currently available on the market and in our office:
